It's time to weep at the death of Minecraft, boys.

Notch and the rest of the team are also leaving apparently.

So yeah. RIP Minecraft

Notch hasn't actually worked on Minecraft in a long time. And as long as Microsoft leaves the development of MC up to the Mojang team, it should be fine. Worst come to worst, a lot of people in the community are going to take it upon themselves to keep the spirit of MC alive. Even if Minecraft gets abandoned for whatever reason, people in the community will just keep it running.

I hate how people say "rip x" when a company takes over a different one. It's the biggest nonsense, minecraft will stay the same. That's like saying RIPTTT because Kittai became new owner instead of Jose or whatever. Minecraft is not gonna die.

People yell the same everytime, and it's the biggest BS, you know it. So please stop bitching.

All I'm saying is... The Minecraft team with all their recent lovely updates will most likely come to an end. The consistency (both quality and quantity of updates and patches) will most likely decrease.

"RIP MINECRAFT"
OH NO MICROSOFT JUST BOUGHT IT AN HOUR AGO AND HAVEN'T EVEN TOUCHED IT YET.. REST IN PEACE

Yea, it's dumb to make assumptions when someone just bought it. How do you know they're turning it into shit? Half the shit we use on computer is from Microsoft either way... lol.

Mojang has done so much. So so much and I really don't think Microsoft will be able to do anything else since Mojang have done so well with Minecraft there isn't much left to do.

Also, it was meant to be tongue-in-cheek. Not to be taken seriously.

Minecraft was nice around 1.1 .too many fanboys. No problem with that but its such a 8yrols hype
