10 Video Game Fan Theories That Change EVERYTHING
7. The Player Is The Last Human - Minecraft
On the surface of things, Minecraft looks like one of the most lighthearted games going, thanks mainly to its bright colours, open world and pixel art style.
But is this colourful world hiding a more sinister secret under its surface?
One theory suggests that each and every Minecraft world a player loads up is set in a post-apocalyptic land. As the theory goes, there was a terrible virus that has claimed the lives of every single person on the planet and left behind only the native animals and villager species.
The zombies found in the game are the last remaining remnants of the old civilisation and become a skeleton once they've been killed, and the creepers are an evolved mutant species from exposure to the virus.
The player controlled character of Steve now finds himself wandering through his baron world, forced to start again and begin rebuilding from scratch. Having this theory in mind every time a new world boots up is sure to add in an extra layer of depth to each playthrough, and will definitely change the way players look at the zombies, skeletons and creepers crawling around the world.
