I don't see how Microsoft's development cycles could be any worse, or more stupid, so I'm cool with it.

They'll keep Jeb on until he's fully explained Notch's spergy language of clicks, whistles, and JavaScript. Let's remember Notch almost cancelled Oculus Rift support, because he didn't like Facebook. Now he's selling out to an OG corporate tech monolith.

we should celebrate this duo of Notch and Jeb because they are basically the very essence of goon. They represent both the balding obese goons and the pasty skinnies and now they're gonna be videogame billionaires  they are goonkings

The big question here is clearly whether Notch will be getting paid by cartoonical bags of money or direct transfer to Chris Robert's bank account.

Lucky. Congratulations, Notch! Also Minecraft could be turned into a gildmine with a big and competent team, but this is Micrisoft. lol Minecraft 2 will fail as spectacularly as the bone.
