Wait is it true that MS wants Mojang to doubledown on Mobile versions? (Stated from the video, Microsoft doesn't want Minecraft on Andriod stores or something like that, I watched many videos about it from many different people who are close with Microsoft)

I really really hope they are not going to release DLC packs in the future that require micro-payments.

But for now its only speculation, i guess its best to just wait and see what will happen :)
Yeah..

I wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft had decided to make Minecraft a Subscriber only to play online, wouldn't be surprised to see them add Windows 8 and later on Windows 9 Mechanics. I wouldn't be surprised to see both android and Sony lose support for any more updates and I would not be surprised to see DLC with micro-transactions either. At the moment though all we can do is wait and watch to see what Microsoft is going to do with what they bought and that is what I'm doing.

Edit: So I read the post on Mojangs website about how microsoft had bought them this is what I saw in the article.

"There’s no reason for the development, sales, and support of the PC/Mac, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, PS4, Vita, iOS, and Android versions of Minecraft to stop. Of course, Microsoft can’t make decisions for other companies or predict the choices that they might make in the future."

I, for one, would be very surprised if any of that happened, as it would not be in their best interest to do any of those.

You would be surprised to see Minecraft with Windows 8/9 Mechanics?  :P

Yeah I understand, not a lot of people would like it, heck I would be upset if Minecraft became Subscriber only.

I would be upset if Microsoft charged you to change your skin and charged you for a Texture/Resource pack.

My friend tagged Microsoft in one of his posts and this is what the post said: "Will pay @Microsoft &/or @MicrosoftSupport 2$ for Optifine for 1.8"

Honestly, I had to break into his twitter account to delete that post then later I tagged him and said "Shhh Microsoft cant learn dat dude." >_>

If Microsoft made us pay for DLC Areas, gamemodes, or whatever, I would honestly be really mad about it.

Like, if you bought the game Minecraft, you should be able to access everything, no off limits biomes, no unusable items. Everything should be unlocked.

Restricting features with "DLC" is honestly stupid. Yes, it does generate more money for the people making the game, but I really dislike it.

Plus it would be extremely unfair if they changed something that we already payed for.

Change is a part of video games. But still, what if we had to pay another fee to unlock the new update of Minecraft, so you were stuck in 1.8?

I'd hate to see that happen.

It wont Mickey. Even though Im sorta against MC buying Microsoft, they wouldn't waste 2.5million just to ruin it. Like someone said, my only insurance MC wont destroy it is the 2.5million$ part.
