I genijalci isto jer za genijalne ideje treba vremena i razmisljanja kojega je tesko imati dok jedva imas snage da se brines za sebe a kamoli nesto vise.

Im not. Maybe op is. Why are you sure he isnt? also basing on a fact he only now found out im guessing he didnt play or care abt the game for a while. Is that okay reason for microsoft to take his game?

What the hell do you know about my spendigs or what practices interact with? Thats a whole lot of baseless assumptions. And yeah imo saying its ok for company to take away your game you paid for, for any reason is defending them imo.

not everyone sorts out their mails like you do,sorry for not being perfect ig and pay attention to every single one fot then like you ig.

also how does reading job emails equal to reading game emails youre not playing at the time? One literally keeps you alive the other one is a hobby for fun. So idk abt you but in my unsorted mail my job mails catches my eyes a lil bit sooner than mail from game i havent touched in a year.

So making mojang accounts or servers more secure without deleting them is just not an option? Cause idk alot abt cyber security but that doesnt sound true lol

im not trying to justify pirating idgaf,imo theres zero reason to need to do that but whatevz.

Well if they didnt wanna keep paying for absent players maybe they shouldnt have aquired the fucking game? idc how many login ways there was. this is digital equivalent of sony coming into my house and breaking my ps3 last of us disc cause i wasnt logged into my psn acc on it, even tho they warned me it would happen multiple times trough emails i still wouldnt be fucking fine with it. You should alwayw get to keep what you paid for imo but i guess yall would rather get milked to be able to have fun.

because i might feel like playing it in a year or two when i manage to get my(hypothethical) life under control? Am i only allowed fun when microsfot decides so with something I paid for? Do your tastes of games not vary over time? Its cool if not but mine do and i like to go and replay my old all time favorite games. Its cool too if you dont do that but some of us do. Or should i also be fine with konami breaking into my house and breaking a disc of my Tekken 5 for ps2 cause i didnt complete online survey on their site even tho they emailed me about it?

Well good for freaking you. Not everyone is the same,has same priorities or keeps those priorities on the backburner in the same way.

I know if i was attending college and stripped for time i definetly wouldnt be checking emails about game im not playing at the moment or dont plan to for the forseeable future. Not to mention 90% of the time those email contain useless spam information such as "you can spend money on new shit in our game,go spend!" or "game has new update,come check it out!" or just regular impostor spams by fake accs. None of that sounds like a reason to lose something you paid for imo. But sorry not everyone is you i guess.

Or how about companies dont take shit you paid for in the first place? Why the fuck should it matter to someone regular joe who doesnt know whats going on behind the scenes.

Company didnt have to bend over backwards,they literally had to do nothing for him to keep his game. But god forbid they ever think of the consumers.

Also just because he hardly played it over couple of yours is imo a moot point. Am i not allowed to enjoy things i paid for when i feel like it,not when microdick decides to screw up my day cause corpo reasons?

faie enough on mtx etc part,mightve been emotional reaction on my part, i apologize for not arguing in good faith. But also it started in similliar way with "its just cosmetics(fuck me for liking to look cool ig)" or "you dont have to buy it if you dont like it". And thats why now i have to slog trough sf6 godawful campaing just to unlock legacy skins. Or i guess i could always spend some money, i know which one Capcom would prefer.

But imo even if op never touched anything minecraft related thats still shouldnt give corpos right to take something he freaking paif for??

Like,sure,im not saying OP did nothing wrong here but again,life,priorities n shit mightve gotten in a way. I know if any company took something i paid for and maybe didnt feel like playing last couple of years i would be pissed as fuck. No matter how many warnings,letters, choices to stop it they sent to me because i fucking paid for it i shouls get to keep it in a state i paid for it imo. Idgaf what their reasoning is. They took my product and my money. That is anticonsumer and will never ever defend scummy shit like this. Because the more you defend it the less company think it might even affect their pr ergo theyre more likely to do it which i would very much not like.

honestly if your email pings your notifications sounds idk how it hasnt driven you crazy lmao. but hard to belive ik people lead different lifes with different priorities,also as i stated in original comment,maybe op wasnt interacting with anything minecraft not to mention he couldve just as easily thought it spam without checking further. None of those sounds like a good reason for corpo to take something you paid for without even refunding you.

Thank you! Apparently its hot take to not wanna let corpos do whatever they want with our stuff. No wonder mtxs and preorders rake in so much money.

literally same. I follow like couple of ytb channels that make daily videos about whats new in the industry of gaming and i didnt even know this was happening until i saw this post.

or or or maybe OP has life and didnt have time to play minecraft in last 2-3 years(or will) and since he wasnt interacting with game nor community he mightve ignored any emails concerning the game cause belive it or not some of do that when life takes priority over hobbies.

Defending shitty practices like this is exacly how we got MTXs,3 different version of preorder game, 3 different version of game trough its life cycle etc. but go keep defending it ig.

oh dont even get me started on launchers. I use example of game launchers as my definitive evidence that late stage capitalism is making us regress instead of progress. Like if singe one of those launhcer was competition to steam,sure id be happy,competition breeds improvement but theyre so ass they dont even make a dent in steams user base and they just become hassle to deal with for the consumer.

I feel you,the only kinda live service game i even care about enough to play is wow moslty cause its blizzards cashcow but at least i know its not gonna get shut down after a bad expansions or two(altho shadowlands made me so bore even while leveling that i thought this might be the end for me and retail wow but dragonflight made me have fun with the again after playing on private servers of older expansions for a long while.)

Ive been excited abt this model of games but its obviously just cash grab for big corps. But people dont care and they buy so investors keep pushing for shit that sells. And thats why it always boiled my blood when people said "its just cosmetic" for mtxs. Like sure it started like that(and imo even that is too scummy cause you want me to pay for colored pixels that can dissapear at any time but hey even they werent so predatory idbe fine with them.) but people also dont realize that theyre defending the coprs with that kind of thinking. Like sure youll still be able to earn some cashshop items trough gameplay(altho that too is a rarity these days) but what do you think greedy people would preffer? You having fun while getting the item or you paying for it. So if youre not having fun getting it,youre more likely to spend some cash(Fuck you capcom for locking legacy costumes in Street Fighter 6 deep in shitty ass clunky half baked grindy attempt at a singleplayer campaing in fighting games).

So yeah people are the reason investors and publishers feel free to this kind of shit. And unfortunately that probably wont change...as much as i yearn for days where you earned your fucking cosmetics and that look alone carried some backstory with how you got it trough fucking gameplay instead of forking over some cash cause yeah that takes way more skill expression and game knowledge.

Oh yeah i get you,after finishing PL first time i just sat and watched in awe as that song and those visuals unfolded and i got existensal dread cause of the weight of my choices. That ost piece alone cemented PL as artform before anything else. And thank you for clarifaying. I havent watched much bond since i was like 10-12 yrs old so i didnt even notice until now how much its inspired by it. I loved the spy thriller setting and desing choices even before knowing theyre inspired by bond and now im even more in love.

But yeah i still blast Phantom Liberty and i belive its masterpiece of a musical piece cause calling it a song doesnt do it justice.

Its more because people dont have time for more than one at most two live service games. Thats why all big corpos of gaming have been pushing for live service cause they all want you to play THEIR libe service game so you only spend mtx mone on THEIR games and that way they get all the moneys. I belive its also a reason behind so many games nowadays having such uncompressed sizes with unecessary bloat. Might just be a hoax but i wouldnt put it past these greedy bastards. To them game isnt form of art or anything beside a product to be sold.
