First one here to say I like Minecraft for the boring stuff?
Its not just about running around with a twig and killing cows.
It includes mining, exploration, discoveries and treasures. Building huts, to houses, to whole communities with the resources that are around-about. And still having the edge of scare that you get from being in the dark, mining really deep, or staying out at night to look at stars. Its not just walking around and hitting blocks to get stuff, its about putting your creative minds to the game and giving it what you feel should be created. I personally would take my mind off to play Minecraft for its beautiful landscapes and all the functions to the game, flowing water for example is a key source, letting you run items down a stream, or capping off an area and letting whatever gets in the water flow to lava or some sort, or just having waterfalls and beautiful creations.
Think about the good of the game, not the bad parts and the boring parts and the parts you encountered playing only five minutes walking around, and not more time exploring and mining and crafting, creating, and constructing.
