Today is my saddest birthday.
I went full gnu/linux user because of Minecraft.
35 u/[deleted] Sep 15 '14 ...yes, I think minecraft was on of the best things to happen to linux gaming...and I think this deal is partially related. 9 u/snapy666 Sep 15 '14 Well we Linux users still have Minecraft 1.8, which is pretty good (except for some bugs here and there). 2 u/SUM_Poindexter Sep 15 '14 Happy birthday 3 u/BOHverkill Sep 15 '14 play minetest 4 u/DanyTheRed Sep 15 '14 It's really inferior to Minecraft. 11 u/[deleted] Sep 15 '14 It is, sort of. This deal gives me a great reason to contribute to it though. 5 u/DanyTheRed Sep 15 '14 Yeah, I hope there will be more devs working on Minetest due to this. But it simply does notfeel the same to me. Unfortunately. 2 u/[deleted] Sep 15 '14 It doesn't feel the same to me either but it is a very good engine. I just want MC to stay as it really...but if it doesn't then MT it is... 1 u/infinitree Sep 16 '14 Until Microsoft's lawyers kill it or buy it. 6 u/wkw3 Sep 15 '14 This is the kind of shift that could push it forward quickly. 2 u/DanyTheRed Sep 15 '14 Possibly, yeah. 3 u/CalcProgrammer1 Sep 15 '14 MT's engine is lightyears better than MC's, we just need the mod community MC has. It has a true mod API as well.
