    Well, RIP Minecraft. Probably worth getting backups of your favorite versions.

        I wonder if he still would’ve still been a fascist, sexist, homophobic Nazi piece of shit if he wouldn’t have sold.

          Do you think he became those things after he sold it? Like some magic trick where the very second it happened he became a bad person. No, he was surely those things before, just hadn’t shown it publicity.

            I do recall that he talked about feeling incredibly alienated after the sale, because people only wanted to talk to him, for his money. He couldn’t make genuine connections. That kind of thing really fucks with you, and it wouldn’t surprise me if it exacerbated existing problems.

            But also, like… Look at the Villagers. They deal in commerce, have but noses, and are protected by golems. He was always a shithead. Being a rich shithead only made him worse

      Its the most purchased game in the world, do you think there is after the full release that isnt backed up a couple hundred times?

      But if you want, i would recommend 1.7.9, 1.12.2, 1.16.5, and 1.19.4 since those are the most modded versions of minecraft as far as i know (1.7 and 1.12 being mostly tech modpacks)

        1.21.1, and 26.2 if you want further content. Java, BTW. No sane person uses Bedrock.

          I completely forgot about 1.21.1

          Regarding 26.2, i would just wait for the last not bad version since if they do make java edition bad (which i doubt would happen), they wouldnt do everything suddendly

        Tbh not sure i agree. Started a lore-playing server with friends in 2012. It grew to over 200 unique players and rich DnD style growing history. Minecraft entered its dark period after the purchase but in the last few years has given players plenty of steady updates that are bringing us back and keeping our lore playing server thriving.

        Ive seen more innovations in Minecraft in 5 years than I’ve seen in pokemon in 20, to put it into perspective. Love both series.
