Struggle: Dealing with the sheer magnitude of the world has definitely been a struggle for me. On multiple occasions, I've wandered away from my home base in search of resources and gotten hopelessly lost.
Accomplishment: This isn't an in-game accomplishment but an offline one. My younger sister has been a huge fan of Minecraft for the past couple of years, and until now, I wasn't able to understand her exuberant enthusiasm and love for the game. Over the course of this project, she has helped me immensely, giving me pointers and answering all my questions. There never has been much overlap in our hobbies or interests, so it feels great to have this point in common. Minecraft may be played online, but its effects offline are definitely palpable.
Observation: I love the game's endless creative possibilities. For the time being, I'm still struggling to eke out a living, but nonetheless, I've gotten a taste of what I could potentially accomplish through the Minecraft medium. If we all collaborate, we could create some pretty cool things together.
Question: What can we do as a class to be more cooperative? If we can figure out a way to distribute tasks and work together, we could accomplish so much!
