So the new update was out this week. We got ourselves a new jungle biome and the new tameable ocelot, which I have to say - it's unbearably cute, although damn frustrating to tame!
So cute :)
I think it just shows the general difference between cats and dogs though. You've got the wolf, which you chuck a bone and tah dah! Easily tamed. Easily satisfied. Just like in real life. However, cats are of course more complex. Just like in real life. You've got to feed these buggers raw fish three times. Which seems easy right? No. No, no, no. You have to wait until the ocelot comes to YOU. One of the most frustrating things EVER. But well worth it, when you see them change into a tabby cat once they're tame. I'm so going to be a crazy cat lady on MC now, compensating for my lack of cats in my tiny terraced home.
The jungle biome is pretty damn impressive when you first trundled upon it. You're just overcome with lots and lots of green and trees. Very very tall trees. The urge to climb and make yourself a tiny treehouse is too much to bear, and you end up scouting out for the biggest tallest tree around.
I've only been playing Minecraft for around 7 months now, but i've become highly addicted. It's such a relaxed casual game, that it's easy to play whenever. It's brought me plenty of memories too - the main one of bringing me and Nevenge together. Soooo many hours we would sit on skype to one another playing on our server, deciding whether we should build a hospital or magistrates court next, in our tiny pixellated city.
We laughed, shared tunes, and built. A lot. One thing lead to another and well. 7 months later he's living with me and we still play on Minecraft together, sometimes even for nostalgia sake :) A great game of ours is diamond shots. A shot for every diamond vein we find. It worked well until I managed to find 8 veins in 1 hour once. Can you say, hangover central?
Rare freaky glitch mode, double Nevenge? Too much to handle!
Some of the most elaborate tasks i've taken on have been the Disney Princess castle, various Pokemon, a full on city and a pirate boat. I don't think i'll ever tire of endlessly mining small blocks. And making random shit. It's therapeutic. And when my days have been that little bit stressful, nothing quite relieves that stress than hacking up some zombies with a raw pork chop.
Nevenge showing me his love for me ;)
But of course the obsessive person I am, I couldn't leave Minecraft to the confines of my Mac. That would be cruelty! So along came the papercraft :)
When Valentines Day came along, I couldn't not make something Minecraft related for Nevenge. So low and behold - my Minecraft Valentines Day card. How incredibly romantic of me eh?
Since I've been playing it so many updates have been added, and so much exciting content. Enchantment tables, more items, Endermen, Nether Fortresses, The End! And of course creative and hardcore mode.
If you've not played Minecraft, I suggest you have a go. It's well worth it and everyone I know who has played it, just keeps on playing it. It's addictive, let's put it that way :)
Mojang just keeps throwing more and more wondrous goodness at this game and it just makes me wanna blubber about it constantly. But I don't. Because I'm not THAT mentally unstable... *secretly blubbers*
Look at that hair...
ReplyDeleteIt's impressive :)
