They talked a lot about Minecraft but I'm not sure either of them played it.

> You look at Minecraft and yes there are multiplayer Minecraft servers, but the majority of gameplay people experience as single-player

This doesn't ring true to me at all. The vast majority of people playing MC regularly are playing on MP servers, and on those servers a lot of the gameplay is directly with other players – tournaments of all sorts (PvP, building, games like "Spleef"), fully-formed market economies with payments/shops/etc, small-scale building with friends, exploring the world together / team PvE, and of course huge collaborative building efforts that can have 100s of people working towards a unified goal.
