AkiraZXE Posted September 18, 2014 I think he means how long until Microsoft starts claiming revenue on Minecraft videos, which would include taking chunks out of current Minecraft-based Youtube channels like all the members of the Yogscast, a lot of the Mindcrackers, and so forth. 0 Share this post Link to post
Springy Posted September 18, 2014 You could reskin Minecraft so that the blocks have some kind of Star Wars theme, but then you just get Minecraft in space. Nothing particularly innovative. In all honesty, this has probably already been done as a texture set for Minecraft seeing as it has a wide collection of modifications built for it. The comparison with Lego is pretty spot on. The creative possibilities are pretty much endless in a way. It is basically computerised Lego, yes, Lego has different franchise themes etc. But many people have created content based on other franchises to further customise a player's experience and they are all for free. Edit: Just to back up my point, here's one I found. 0 Share this post Link to post

Yes, but you can't mod the console versions, and as much as we might to think that no one would buy those, we would be horribly, horribly wrong. 0 Share this post Link to post

Then they complain about it and the games they play and get paid bitchez. Just like Microsoft can get in on that Minecraft / Youtube money even if its 15%. I've started to unsubscribe a lot of people once they complain about Youtube, Twitch and Nintendo stream policies. When they start to complain, they're not there for the right reasons. 0 Share this post Link to post

Ah yes, that is a fair point, I did forget too take that into account however, I never realised that the sales of the console version surpassed that of the original. That has surprised me quite a lot. 0 Share this post Link to post

Two point five billion dollars is when you just walk away from what you are doing and stop caring about it, because you can do whatever you want now. Still a fucking sellout. 0 Share this post Link to post
