A few of my peers had posted on their clansite a game called "Minecraft".
Just a link, nothing more.
First thoughts:
*Either an annoying puzzle game or some sort of World of Warcraft RPG.*
I disreguarded the suggestion, and moved on.
The next day, that little link was still in the chat box, I was bored, so I clicked it. Meh, might as well register while im at it. Loading a single player map..."hmm....wierd, but lets see what other people have made" Went on a multiplayer map "WOWZERS".
I soon was drawn in like a moth attracted by a light-bulb.First few sessions were about 5 minutes, now I find myself playing hours at a time on the clan server.
Then I considered purchasing it. "Well, its 10Euros...should be at least 11USD." I looked at the benefits: custom skins, cheaper to buy now then later, benefits in the long run...Well I found myself hooked, so I knew I may be here for a while. Got out Paypal, got ready for purchase....
"15 DOLLARS AND FIFTY CENTS HOLY POOPOO!"
Five extra dollars, ouch. Well, better get this over with
*Clicks 'Checkout'.
Well, I got my little custom skin of solid snake, and I believe this will become a great game worth the 15 USD I spent.
Here's to an investment I believe will be worth it.

Hello Minecraft community.
Cool story bro.
Serious: Welcome to the Minecraft community and game, watch for griefers, and build for the love of sponge!
Welcome! I'm glad you actually gave this wonderful game a shot. And purchasing it now was definitely a wonderful idea and will be worth it even more so the second Notch moves to beta.
This seems to be similar to most peoples stories. I saw my brother playing it, played for a few hours and couldn't stop and found myself buying it :tongue.gif: The price is excellent.
I was linked by an internet pal. Who has since left cause he can't spare £9 (No, he really can't). I complained a lot about the cost, but tbh since buying it I feel a lot differently about paying for indie games. :smile.gif: I'm even considering making another donation when survival comes out.
Welcome!
If you consider that a $60 blockbuster game might give you 20 hours of gameplay, Minecraft is an amazing deal. I've gotten countless hours out of it.
