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.

Extremely poor customer service Extremely poor customer service. The website password reset doesn't seem to be working, and after some correspondence with a rep (bot?) who only provided canned, unhelpful responses, they closed my ticket without resolving my issue, at which point I could no longer correspond with the rep. So I had to start over with a new ticket and I guess we will see if the new rep is any more helpful.

Literal theft on Microsofts end It is utterly atrocious to revoke older player licenses without notification, making me now spend 1.5 times what I originally spent on the game again AND register my address on a Microsoft account (I should not need to give up my private information to be able to play a game I already bought... twice) just to play this game. The licenses back then were supposed to give you ownership of the game, revoking them is completely unjust so remember, if buying something doesn't guarantee ownership then... well, you know how the saying goes.

its okay It is okay but there are some things like useless updates like sniffers which has only 1 use (which is to get 1 seeds for a torch flower) and the fact that it is very boring especially with no challenge ( which is why i usually use mods in survival worlds). It would be nice to not only add more mobs (with ore use), blocks and blocks Ect. but also look after the younger players since sometimes players can be exposed to inappropriate content such as swear words, sexual references, and violence when interacting with other players from around the world in multiplayer mode which is honestly disgusting. even if those problems still remain , i still like this game ever since 2011

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.
