gotta hand it to whatever lobotomite runs the dexerto account, they really put a positive twist on "these idiots racked up an insane ai bill from people playing their free demo"
Meanwhile, the first builds of Minecraft were so popular that Notch got their paypal locked for suspicious activity with so much money coming in...
Not really the same signs of success ahah
the very first builds were free, I'm assuming that was for when he actually started selling the game (unless he was taking pre-orders/donations, I actually don't know about those), and Minecraft was way cheaper when it first started being sold than it is now! That really is a different sign of success lol
Alpha 5€, beta 10€, release 20€, then $20
As in, Mojang put the $ slightly higher originally, then microsoft raised the € price to 25 to "fix a price disparity"
I don't get why you were donvoted, this is exactly the truth, they even made the worse bedrock edition even more expensive on consoles at 30€ despite Minecraft being one of the most sold games of all time and then even added fuckass microtransactions to it, greed is the one thing Microslop is good at.
