So, i have a conundrum. I want to play minecraft, but I am absolutely seething at having to log in to my Microsoft account. I've owned Minecraft for over 10 years, but I've grown to despise Microsoft. I want an offline DRM-free Minecraft experience, and I've found versions of Prism launcher that support cracked game data, but I have no idea where to download cracked Minecraft. It's like it doesn't even exist. I'm tech savvy enough to download whatever game I want from the internet... except Minecraft??? Where is Minecraft?!

I'm also willing to simply download legitimate versions through my account one last time and then use a tool to crack them, but I can't find a way of doing that either. I beseech you, Lemmy users, how can I play Minecraft with my girlfriend without Michaelsoft being involved.

I couldn't ever get into Minecraft. Build craft yeah and other more in depth versions. One if the major things that turned me off the most was watching youtube. Before anything could be built but after watching people sink their life to make a flying plane or something insanely detailed. I don't even want to try.

comparison is the thief of joy

I agree. But it's so difficult not to when you watch people spend years making realistic jet planes with pistons. Makes me feel like my builds would be crappy.

Honestly, I never really focused on the "build this real life looking object in minecraft" aspect. The most fun I've had is while building farms, I'm not super smart so I do have to use tutorials and mods like Litematica but once they're finished, the joy of seeing all the resources pour in is amazing.

I also like doing mundane tasks like clearing a large patch of trees to make space for building another farm/building while listening to music or videos, it's really relaxing.

And yeah it's one of those games that are way more fun when you play with friends.

I guess the friends aspect would help alot. I don't have many friends due to Severe medical issues. I really want to try Minecraft again and add a ton of mods and play build craft again. I'm more interested in machines and building systems.
