About
Loading Terrain is an image macro series featuring a screenshot of the loading screen from the 2009 video game Minecraft used to express feelings of disorientation, confusion or a struggle to comprehend.
Origin
On May 17th, 2009, the video game Minecraft launched. As the game loads a player's information, a screen that reads "loading terrain" appears on the screen (video below).
One of the earliest variations of the screen in a meme was published in 2013 by MemeCenter[1] user thexvillain11 (shown below).
Spread
In 2019, memers began using the image featuring the text "loading terrain" as a reaction image. For example, on July 17th, 2019, an anonymous Redditor [2] posted it as the reaction to what "[blind] people actually see" (shown below, left).
About two weeks later, on August 5th, Redditor[3] ibeatmyfeet69 shared a variation with the caption "what non religious people see when they die." The post received more than 17,000 points ()96% upvoted) and 150 comments in less than one year (shown below, center).
The trend continued into the next year. On April 8th, 2020, Redditor[4] karpikson posted the image with the caption "me: *rubs my eyes aggressively* my brain." The post received more than 23,000 points (98% upvoted) in less than 24 hours (shown below, right).
