One Block at a Time: How Minecraft Lost Its Simplicity (Retrospective)

Minecraft has evolved and changed significantly since it's creation, going from a simple game filled with charm and potential, to a more complex game filled with stuff to do. This video will take a look into how Minecraft lost that simplistic sandbox feeling and took on a more linear style of gameplay through pre-classic, classic, indev, infdev, alpha, beta and the full release of the game. Just one block at a time.
