Or the fact that games like Skyward Sword and Dead Space 3 now have crafting in them. I'm not saying SS and DS3 are taking elements of Minecraft into their games, but it's pretty convenient to have players doing that in their games at a time when Minecraft is so big. It does have it's negative impact.

I'd call that more of a coincidence. Crafting elements in video games DO predate Minecraft. Hell, even the concept of inserting a -craft suffix into the name predates Minecraft. Come to think of it, Zelda: A Link to the Past ALMOST has a moment of weapon crafting in it. Sure, its more of a side quest to get a character from point A to point B, but doing so gives you the opportunity to upgrade your sword. While not EXACTLY the same, in a world of swordplay and magic it seems easier for elements of crafting to be feasible. But I don't really know for sure, maybe Miyamoto just plays Minecraft all day.
I know, that's why I said, I noticed it in SS and DS3 but not that I knew what the developers were thinking. But with ALttP it's never a core part of the game with rewards and bonuses, that's outside of the story. For DS3 and SS it's a part of the game that isn't related to the story. Both have crafting which we never had before in those two series. But like I said before, I'm not saying they were put into the game because of Minecraft, but I think there is some level of influence there.

It does have it's negative impact though. It's actually on the level of pathetic with the amount of crafting type indie games that we've gotten, or the fact that the most popular indie game on XBLA Indie is Fortress Craft. It's taken away creativity for mediocrity on an Indie space. Games that have all gained a decent level of exposure have been swept under because of Fortress Crafts high popularity.

And I do like Minecraft. Played it since launch and I don't think it's overrated.
