Nice tutorial :) i play Minecraft now for quite a few years and i still love it since you can do whatever you want: try yourself in the survival mode, or create whatever you can imagine in creative mode. You can build some maps with gameplay for you and your friends or if you are brave enough, try some redstone mechanics.
I first discovered it a few years ago through some friends and played a cracked version. After years playing a cracked version i decided to buy it finally. In the beginning i was struggling to create sticks but it's very simple: put two planks vertical and you got sticks :D
