Creepers (Minecraft)
You’ve just spent countless hours gathering materials and building yourself a little cabin in the woods. You’re about to start on the last piece of your house, a small garden, when you hear a hissing sound coming from behind you. In the last seconds before the creeper detonates itself and destroys all your hard work, you wonder what you ever did to deserve this.
Almost every Minecraft player has a story similar to this. Creepers, Minecraft’s green walking bombs, don’t care about all the work it took to build a massive stone mansion or intricate road system. They only care about destruction. Seeing hours of work disappear in a second is infuriating and creepers only trigger when they’re close to a player, which makes their destruction personal. They’ll look you in the eyes as they destroy hours worth of work. That’s cold. Creepers aren’t just annoying; they’re cruel.
