What exactly is the point of this thread? you don't think Minecraft is as good as Natural Selection 2? Well, too bad, there are plenty of games I liked that weren't as popular as games I didn't like, that doesn't make their creators degenerates, it just means my tastes sometimes differ from the masses, Natural Selection 2 is a fun game, but I enjoyed Minecraft more, and for a longer period of time, and by the looks of sales numbers, so did a lot of other people.
as for anything else, maybe its because I live in Nevada, where people vacation a lot, and prostitution is legal in some areas, but I don't see why I should give a shit what Notch does with the money Microsoft gave him. The Firefall guy spent company money that could have gone towards making the company's game, Notch completed his game, and it is kind of fucked up to expect him to be required to keep making games for the rest of his life if he doesn't want to. he made his product and sold it very successfully, and even had the decency to give really fat bonuses to all his employees, which rarely happens in these types of buyouts, and pretty much never to the tune of 3 million dollars. Microsoft basically just paid him for the rights to a finished product which he can choose to use that money however he wants, if he wants to retire and spend the rest of his life investing in other projects or traveling the world, that's his right, and I honestly see nothing in your OP that would qualify him as a degenerate, or really even in the wrong in any way, he's not a great public speaker, and really that's the worst I can say about him given what was linked in the original post.
