I just want to play Minecraft with my kids!

RobertCobb6 · May 1, 2021

I am about ready to return this xbox. I bought it so that I could play Minecraft with my kids. When they enter they have to choose a profile, we tried add guest which is no fun because they do not have individual names. We went the extremely complex method of setting up family account with each child having a child account. I can get one or two in but then it says a child is attached to a controller (which I did not want) or I log in under account their account and it kicks me out and says to go to account.live.com, which I do but have no indication what to do next.

I am about to lose my mind of trying to get all 3 kids in with me for over two hours. Ugh! Any easy way to just play with my kids before I return this thing?

My son is 7 and looking for some kids around his age to play minecraft with. He doesn't have a headset. So if your kids want to play mutiplayer it is .

I agree. Xbox one doesn't seem fitting for my youngsters who just want to play games that are age appropriate. Regret buying the one as it has games geared older kids and adults and online multiplayer games. Just want minecraft, kinectimals and games they
can play each other. : (
