Minecraft has become a nostalgic form of coping for a generation just now entering adulthood.
“Some girls came by to check out the house,” my housemate tells me. “I would’ve let them in, but I was rippingHis excuse is common within my house lately. It pairs nicely with the endless babbling of five keyboards that permeates through our shoddy, thin walls and floors, the echoes looping through the Discord call connecting people only a floor apart. Locked away from the clicking and clacking in my room, I hear a subdued “goddamn creeper!” and groan.
Every year, I wrack my brain for an explanation; most of my housemates would rarely call themselves “gamers,” so how do they get enveloped inso frequently? One housemate posits that it’s relaxing, that the game is so ingrained in their memories the act of playing becomes leisure. They often spend hours in-game making little progress, instead focusing on harvesting and replotting their crops while making banal small talk together.
At times, though, nostalgia can look a lot like a drug from the outside; the constant, itchy desire to play looks more like an addiction than anything else. Their vision clouds with the pure adrenaline and euphoric hit of nostalgia that comes from their yearly excursions back into. They are glued to their seats for hours on end staring at blocks and farming for the elusive item they need for their checklist.
