    Yeah, but say bye bye to all our free updates, and say hello to pay to win features, from premade maps, new blocks, whatever. Microsoft will not keep mc the way it is, they will unfortunately do what they do best: milk us for money. I pray notch doesn’t sell!

    And its now a microsoft product, Notch & the other co-founders all quit Mojang, and will not be part of anything to do with the progress of minecraft, https://twitter.com/notch/status/511508557200498688.

    Watching the microsoft video, he acknowledges all the servers that made minecraft what it is today, so Im hoping we will get faster turn arounds & better support from now on out. *crosses fingers*

    Microsoft can’t screw up MC because of the terms of service that went along with the deal or something… But to be on the safe side, upload a mc skin that you are comfortable with because later on they might charge to change skins. Microsoft can’t screw up MC but if they decide to make a MC2 then we will stay true to the original… hopefully nothing dramatic happens.

    I think they will leave minecraft v1 alone mostly, and later on release a Paid DLC, Paid Skins, Paid maps “Better graphics” Minecraft V2, that will premier on Xbone and then bleed out to other devices much slower.

    Maybe being a proper company, having a proper PR team and proper legal team there will be much less mishaps and complete fuck ups, Mojang were terrible as a company.
