I got into Minecraft when my daughter expressed an interest, she picks it up from time to time, she built a world with just horse stuff and modded it herself. I moved her world to a server so she can pop on whenever she feels like it. I just figured out how to make it easy for her friends to play with her too.
I agree with NF, the gameplay is amazing. It's not about the graphics, but the graphics are next level beautiful, and anyone that says otherwise has never taken the time to play it.
Action, Exploration, Discovery, and truely free to do whatever you want. It's such an amazing game/program/tool. Buy the client once, server software is free. For like $30 it's a no brainer purchase.
Other games like Stardew Valley, while a little silly have some serious deep gameplay, and that one develper has been updating that game for more than 10 years at no charge. Buy the game once, and that's it. Game has always been $30. Worth every penny. (when it goes on sale)
Some of my new favorites, Dredge, Hades, Dave the Diver. I even spent money on Dwarf Fortress when it went retail (those guys deserved it).
