There are any number of crowdsourced projects, not to mention pretty much the entire open source software world, that disproves this.
smellyboots
That looks like a lot more fun than scrubbing diarrhea from a toilet bowl.

"People would never innovate if they couldn't profit off of it." Tell that to people who mod games.
FuzzieLumpkins
building a mod for a computer game and designing the next space station are on a different level bud. Different kind of innovation lol.
whatsisname
A lot of skilled people would be happy to design space stations as long as their other needs are taken care of. You think all the engineers
whatsisname
doing HVAC for shitty commercial buildings do it because it's interesting?
FuzzieLumpkins
no, they do it because they sucked too much to get the space station design jobs. Sucks to suck.
Whipawa
I really hate that negative and actually lazy peoples spread this as a rumour. People are not inherently good nor bad, they can change.
OaksParcel
Reminds me of Acre in the first Assassin's Creed.
brandsilven
No, no, no. People will not do work for *other people* for free.
dreikommavierzehn
Which is true for alot of things but completely disregards voluntary work, and those people deserve major credit.
brandsilven
Fair enough. :)
ebap
Physical and virtual work are different no? Like virtual work might be considered fun?
SmolTenk
66% of U.S. firefighters are volunteers, hows that for "real work".
ozjuggler
Not at all. You could design a large machine or analyse a policy's impact, and that would be useful work with no physical dimension to it.
darkdragonempress
People do arts and crafts for fun and that generally requires various amounts of labor.
DonaldFuck
They did move their fingers.
SacrificesForCthulhu
It's not really work if it's your passion.
ForMyOwnAmusement
Minecraft? pffft, ever heard of GNU? Linux?
Dignato
Honestly I think MOST of the work people do is for free. Cleaning, cooking, chores and shit are all work you're doing.
Bugofbelgium
Yea, better kill yourself so you don't have to breath.
JudgeMentalCat
Marx actually discussed this in several of his books- how some of the most critical work in society is done for free, enforced by
JudgeMentalCat
gender roles and the idea of the nuclear family.
FuzzieLumpkins
also cooking for yourself isnt 'work' its just fucking cooking for yourself and living lol
rollercostarican
lol nah its work, cuz you could just as easily order food on seamless
IAmTheOneCuttingTheOnions
I mean if people could avoid it and still have a clean, comfortable space and everything where you want it, people wouldnt do it
FuzzieLumpkins
if cleaning, cooking, 'chores and shit' are MOST of the work you are doing, you arent working very hard.

Yes but the difference is, they did it for fun. Which is the best. Except for not getting paid.

WesterosCraft, just a group of people doing it as a hobby
MorrighanWolf
Nope
mikeman
As far as I know it's from a donation based server called WesterosCraft that has been recreating all of westeros in a Minecraft map.
makelthappen
I'm pretty sure it was a group of people, or maybe that was something else, but there is usually a group

Yeah one person doing this would take an obscene amount of time. Definitely multiple people.

Someone or someones built a 1to1 replica of the Enterprise D in Minecraft

Assklowne
This is the difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation
MagikMoose
But building a city in minecraft is much easier
zakisback
'Work' implies that someone finds monetary value in the production and mutual transaction of the product. This wasn't work, it was hobby.
chumpacabra
Also, you can spend a lifetime and a fortune building something but there will always be someone out there willing to destroy it for free
DontLookBackInAnger
People will do the work that interests them.
theyar
And that gives them a sense of accomplishment and achievement.
InTheDistanceAPlaintiveEnglishHorn
And?
whakalaka
Mozilla firefox it's an example of people working for free
RelativeVelocity
Hobbies are a thing
coreyjayb
Which is not always productive work unfortunately
dovebair
It's not unfortunate: it's a very important fact that humans should accept. Then we could focus on problem-solving and not production
coreyjayb
Solving problems is productive.
dovebair
I would argue that problem-solving falls under increasing efficiency, whereas production must produce something.
coreyjayb
Semantics. I was referring to any useful work
shinydev
Sounds like we need better games.
krisslanza
I'd say that's a good thing. Who wants to productive work, when you can re-create stuff in video games?!
DontLookBackInAnger
I can attest to that. I’ve built more elaborate settlements in Fallout 4 than is probably healthy.
Ivain
Considering how much 'productive' work is getting automated, that's a good thing. Sure, we're decades off, but we can't just flip a switch.
NaughtButOne
"decades off". It's much closer than that.
pyrrhlis
Dirty, Dull, or Dangerous
BeginnersLuck00
I don't understand what you mean
Ivain
That's the basic idea of paying someone though. You've got work needs doing, but its boring/tedious or difficult. So you pay someone.
Ivain
A good policy is that if someone is gonna make a profit off it, working for them for free/exposure is out of the question
InTheDistanceAPlaintiveEnglishHorn
Productive is not the same as useful. There is a lot of useful work that is not considered "productive".
coreyjayb
I meant them in the same way
Calgaryrugbygirl1
One day minecraft players will realise they are designing the worlds mega cities. And they paid to do it. Bwhahahhahahah
Dorrito
Hell yes! This is my contribution /a/IBnkF
pixe1adrift
Also is this 100% faithful to the original maps? Or was a lot of creative license taken?
pixe1adrift
That was back in 2014~ Where can I check it out?
pixe1adrift
Sorry, I take it back. http://www.pokemc.com/
Dorrito
Yeah! You can check out our server with it on at http://www.pokemc.com/ or if you just wanna peek here's a vid: https://youtu.be/N8-FkulEso4
pixe1adrift
Now I'm just curious how you laid out the landscape. Building a town is one thing, but how did you get the whole stretch of land?
Dorrito
We built the terrain in mcedit/worldpainter, then worked from there.

