Minecraft Bankruptcy

Definition

When your Minecraft installation becomes so corrupted with conflicting mods that the only solution is to delete everything and start fresh — a digital apocalypse followed by rebirth. Perfect metaphor for when your life is too broken to fix, so you just restart.

Example Usage

I had 47 mods installed and the game won't load anymore. I'm declaring Minecraft bankruptcy and starting over.

cinematic

A fancy term for that non-interactive video where the game temporarily strips you of control to show you something the developers think is too important for you to possibly mess up.
