Introduction
Minecraft has been on the gaming market for more than four years now. Unsurprisingly, many people are still playing it. What could be the prime reason gamers are still enjoying this game Is it that addictive What are the aspects that regular video game players saw that are making them play it for that long Does this game will ever get old in the eyes of gamers

It is safe to say that the answer for that last question will be a no. Why Well, it is a fact that Minecraft is not story driven. It does not make use of NPCs to relay a story, and there is no story to tell anyway. Alternatively, the players of this game do not need to fulfill any quest. They are perfectly to do anything that they want. Fundamentally, it does not provide any goal that a player must achieve. Actually, there are some, but they are not essential to the player s progress in the world. In a nutshell, it has a game without an ending. It is up to the player to decide when he will stop.
So, what is the element that is keeping Minecraft fans playing the game The answer to that is a bit tricky, and it depends upon the player. That element is the player s creativity. As long as they have something they think they can do in Minecraft, they will do it. In a certain extent, one can say that Minecraft is a tool - an excellent tool for unleashing one s imagination and enabling one s desire to create.
Of course, people have their limits. They cannot do the same thing every time or look at the same world all of the time. Too much playing and seeing the same thing over and over and over again will trigger a certain emotion - boredom.
With that statement, another question arises. How can Minecraft prevent their players from getting bored That is an easy question to answer. Customization. Customization has been the core trait or feature of Minecraft that has kept its players playing. By allowing the players to customize the game s content, the players are actually creating a new game for themselves. It might be still Minecraft, but due to customization, players have the ability to make their games turn stale and dreary.
Try to observe the other games in the market. What do they have in common nowadays DLCs. Downloadable Content. With those snippets of the game, players can add something new to their old game, which put them under the illusion of they are doing or playing something new.
In Minecraft, almost everything can be customized. And the book will focus on customizable textures. For those who are unfamiliar with textures, try to digest the following explanation.

RPG - Medieval Texture Packs
Texture packs can be divided into several themes. And the first theme that you will read is the RPG/Medieval theme. Apparently, it is the most popular theme of all. Well, it cannot be helped since Minecraft is like an RPG sans a story.
Author s Note:
Anyway, before you begin picking the theme you want, you should take note of the following:
The list is sorted according to the Minecraft version the texture packs are compatible with.
Using a pack that is made for an older version might cause some issues if you install them on a newer version of Minecraft. It is possible to prevent those issues from surfacing by using third party tools or patches.
The Minecraft community and fans made all of the packs listed here.
All the packs here can be found on www.minecrafttexturepacks.com .
The popularity item data is based on the number of downloads and shared posts of a texture pack. Each point represents a thousand share or download. All items that are scored with 10 points have exceeded 10,000 downloads and shares. Technically, they are certified to be popular. However, the popularity of a pack does not determine its quality.
Using a high-resolution pack can slow down your game if you not using a powerful computer.

1.John Smith Legacy
In case you want to play Minecraft like a typical medieval RPG (Role Playing Game), then John Smith Legacy will make that come true for you. The texture pack has nice wood block texture, and its stone tiles are well designed to fit the typical stone roads made centuries ago. It is an improved version of the old John Smith texture pack that was very popular back then.

Popularity: 10.0 / 10.0
Version: 1.7
2.Wayukian Pack
Yet again, this pack offers RPG textures to your Minecraft blocks. However, if you compare it to the John Smith texture pack, it has fewer details. Most probably it is caused by its small resolution, which is 16x16. Nevertheless, this is ideal to use by players who have less than powerful computers. Despite its minor setback, it can still deliver the RPG feel that you want. Also, the textures that it has for the Nether world are extremely nice.
