I personally think that Minecraft is pointless and boring. But i know a lot of people enjoy it due to its ability for creative building. I just like fps games and uninstalled Minecraft in the first 10 mins.

- What do you think causes Minecraft to get boring? : r/Minecraft
A lot of people get bored of Minecraft after a week or two, and I wanted to ask why people think it happens. I personally think it’s people finishing everything too fast and automatic farms.
The speed at which everything happens in the game, in my opinion, makes people bored because there is no adventure in it. It feels like a race done by rote. However, what if we could improve our tools not by placing 3 iron and 2 sticks on a crafting table but by using a machine or something similar? I have a suggestion for this.
Jan 17, 2022 · I believe, however, that there is a core reason why so many people, myself included, find minecraft terribly boring after a short while. The lack of CHALLENGE. Game progression is too quick to a point in which you dont have to sweat or even take any kind of care to kill mobs, obtain resources (Fortune III, anyone?) or do nearly anything.

Compared to other games, Minecraft's Survival Mode is lacking in depth and complexity.
Mojang Studios' Minecraft is an unstoppable juggernaut of a title, with the game notably crossing 131 million monthly active users in the last year. Minecraft also happens to be the best-selling game of all time, and despite being a decade old, it still frequently occupies a very high spot on Twitch and YouTube viewership leaderboards.
Overall, it's clear that pretty much everyone loves Minecraft. However, that doesn't mean there's not room to improve, and one part of the game that could definitely use some improvement is its Survival Mode. Here's why.
The core issue I have with Survival is that due to how easy and simple it is (even on Hardcore), the game never pushes you to meaningfully interact with any of its building or crafting systems. The game practically showers you with food everywhere you look, and it's possible to create iron armor, iron weapons, a shield, and a bow within 15 minutes of spawning if you know how to find the ore. Once you get to that point, the survival part of Survival Mode is over with — you'll never be threatened by more than a handful of basic mobs at any one time, and any difficult mobs you encounter can be taken down easily from range or with a basic kiting strategy. Even Minecraft's iconic "first night" has become a joke; it used to be something everyone feared, but once players realized all you needed to survive it was a dirt cube, the tension that originally made overcoming the first night special evaporated.
I'm the kind of player that likes to have reasons beyond my own boredom to build advanced structures, explore, and hunt down specific crafting materials for new items. Currently, Minecraft doesn't provide many reasons to do these things, and that's because most items and structures I can build in the game lack purpose. Why bother making potions or using enchantments when staying safe is laughably easy already? Why should I build a fort when a dirt hut is just as effective at keeping mobs out at night?
So, how are some ways that Mojang can flesh out Minecraft's Survival Mode? Some ideas I've had include:
•Roaming mob hordes that can overwhelm the player in direct fights, incentivizing them to build defensible structures.
•Allowing mobs to break through dirt, encouraging the use of sturdier building blocks.
•A higher average number of enemies in general to make combat a bit more difficult.
•New types of ores and equipment to lengthen and expand progression.
•More dungeons that reward the player with valuable loot, incentivizing exploration.
I wholeheartedly believe that Minecraft will be a better game if Mojang fleshes out Survival Mode with new mechanics and mobs that increase the difficulty and drive players to engage more with making potions, using enchantments, building advanced structures, and the game's other systems. That being said, it's also important for Minecraft to stay true to its identity as a creativity-focused survival game accessible to both children and adults. I don't want Minecraft to become too intense or difficult; I just want the game to be a little tougher so that Minecraft doesn't feel like it's bloated with novelty items and mechanics you'll never use.
The best way that Mojang could introduce a revamped Survival Mode is to make it a different difficulty option you can select when creating a world, similar to the Hardcore setting we have now. This would make it so that fans who prefer the original Survival Mode could still play it, while "Survival Mode+" would be there for folks like me.
Do you agree with me that Minecraft's Survival Mode is boring and needs an overhaul, or do you think it's fine as it is? Let me know. Minecraft is available now on Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and Windows 10 (and Windows 11) PCs. It's one of the best Xbox games ever, so we definitely recommend picking it up.

The game itself isn't repetitive and boring, the way you play it is. I found out that in order to have fun in Minecraft you need to have a set goal that you'll work for. For example, your initial goal when you start the game is to beat the dragon.
