Minecraft allows players to express themselves however they want, making it one of the best sandbox games available. Robinson Is Back You can play any style you like and even make every thing your own with the many Minecraft mods. A lot of that is free as long as you've bought the game. Things get a little murkier when it comes to the Minecraft marketplace, where money exchanges hands.



The Minecraft marketplace has been around for a while, but because it's only on the Bedrock edition and console versions of the game, it's not something that a lot of Java players might be familiar with. It's different now that both versions are available in one location. There are still some problems with the Minecraft marketplace.



A Redditor called Boredbud04 uploaded a small video clip showing off some of the 'Back Items' from the marketplace. These cosmetics can be used to add flair to characters and take up space normally unused. These skins are a bit more expensive than many others, but they can also change the shape and appearance of your character, which is a bit more extravagant than most skins. While they are only wings, it's difficult to miss how large they can become when they block the market screen.



Inner Ghosts is the worst offender in all senses. Boredbud04 focuses second on this pink one. This bit of back bling, if you'll forgive the Fortnite terminology, would take up the entire screen if it was in the centre. This seems like a huge issue if you're going into multiplayer games because you could easily troll people by just standing in front of them. This can cost money, which isn’t necessarily a problem if someone has made it, but it can feel a little uncomfortable.
