Is there any benefit to having an old minecraft account from 2011...

Battle royales got boring, nothing else really interesting lately. Pewdiepie is a huge factor as well.

It was well positioned. It's a decade old game that's been receiving updates and mod support the entire time, so now there's a boom of people that played it back when Notch was still personally shilling it on Yea Forums that are reexperiencing it.

This.
Just email Mojang support and you'll get your account back in a couple of hours OP.
I had the same after a couple of year's break, I came back and some Malaysian girl had stolen my account.
Got it back in a couple of hours but because this person had literally JUST renamed my character like 2 days before I came back I had to wait a month to change my name/sex back.

Minecraft has always been in the following category of games
>"man it's been ages since I played Minecraft"
>reinstall it
>play the ever-loving shit out of it for 2 weeks
>"meh I'm over it, good game though"
>quit playing it for 1-2 years
>repeat
Just like Ragnarok Online, just like Dwarf Fortress.

this is a /comfy/ one. can't join right now, but i heartily encourage others to

>nothing else really interesting lately
honestly this too.
nothing good recently so people always go back to tried and true classic games.

I'll definitely give emailing a try. I still have the original email I used to purchase the account.

DUDE SAME, bought this game back in May 2012, some Malaysian POS accessed my account (still trying to hack all of other accounts too) and redeemed my Windows 10 game copy.

Wrote an email to Mojang explaining what happened, took em like a month to reply but they got me a new code and resolved everything.

Texture pack name?

dokucraft light
i recommend using optifine too, it enables connected textures which are fucking excellent
