Here we go with the "fame and fortune gets annoying after a while" deal. Remember Flappy Bird? Yes you do. He doesn't need to make any more money, and I'll bet the attention gets annoying as hell after a while. I would most definitely want Microsoft to buy me out for tons of money and then be left alone from all the attention it gets you.

*Applauds with vigor*

But honestly, my mind went straight to flappy bird as well when I heard he quit.  

To be honest, I believe a more game-focused company, for example Nintendo, should have bought it. Of course, $2 Billion would only come out of companies like Microsoft, but they will most likely make Minecraft 'for the family' and whatnot like they did with the Xbox.

Some people dont want fame some people hate the thought of having it and rather be in the back of the room where no one sees him.

Some people cant handle the feeling of people trash talking them 24/7. I respect notch for doing this. He wanted out and he got out with a bang of 2billion dollars.

He is already set for life. Microsoft can't hurt the game. The game will end up just dying out soon who knows. only time will tell.

^thats me.

Nintendo is too poor right now.

Multiplayer where you don't have to be on the same wifi would be a good update along with making servers like the app they made for it.

No it's true. I read it on The Onion.  

Introducing... Microsoft Minecraft!

Included in Microsoft Office, this revolutionary new software will allow you to create shapes like never before. The new UI allows for different shapes to be created "crafted" in a format similar to Microsoft Excel.

Work on minecraft with friends! Loading a server is done like never before - you'll be able to crank out those spreadsheets in no time!  

We all know the last time Microsoft payed a huge sum of money to a company (aka rare) and the ruined the company with craply kinect games and letting all of the original devs leaving

Pretty sure he has to give like 50% of it to the Swedish government, but he still has enough to live comfortably for life.

And as for Minecraft...I see Windows Phone/Windows 8/Xbox exclusive crap, an HD Remake in 5 years and Minecraft 2 in 10.

The end.
