Minecraft player spends 14 years building a city skyline

Minecraft players never cease to amaze with their incredible patience and dedication when it comes to building brilliant structures. The title's sandbox nature allows gamers to create almost anything that their imagination can conjure. One can make large cities, mountain ranges, artwork, as well as complicated machines like calculators and computers inside Minecraft.

Recently, Redditor bmach added their name to the list of dedicated Minecraft builders after they posted some images of a city skyline. The accompanying caption states that they have been building it for 14 years and are yet to complete it. Note that the game recently had its 15th anniversary, meaning that the user started this build just a year after the title's launch.
