We’ve seen in the past and other popular maps that were recreated in Minecraft and we have to admit that it’s really amazing witnessing all of our favourite maps in Minecraft. Call it nostalgia or whatever, but it looks bloody great."

Counter-Strike 2 dev Ido Magal confirms that 960,000 accounts were VAC banned from the FPS in its ongoing clampdown on CS2 farming bots.
i mean thats a problem of their own design to begin with, but because it makes them so much money they won't change it. It's something that they at least ban a bunch but it's the absolute minimum that they're doing.
Must be a lot of inactive accounts, there's no discernible difference in the active player count on the Steam charts.

Mojang has partnered with Merlin Entertainments to build the world's first Minecraft theme park in the UK.

Ben Porter from Newzoo explains that the player base has very little overlap with mainstream hits such as Assassin's Creed: Shadows and Ghost of Yōtei
I used to buy cheap games thinking I’d play them later, but I always ended up returning to my favorites. Now I skip the deals unless I know I’ll play the game soon.
This is very true, my nephews grew up on these two games and whenever I introduce them a AAA game whether old or new, it's like seeing an alien try to make sense of it and then quickly lose interest in it.
Can’t really expect a 8 year old Roblox kid to go buy resident evil 9 lol
Gaming trends are so weird to me now. Like, I’m old school and games were consumed essentially how movies were. You play through a title and look forward to the sequel or other things that came out. Now, that is so not the norm.
The people who worked on the Zombiecraft mod should help to make this better. I would love to see a Counterstrike Minecraft multiplayer server.