I did vault 101 from Fallout 3. Almost an exact copy.

I do a thing we're once I've built something and I'm satisfied with it, I save the world into a hard drive and blow the original up with TNT

That was somehow exactly 140 characters first try

With some mistakes, but I've still done did it

I did the Vatican

I once made a dirt hut with a glass block winfow.

I once made a dirt palace that used some ~50,000 blocks of just dirt grass and water
hibsta
How'd you get glass? I just left a hole for a window
imadethisaccounttotellyouthis
I punched sand.
BatmanRidingANarwhal
Lol wtf Minecraft
Radicalest
To be fair you also have to smelt the sand into glass. You cant just pound sand into glass
DrKriegersClone
That's fancy. When I used to play, I'd just tunnel into the side of any convenient rock face like some kind of goddamn rodent.

I legit did my first house out of dirt. A huge complex of stairs, floors. Was fun until I got to know Creeper. Replaced it with Obsidian.

They even made full world of warcraft map full scale its was like 7 Gb size.

I remember that. They used a special conversion tool to do the majority of the conversion and then had a team go and touch up.

That would be such a cool idea for a server. The hard thing would be the boss mechanics and that kinda thing.

That’s... surprisingly small

If I'm not mistaken a group actually made most of westeros in Mincecraft.

I think this was version 2. They've done at least three

The Hogwarts one is amazing. https://youtu.be/ZoIXD0Tz6qE

Yes! they even made a whole post on imgur about it. WesterosCraft http://www.westeroscraft.com/home/
VizenFatale
That's cool but I would be more impressed if they made it in Minecraft. I don't even know what mincecraft is.
CanadianOneDollarCoin
A group made all of the places in Lord of the Rings. I went on the server last week. It’s very impressive
ihaveaprettylargeamountofnothing
how far in the east are they? last time i had a look minas thirith was just finished and the deathmarches were halfdone
CanadianOneDollarCoin
I haven’t explored the entire server so I can’t answer that. Sorry

oh alright, lets see if i can find the realtimemap somewhere >:^)
LurkingMcLurkface
Not sure if it's a typo or meant, but I'm keeping "Mincecraft" for future use.
Oberic
There is a very small chance of the game's main menu showing "Minceraft", really rare but intentional. But not Mincecraft. Just a fun fact.
Rodrak
Probably but the most recent thing on the FP was a group making it in Ark Survival

I'm sorry I can't seem to find it after googling it for a bit. Was also not on my favorites. Though there are a few servers doing GoT RP.

Look around a bit. Sorry I can't back up what I said earlier. I do remember seeing it though (if that's any conciliation)

The power to do whatever you want in a virtual space leads you to interesting places.
CycloneSP
mostly me just flying around spamming TNT and/or dropping lava everywhere :/ creative mode bores me cuz I can't art well
Zigor22
But it will remain virtual. Can't touch it, sell it, or anything. Minecraft made gaming a little less fun once it taught me this.
Incendor
Not always. With 3D printers we made a huge leap forward in this. There's (for example) already a software to convert your MC builds into /1
Incendor
3D printable files. Just scale it to wherever you want and print. Ta-daaa!
Zigor22
NUH. UH. SERIOUSLY?? what about interiors of space ships and stuff?
Incendor
Build it, export it, scale it, print it. Yeah it's voxels, but with the right resolution (build big to begin with) it won't get too blocky!
chardlz
virtual space be damned. The power to do what you want has led to nearly every major invention created period.

There's an excerpt in the back (at least in my copy) that explains he originally intended to make a graphic novel...which explains A LOT
