    80s kids play Minecraft? I was almost 30 when that was released and definitely missed that boat

        My 7 year old loves Minecraft and I’ve been learning about it, but could never see myself choosing to play it independently

          Lookup all the stuff you can do with Redstone. You can teach computer science inside Minecraft.

            This might come as a shock to the Lemmy community, but I have zero interest in ever learning how to code.

              Its electrical circuits not coding. But to each their own. I like my self sorting chests.

      I started playing it late 20s. It really is a game anyone can enjoy. Particularly the Java version with modpacks (some of these modpacks are probably actually unplayable by children because of how complicated and technical they are).

        My impression was that as i got older the minecraft audience got younger. So after 10 years the age difference to most other players went from -5 to +15
