Late‑stage gaming really is paying extra just to suffer in a block game bought years ago.

Indeed, the game itself isn’t profitable anymore for MS. The last updates have been meh for the same reason Pokemon games are meh : they only exist to keep the IP alive and sell merch, which is where MS gets actual revenue from Minecraft.

If they try and crack down on java edition I’m probably just going to give up and try vintage story or something like that

t’s not even the feature itself, it’s the pattern. People have seen this movie before and the ending is always expensive and annoying.

They can enshitify Bedrock edition as much as they want, I don’t care. But if they ever touch Java, we are going to have a problem!

Was inevitable. They’ve already found so many stupid ways to monetize it. As long as I can still play old versions and snapshots single player idgaf tho
Could see them killing free servers tho which would suck

Why do rich people actually just keep passing the same people around in circles even though they are notoriously horrible at what they do? One could say “they are greedy” or whatever but if that was the reason why hire the person who fucked up the reputation of their whole company exactly with the job they execute??? “Oh you were on the boat when it sank? You’re hired” ???

Eh, Vintage Story has always been the better alternative

Minecraft fells off hard fucking years ago, mate.
Mojang has one of the greatest foundations of a game to date and they do jack shit with it.
*”Time to release an update that has like 10 blocks and like 2 new mobs! What’s that, Terraria releases like 300 blocks, 57 new weapons, 15 bosses and 4 whole new biomes in their updates?”*
Only natural for Mojang to hit rock bottom eventually.
