Microsoft Buys Minecraft

Not about the money?

Pfft.

When 2.5 billion is dropped on the table for a indie game its all about the money.

Craftbukkit is dead as in all the developers left and removed all downloads with a DMCA because they found out Notch secretly bought the website and paid 4 of the authors.

RIP Minecraft. Long Live Microcroft!

Minecraft is pretty great if you want to just build a bunch of cool shit. I mean, that's really the only reason why I ever played Minecraft. But now that Microsoft bought Minecraft, it's going to be filled with a bunch of useless crap that does nothing but pisses off players and I'm totally excited for it!

I would be pissed if I contributed to a open source project, only to find out that my code was owned and distributed by a multi-million dollar company, who might very well be profiting from said code. I don't blame them for leaving, nor do I blame Wolvereness' DMCA claim.

ps. Sorry for necro posting.
