My 11 year old son is an avid Mincraft player. His favorite aspect is playing team games on multiplayer servers.
When I told him that Microsoft bought Mincraft, he was quite upset, and was confident that Microsoft would ruin it.
Change was bound to happen. Hearing their plans to go c++ makes me wonder how it will impact the server ecosystem. Also, the "Windows 10" messaging in the article does sound like a case of a big company trying to bend a community to its own will (get people on Windows). In my son's case, if things go south, he is going to end up hating Microsoft for ruining his favorite game.
