did anyone else think minecraft was a HORROR GAME at first??? #minecraft

Did anyone else think Minecraft was a horror game when they were first introduced to it? Imagine this is your first ever time playing Minecraft? It’s really peaceful off the get- go. So, you make your first ever world. So, you get down and start exploring the world with this lovely new music that you found. That’s one way your first impression of Minecraft could be. Or maybe it’s this official trailer from 13 years ago. Let’s go to a place where everything is made of blocks, where the only limit is your imagination. It’s a really nice first impression. I wish I could say the same for myself. I actually had a Minecraft nightmare before I’d even seen or played Minecraft. I was 9 or 10 when I was first introduced to Minecraft by one of my friends. See, we didn’t have a family computer, but he had his own gaming PC. Everyone else had a Nintendo Wii, but he also had a gaming PC, and he introduced me to Minecraft. Here’s what Minecraft looked at that time. You’d expect him to say, “Wow, there’s just so many beautiful forests, cute little animals. You should try and play the game if you can.” Nope, that wasn’t how. You see, the game he told me about before was Slenderman. So, I assume this was another horror game because of how he presented it. I don’t know why I remember this so well, but this is exactly what he told me. When it turns nighttime, monsters appear like spiders that are the size of you. One of the monsters will silently sneak up on you and explode when it finds you. There’s a monster that can shoot fire that’s going to burn your house down. Then, I had a nightmare that night that a fire shooting monster burned down my house in real life. And I hadn’t even seen a block of Minecraft yet. And then me and my brother decided to buy it 2 years later. And now I’m here playing Minecraft for my job.

  1. I remember that my cousin was telling me a bout both minecraft and Fortnite, so I got the two confused, and had a nightmare of shooting a blocky photo-realistic skeleton getting shot with my gun and sliding off blue ice into the void. Fun times, fun times. Absolutely hated the idea of minecraft, until I unmixed them.

  2. nah I downloaded it when I was like 3-4 and called my brother to ask him what to do cuz I didn’t know I could punch trees😔 it was more of a “hey ur stupid learn this”

  3. First time I played survival mode in Minecraft I spawn in a forest at night time and it was foggy. I walk like five blocks and then I hear zombie sound. I got off that world so fast.

  4. Before I ever played it, I had friends telling me super fake minecraft myths that I believed about slenderman killing you if you sleep so you can't sleep in a bed, herobrine, all of that type of stuff. I believed it even after I started playing the game

  5. When I first played Minecraft I was so scared because it was dark and when it was nighttime I would give my brother the Wii so he could play during nighttime

  6. I got minecraft pocket edition for free on my first ever device which was an old asus tablet back then before the aquatic update on the pocket edition

    I got scared at the first night from a zombie attacking me

    I got so scared that i deleted the game off the bat

    One of my biggest mistakes is deleteing it

  7. I still get flashbacks remembering living in my dirt hut seeing a creeper for the first time.. scared me shitless when I heard the hiss at my dirt door way

  8. My first experience my cousin put me on hard-core mode played until it turned nighttime and then gave me it and said "okay its your turn now" I died within the first few seconds

    I'm just glad I had already played fnaf (I was 7)

  9. First played minecraft when i was about 4 or 5 i think, up until i was about 8 or 9 there were multiple instances of me nearly being banned cos i was terrified of the creepers

  10. so i got minecraft on an iphone when i was six and my first memory of play was dying over and over to a spider because i accidently kept pressing crouch and so i thought the spider was poisoning me and so wanna know what i did i got this shady mod app and downloaded shaders that looking back were really good for random shaders but i thought shaders made the game less hard and stuff like that so i loaded back in at immediately got jump scared and had to take a break from minecraft and watch some videos witch kinda spoiled my minecraft journey

  11. The most horrifying thing I've expierienced was being jumpscared in the middle of a mineshaft by a creeper,gladly,I had a shield and got just far enough away to where I didn't need it

  12. First time I ever played Minecraft was when I was, like, 11 I think so I tried it and it was so calm and peaceful…I was young and playing late at night so Minecraft scared me so much I cried myself to sleep that night.
    Now, it’s the only game I play and will forever have a special place in my heart.

  13. i was introduced to minecraft by youtubers when i was 6, so when i turned 7, i got gifted minecraft from my grandparents, and i was so happy and excited to play it. so, when i finally played it, everything was going fine, until i was going to mine in a cave for the frist time, but then the random creepy ass cave sounds and i was so scared, bro. i seached what they meant on youtube, and i found those videos talking about how they may be connected to herobrine. that very night i had a nightmare about it.
    anyway i still play it lol

  14. Well this brings back memories lmao, back when I first played MC it was so empty and silent that I swore something was gonna pop up and jump scare me 😅

  15. The first time I saw Minecraft was when I was exploring a survival world but there were buildings of castle ruins and abandoned mansions, and I was terrified
