Now, although many people would disagree with me, I think that Notch selling Minecraft to Microsoft was a huge mistake. See, Minecraft started off as a quaint game. Now, I'm not saying that I'm a Minecraft hipster and I got it before it was cool - I didn't (I think it was around 1.5). But, I know that it eventually started to become too much and went downhill. I think it plummeted at 1.6. Like, I know that it was improved by adding stuff, but, it was fine before! Let's be honest... Who needed carpets? Who was the one that asked Notch for carpets? I mean, horses, yeah, why not, but carpets? No. I mean, I know that their were a few bugs in the game and a few things that made you rage, but, that was the beauty of the game. Also, they could have gone about updating the game by fixing it, not adding to it. And, I mean, after 1.6, maybe 1.7, they are just adding random stuff. Biomes, sure, I mean, why not, but they've gone about it the wrong way... Microsoft are going to continue adding things we don't need. I know it. You know. Notch knows it. Microsoft knows it. It's destined to happen. But, yeah. What are your views on it?
Thanks! :))

I agree with you all the way until the very end. Nothing will replace minecraft it's beauty is it's reletive simplicity for the skill floor. You can go in and have a thrilling and successful game, never touching more than a tenth of it. Or youneed mods out the ass so you're barely even playing the same engine as a vanilla player.
