Minecraft =/= CAD (Gaming)

I actually used to be a navigator in rally racing, so to answer your question, I play video games because you can't be doing cool shit all the time. Plus, video games can take you to worlds where you can't go in real life, which is why Destiny is better than paintball.

If that's really your argument, then you just unraveled your own premise: there are plenty of things you can do in Minecraft that you cannot do in CAD. Likewise, there are tons of things you can do with LEGOs that you can't in clay or on a CNC mill. It works both ways.

In CATIA or NX, I may be able to loft a beautiful 3D model of a new aircraft in a few hours, with perfect curves and gorgeous lines; but can I make a giant circuit out of lava-blocks that plays music with binary switches? NOPE.
