While Microsoft is a rival of Apple and Sony, I doubt they're going to entirely remove the availability on those platforms. At most, maybe increase the price a bit or reduce focus and updates.

Let's take an example: Microsoft Word, Powerpoint, Excel, etc. - the whole MS Business category.
They're available on Macs, but don't you have to buy them?

Mojang (possibly turning into Microjang LOL) makes a large amount of money off of the sales on Sony and Apple platforms.
And also, people who already bought the game on Sony platforms.. if they had the game removed or never updated again, Microsoft would lose a LOT of reputation and credibility, plus it'd receive a flood of complaints.

However, I still do hope that Mojang doesn't go through with this deal.
While they might gain extra developers and available resources, they would lose their individuality and room for creativity.

Ever heard of "Common Core" within the USA?
It's basically a big system for schooling. Every class has to go ___this way, and you have to teach it in ____this manner. It really restricts the teachers' freedom, and teachers hate it.
Oh yes i completely forgot the Business section of Microsoft. They wouldn't remove it they would just probably just add up a the price a few $.

All my teachers at school love common core, and teach everyone the same way. It seriously kills. And what sucks, is that I would've been in a private school atm, that had really good teachers, but I apparently need to "get an experience from it" or whatever the f*** my mom meant by that. It's a really bad thing, "common core". It's just making kids dumber.

What is conman core. Is it only a US program. Cause if it is i don't know anything
Also regarding your second post that probably will be true like the HP games. You have 5 try's to play this game you can get more tokens by buying.

I can see… ''dumber'' is not a word.

Dumber. Well, if it wasn't a word, then I guess there would be red lines under it. And there aren't. (You can't see red lines, but I can)
Well I guess you can tell that to Google, Webster and Encyclopedia Britannica. But I know Im right anyway.

Well then we are looking at 2 different dictionaries, because mine says it's not a word.

I'm sorry, but literally everywhere I've looked says it's a word.

But how about we end this discussion so we don't derail this thread further.
