Author's note: I am considering "Mastered" as acquiring all achievements.

I played this on and off for years with my brothers and that's where the game shines. I got no joy creating in this world alone. And after hundreds of hours, I was happy relying on the creativity and ingenuity of player realms to hastily complete the remaining objectives.

I prefer more goal-oriented play. So while I appreciate the creative nature of Minecraft, it was never totally in my wheelhouse.
