I haven't played in a long time and my friend and I were thinking about finding a server to play on. Would this server be good for people coming back to the game for the first time in 3-4 years?

Maze wrote I haven't played in a long time and my friend and I were thinking about finding a server to play on. Would this server be good for people coming back to the game for the first time in 3-4 years?

That's a good question. We have had a few players who were in a similar situation, where they have been away from Minecraft for years but were able to get back into the game with the server. However, it all comes down to preferences. The different features we have might not be what you're looking for, or you're looking for a server that can challenge you while still being entertaining in its gameplay. Best to try out the server, and ask the community about any questions you have about the different features the server has. It doesn't hurt to try it out!
