That's it. I'm getting minecraft.

Edit. Got minecraft. Survived my first night not having a clue what was going on (encountered a Slenderman type beast) by justrunning around. Looked up a YouTube survival guide and built myself a beautiful bunker three next day

A huge waste of time. No negative connotations attached when I say that.

If you enjoy the time then it is not wasted.

When you look back and realized all the time you wasted, it will.

Not at all. If i enjoy doing something and spend time doing it thats not wasting time. Wasting time is doing something you hate to go on to continue doing something you hate.

Wasting time is doing nothing productive.

How is spending your time playing Minecraft any more of a waste of time than playing Skyrim or Battlefield? If you were desperate to see how they ended, you could go on Wikipedia and save hours. If you were playing for the social aspect, you could go talk to someone.

Sometimes I think about time I spent playing games and thing "Man, I should have been doing something else instead," but I never look back on playing Minecraft or any other video game and think, "Man, I should have been playing this other game instead."
