    If so, how did it changed your life? Did it make you a better person? Have you gained more skills in real life than before you played the game? How has it affected you in any way ?

    No, not really.
    It's just a game, and I treat it like that. If I were to ever let a game affect the way I treat other people or act myself, I would try to fix it pretty fast. Some people become very mean people from getting frustrated with games and other players.

    I don't think Minecraft or any other game will ever change my life. Minecraft, however, has introduced me to new community environments and of course friends. Minecraft introduced me the idea of DDoSing, swatting, dox, ect. because it is quite common in the community I play in, so there's that.

    Not really. Either way I would have gotten into mapping.

    I don't think so. It has just taken a lot of time out of my life. Lol. I have met a lot of cool people, but in general I dont think it has changed my life. That would be awesome if I could gain real life skills out of it.

    Not really. A game like this mainly is a time waster for me. It takes my mind of whatever may be bothering me in real life. Lets me forget for a little bit and blow off some steam.

    Sure, I can get away with saying that I became more creative ;). But really, not anything that I can see. I've met some people on the game, so maybe that made me more social? Well, even if it did, it did distract me from important things like schoolwork. So yes, Minecraft has changed my life. It's allowed me to waste time rather than actually do what I had to do xD. But I believe that I would've just picked up another game to get addicted to. Good thing that wasn't WoW.

    Not really no, but I'm glad that it exists.

    No, it's just a fun game for me to play on occasion.

    Minecraft hasn't changed my life, it is just a thing where I can go and waste some time when I am bored. I don't understand it when people say that a certain video game has changed their life. It isn't like I would care if Minecraft didn't exist, I would just play a different game instead.

    Not really. It's kept cured my boredom from time to time but that's truly about it.

    Kind of?

    It got me into a programming a little bit and made me a bit more creative-minded

    Minecraft hasn't changed my life. It's just a game to me; it's not going to be life changing unless I win money from it or it's so addicting that I cannot pry myself away from it.

    Nope, Minecraft didn't do anything to my life. Maybe less time used on my real life but other than that nothing else. As good as Minecraft is, it's just a game and we shouldn't let a game influence how we live.

    Not really. I have struggled with video game addiction before, so I make sure I control my playing time now. Minecraft is so addictive though so sometimes I play beyond my limit.

    I wouldn't go so far as to say it changed my life, but it is a great game that i still enjoy playing today. I suppose it made me a little bit more creative, and also helped me realize that i wanted to be an architect.

    Lol. Yeah it changed my life by making me not study for an exam in college, that is about it. I don't think Minecraft has the power the change someone's life....I mean it isn't the bible.

    I can say it has in a way. It's made me procrastinate, but at the same time it has made me more creative than before. They should make some kind of rehabilitation program for Minecraft, because I think I had around 400 hours in it when I was really into it. I used to have pretty bad grades of Cs and Ds, but I'm doing better now that I've quit that drug called Minecraft, haha.

    I can't really say it changed my life in any way. But I am definitely more creative after a few hundred hours building stuff. The game can be really beneficial.

    Wow that escalated quickly! It really didn't change my life but it really taught me how to be creative when it comes to my thinking. I mean, it really takes a lot of creativity and imagination to figure out that crafting thing.
