I’ve just watched the video. I find it pretty outrageous. The word about it should spread.
If buying isnr owning piracy isn’t stealing
Minecraft being the best sold game while also extremely easy to pirate, lacking any real form of DRM apart from the official launcher simply not launching it into a non-“demo mode” session if you don’t have a login is a testament to how piracy isn’t always a danger.
Sure, Minecraft is really enhanced with multiplayer which is harder to do on a pirated copy, but there’s nothing really unethical about that.
How would one go about getting pocket edition? :3
Good question. Tried an APK? I assume they have DRM, now thinking. Java doesn’t.
Haven’t tried one, might just get minetest tho :3
Idk
Apparently I don’t own minecraft anymore.
We never did ☹️
Copies from before the Microsoft Launcher should still be yours just fine I assume.
I started playing Minecraft with Alpha 1.1 so I might actually have some archived antique versions somewhere. It has been years since you could just DL the game and play it though, so even the latest of those would be terribly out of date and missing many features. Better off at this point moving to Minetest-Mineclone 2 and avoid all the hassle.
Did they change how launching the game worked?
Play Minetest.
Is there a Minetest community?
Yeah, I meant Lemmy. I kind of wish we had a more specific name for it than “community”. (Instances are the servers, so like @lemmy.world)
maybe “sublemmies” ? hah (idk)
Yeah… I already play minetest too. :)
