I bought the game back in 2010 I bought the game back in 2010, with a licence that was supposed to last in perpetuity, however, now the game isn't working anymore. I contacted customer service and turns out they have dropped the old licences, without letting original owners know that they made that change. I never received any communications from Mojang, Minecraft or Microsoft (which apparently now owns the game) about any such change. It is a really misguided way to treat customer's who had been with you from the beginning, shame on you! Cannot recommend this company.

The chat reporting system goes against… The chat reporting system goes against everything that Minecraft players have come to love about the game over the past 10 years. The whole purpose of Minecraft is to grant freedom to the player, yet Mojang's recent changes have taken that freedom away from us.

Having 2 different versions was a mistake. Not a bad game. Its more that there are two versions: Java & Bedrock. Unfortunately, this means the two will have differences. The 3 big one are: 1. The 2024 Aprils Fool's Update was JAVA EXCLUSIVE. The only way Bedrock got the update was through an add-on which was underwhelming compared to the Java trailer & gameplay. 2. Servers are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. Where on Java you can join ANY server with an IP address, on Bedrock there is NO SUCH THING. You can't join any server, only a select few. 3. Modding capabilities don't exist for Bedrock. Only add-ons, which are MASSIVELY underwhelming compared to Java's mods, which are free. You will occasionally have to PAY REAL MONEY for add-ons.

Migration to Microsoft is a disaster From brilliant indie game to a borderline criminal money grab scheme. Shame. My kids grew up with Minecraft but we're looking for alternatives. Funny thing is I'd gladly pay for as many cross platform licenses as my family requires and for whatever premium features we found useful. If not forced to do it... Instead we're going to stick to the single PE license. Not as an act of defiance or anything such but rather not to be screwed again.

Minecraft is alright game I have been playing Minecraft for more than a year. losing access to your Microsoft account is or if your account is suspended or something like that. You will lose access to Minecraft. I enjoyed the old days without worrying about losing your Microsoft account. You will be able to play Minecraft without a Microsoft account.
