notch should be reminded every day that he bought a wall of candy store-style candy dispensers and everything inside rotted because no one ever visits him
Making Minecraft is the man's one redeemable feature, and after he sold it there was literally 0 reason to be around the glorified 4chan basement dweller
Kinda :cope: considering the game still feels pretty similar to how it did back then.
I mean the entire look and feel of the game has exited for quite a long time. Here's a screenshot I just took from an Infdev release from June 2010: https://i.ibb.co/BPwcGy4/image.png
An even older version from 2009: https://i.ibb.co/BNc1dQc/image.png
Even with his terrible personality, if he put some effort into it he could have funded a bunch of indie developers and gotten a ton of clout and asskissing as a result.

:libertarian-alert: or just :le-pol-face: with immature tastes?
:both-sides: ?
My favourite story about notch is when they had the Minecraft celebration shindig in Stockholm and invited everyone involved with the development - past and present - apart from him. Like, they didn't even acknowledge him in the entire evening. And I even think he was in town at the same time - so I imagined him sitting in a car nearby watching the guests go in, bitterly dribbling poison. Also, his fiancé left him soon after the MS deal, got married to someone else IIRC and is, apparently, super-happy lol
Much like Elon Musk, Notch is proof that you very much can be a rich loser.
It's proof that capital accumulation is spiritually deadening and even capitalism's "winners" are left suffering and unfulfilled (though not nearly as much as they deserve to)
lmao go back to your empty mansion and suck rotten M&Ms from your dispensers because no one ever visits your bigoted bitch ass
it's wild how he's not even awful in a novel, interesting way. he created maybe the most successful video game of all time and he has the beliefs, tastes, and vocabulary of a freshman CS student on reddit.
Being a man-child could be classified as a real psychological disorder.
Notch is the closest to a "self-made" billionaire that we'll ever get. I want to be clear, I'm not making excuses for him. This is as good as it gets. This.
He’s not even self made. Minecraft was originally an Infiniminer clone. I don’t think he’s particularly good at the business side of things either. He was a moderately capable programmer who got really lucky and minimized the sort of squandering that people typically do with such a lucky break.
Every time Notch does a whiny tweet like this just imagine his muffled voice shouting it at the new Minecraft dev team from outside a window, jealous because he's been locked out. Makes it a lot more satisfying.
i'm really sad about how he turned out since he was a huge inspiration for me back in the day :sadness:
kill your heroes
I grew up worshiping John Carmack and now he does virtual reality shit for Facebook. :doomer:
Isn't he buds with Andrew ''communism fucking sucks'' Hussie
To be fair, I think most of the people here have brainwormed liberal friends and family member
I can confirm. I love my friend, but man she's a lib. I think she has a chance of being jokerfied soon tho
Notch got exactly what he wanted: Billions of dollars, power, attention, and in turn it was probably the worst thing that ever happened to him. He seems to hate everyone, including himself
Any time someone says that, you know which group they'll support when capitalism is in crisis
What did he get mad at GMTK for? Promoting accessibility in the industry?
Imagine the most vile caricature of a "gamer" from 2013. Notch is that and worse.
GMTK is vague about it but apparently it had something to do with disability and/or women. So you're probably in the right ballpark
I refuse to do any further research on something so stupid
If that's the worst thing someone says then I can't be assed to get mad about it :shrug-outta-hecks:
I was never really a "fan" of his, but I had some general fondness since I got into game jams from one of his jam timelapses.
Anyway fuckim, choke on your sour patch kids fedora head ass
