10 Video Games Gamers Will Never Agree On

10. Minecraft

Minecraft feels like the antithesis of most modern AAA games, in two key ways.

Firstly, the game is built almost entirely around the creation of structures rather than their destruction. Games like Crackdown and Just Cause have earned millions by allowing players to destroy whole buildings in the most thrilling way possible, while series such as GTA, Battlefield and Call of Duty continue to implement more and more realistic explosion mechanics into each entry.

Therefore, it is incredibly surprising to be playing a game where the sole aim is to build. Sure you can blow stuff up and you have to break rocks to hold them, but the ultimate aim of raw creation was one virtually unheard of when Minecraft released.

Minecraft also differs in its complete lack of gameplay objectives. Almost all games, whether it's Super Mario or Fallout, are pushing players towards a particular objective. Minecraft offers virtually none of this, inviting players to come up with their own goals and projects.

As such, there will always be a certain group of players who just don't 'get' Minecraft. While some love the freedom offered by Mojang's classic, there are certainly those who will never really enjoy what the game has to offer.
