Mojang :
Yes, the deal is real. Mojang is being bought by Microsoft.
It was reassuring to see how many of your opinions mirrored those of the Mojangstas when we heard the news. Change is scary, and this is a big change for all of us. It’s going to be good though. Everything is going to be OK. <3
The Minecraft community are calling for a Mob Vote boycott, labelling it "lazy" and even creating anti-Mojang propaganda to rally players.
“One user explained the community’s sentiment perfectly, sharing how “the fact that they’re a year off and add like, two mobs, a few blocks, and some bug fixes is absurd. I’ve seen modders do that s**t in WEEKS. and then… they open a mob vote as if they can’t just add all three.”
They can’t even get a current gen version out the door 3 years in. Mojang is a joke anymore.
I'm really happy people are actually banding together on this and giving the middle finger to Mojang finally, it's nice to see fans stop being blind and ask for more.
Minecraft is the game that could have went above and beyond after Microsoft bought them years back but they just haven't done anything. It feels like they've gotten lazier than what they were before being bought..
Updates take months to come out and when they do they are barebones compared to what they could have been and they want to rub salt in the wound still by making people choose between things to add.
They kept relying on mods, like if someone says "I feel Minecraft should have X, Y and Z" it will be "Well there's a mod for that, go and download it instead"
The game doesn't even have basic home decorations like chairs, tables, counters, sinks, more light sources, wallpaper, showers, toilers, cupboards, TVs, alternatives for the Jukebox, double beds without putting two singles together and so on.
What happens when you ask for something as simple as chairs? Die hard fanboys...
"The game is supposed to be about creativity, so use a Stair block as a chair and if you want a table put a fence pole down and put a pressure plate on top"
Honestly...it's crazy, that make shift shit is good at the START of the game when you have nothing but later on you want to start aiming for better things to make and create.
They are owned by MS who don’t know what the difference between good and bad moves , good to bad games even. The one area MS is good at is monetizing games.
WindowsCentral writes: "The social team at Mojang has started posting pixel art for imaginary Minecraft games lately. Their fun takes on alternative-universe games where Minecraft existed as a pixel-style side-scroller on the NES or a top-down RPG on the Game Boy. Kudos to the artists, because increasingly I find myself actually wanting these games."

I'm surprised most people on the Minecraft subreddit seem to be cautiously optimistic about this. I'm not, but the backlash doesn't seem to be as great as it could have been. That's the best response you can hope for in a situation like this, I think.
Read it but still a little confused.
Lets say in a year there is a huge update to Minecraft, would the PS4 version still get it or will it be forgotten and left in the past?
Are they greatest one hit wonders ever?
I feel sorry that ps4 players can't play MineCraft 2.
I have a pc so I might have the option but also I hate the game lol
Another day at m$ office nothing new here
Well we know it's gone from anything MS name not on!!! But it's also called business can't blame MS for buying them, if you do let's blame Sony for Not buying them!!!!
To say no one cares is a lie!!!! They a lot of gamers playing it on something that has to do with Sony...
