Welcome. I’m going to share some secrets—or rather, points—about Minecraft that might actually make sense (or at least contain a shred of logic). This is just my opinion, though; you might agree, or you might not—I’m not sure.
First, let’s look at the key elements of the game. Naturally, the protagonist is Steve. The world is massive—spanning 3.6 billion square kilometers, or seven times the size of Earth—and is inhabited by monsters such as zombies, skeletons, and malicious explosive creatures, as well as long-nosed cave dwellers. There is a dragon that must be defeated to complete the game, and a Nether realm that helps you acquire various valuable items.
Now, let's move on to the secrets.
Let's move very, very, very far away, To begin with, everything was normal—people were normal, and the world was just as it should be. Then, one day, a stranger arrived at an orphanage and spotted a boy named Steve. He decided to take him along. As they left, they got into an all-black car; everyone inside was masked—there were eight of them in total. They restrained Steve and administered a sedative, then headed toward a secret facility known as Area 68. Upon arrival, they placed Steve in a cell. They treated him well—providing three meals a day, video games, and a television—but he was never allowed to leave.
Meanwhile, someone was striking a deal with the Devil to gain the ability to create interdimensional portals, allowing him to travel between Earth and Hell.
Now, let us return to Steve. Seven years had passed, and he had grown up to work at the nuclear reactor facility that controlled all nuclear reactors worldwide. While Steve was transporting extraterrestrial samples recovered from meteorites, someone shoved him; a small amount of the substance spilled onto his hand, while another sample fell into the reactor core. Steve felt dizzy and collapsed. Guards rushed in and confined him to a holding cell, unsure of the substance's effects on humans. They observed his eyes flickering on and off, the ground beneath him trembling, and his body distorting and expanding to accommodate the massive muscles surging within him; he grew to a height of two meters. At that moment, a pact was struck with the Devil to create gateways to Hell; however, the Devil—being treacherous—betrayed his partner and unleashed an invasion of pig-like demons upon the world. Amidst this chaos, the world's nuclear reactors exploded due to the alien substance. The world fell into ruin; everything was stricken and disfigured. Toxic vapors dissolved the entire solar system—save for the Moon and the Sun—causing the other planets to melt and be drawn toward Earth, reshaping it into something new. Steve lay buried beneath the rubble. Millions of years later, he suddenly awoke; unaware of what had transpired, he simply set out to gather wood.
This is the story of the world; now, let us find out the stories of the characters.
Where did the monsters come from?
To understand this, we must go back to the *Minecraft* version "rd-20090515." Back then, pressing the "G" key would spawn a multitude of "Steve" characters; they had no specific purpose and moved aimlessly. However, following numerous updates—which we might call "eras"—they gained consciousness. They began gathering resources, building villages, and slaying monsters. Yet, they eventually grew weary and collapsed because their creator was absent; they decomposed into zombies—transformed by the very chemical substance that had caused it all—and later transitioned from zombies into skeletons. As zombies, they lacked minds—effectively reborn and knowing nothing, eventually succumbing to hunger—but upon becoming skeletons, they possessed the experience gained during their time as zombies.
As for those who were in space, they consumed a fruit that granted them the ability to teleport—and they ate it in abundance. The fruit was composed of the same material found in meteorites, causing them to become afflicted with a condition that disfigured them and made them tall; at that time, they were peaceful. However, Steve awoke with glowing white eyes and traveled straight to space to discover the cause of his transformation. Upon seeing the tall, transformed beings, he believed they were responsible for his state; he would look into their eyes and kill or torture them. Consequently, whenever these disfigured creatures lock eyes with someone and recall him, they kill anyone who looks at them.
Steve saw himself as a hero—and a brilliant one at that—so he named himself Herobrine. Centuries later, a strange entity was born: pitch-black with glowing white eyes. Herobrine fought this being but lost; the stranger seized his power, erased his memory, and cast him into an unknown place. Yet, a tiny fragment of that power remained within Steve—unnoticed and unknown to him.
Villagers are the result of an infection that took hold of the people, instilling in them a greed for emeralds—prized for their life-affirming green hue. Although the gem serves no practical purpose, they agreed to adopt it as their official currency; consequently, emeralds have become scarce, as their insatiable greed led them to hoard nearly the entire supply.
This is all I have arrived at after extensive research; thank you for reading this.
