Welcome to another blog by darksix360! I hope you enjoy! :D


Recently, and by that I mean September 10th, news was released that Mojang may be bought by Microsoft. This at first worried me, as I felt that it would lose its touch, but what does this really mean for Mojang and the Players. As for Mojang, rumors have been recently going around that Notch was going to effectively resign, or leave Mojang. Mojang and Notch have decided against answering questions on the matter. For players, this worries them too. Because many big companies have bought other people’s games and turned it into just a big money flop and test sort of thing, this could cause Minecraft to lose its reputation, as well as its success, and creators and updates. Naturally players will be worried about this. Also this raises the question, why would Mojang sell in the first place, because Mojang approached Microsoft, not the other way around! Despite Mojang refusing funding from larger companies and offers to sell to other large companies as well, and making comments against Microsoft! I personally feel that they shouldn’t sell, but a deal could be struck by the end of the week reportedly. Now a question for you, what are your thoughts on this? Let me know what you think in the comments, and if you want the news article it can be found here http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-29142975 and thank you for taking your time to read this, if you thought it was good, please diamond, favorite, and subscribe for more! It’s nice to know people enjoy this stuff, and have a good rest of your day!  Bye! :D

Remember that Microsoft bought MOJANG. Not Minecraft, so all of the Mojang employees will sill work on Minecraft. Nothing should change appart from the normal updates.

I dont think he should because if he did microsoft would remove minecraft from sony and apple because microsoft hates them and it would only be available on x-box and windows.

No, Microsoft would want tons of money for the Minecraft versions (At least for their updates, the older versions already have their license).

This is the reason that the Mac and PE users are worried, because Microsoft (if they buy Mojang) might not release the updates for their biggest opposition.
