You can't point out the collapsing cyberbuildings we don't have, and theres no virtual countries to declare somewhat unnecessary war on.

China and public utilities intrusions. They are an actual thing. As big a thing as the government would like to make it out to be? No. But the fact YOU don't see it doesn't mean it's not happening, either.

neither of those are huge (cyber)buildings in an important (virtual) city though, so the terrorism analogy is still kinda not fitting.

1. Being older isn't gonna help you there, unless you get a LOT older.
2. Psh. A lot can change in almost a decade. Don't get too depressed over your imminent lack of chickens until they hatch, even if you don't have many eggs at the moment...
3. Nah, soon as that starts becoming a regular thing I'm pretty sure requesting euthenasia will get enough popular support to be legal in most places.
4. See 1.
5. Not a real thing, don't worry about it. And if it becomes a real thing, well, everyone enjoys living in interesting times, right?
I ment it in a different way.
As in 'being young sucks because i'll probably be old in sucky times'

EDIT:
Also, the stupidity of people keeps annoying me.
The millions of 'GenericMinecraftLetsPLayer has sent you a video!'
'YO CHECK OUT MAH LP BRAH I DONT SPEAK DUTCH BUT I FOUND YOUR DUTCH VIDEO (insert literal video name here) AWESHUM EVEN TOUGH I DIDNT LIKE NOR COMMENT SO YEH WATCH THIS VIDEO AND YOUR LIFE WILL BE LIEK 1000 TIMES MOAR AWESHUM!'
annoy me too :(

No. It's the fact I took a half day off from work and I might as well have fucking stayed.

With the game having been up for almost 20 goddamn hours worldwide so far, people in the US have been playing for almost 10, NOW they decide the servers need to come down for almost 4 goddamn hours. People that were playing earlier seem to be able to reconnect just fine, but anyone that hasn't already started a game once is completely locked out.

It's a vindication of why always-on is a stupid, pointless waste of everyone's goddamn time except Blizzard's. I think I'm just as pissed at myself because I knew this was going to happen, just like it does with every major MMO. Except Diablo was never an MMO and now the same goddamn problems have been laid at our feet.

I don't mean this in any aggresive way, but: why did you buy the game? It was common knowledge that they were implementing this DRM bullshit, and the way I hear it, it has been dumbed down a lot, and is rife with annoying microtransactions. For me at least there are enough reasons to avoid it like the plague

Because about 8 people I know were getting it, and despite its short comings there are many good things about it. I've been waiting for this game since I started college, a lifetime ago.

But goddamnit, this is exactly what we said we were afraid of 6 years ago when they told us it would be mainlined to their servers. My hope was that if they were going to jam a connection up our collective asses that it would at least work. And considering that people were pre-loaded days, weeks and months ago, and the game has been officially live for 24+ hours now....I expected more than this. Certainly not 3 hours of downtime for a singleplayer game.
