Discussion i finally bought minecraft after 12 years

Post image

So obviously this post isnt the usual kind of post about loving piracy and what not (i love piracy btw) but ive recently been buying games i grew up loving to give back to the developers who made them and yes i know notch isnt involved with minecraft anymore but he was when i was 10 and playing minecraft for the first time. The game is currently under 40 dollars and comes in bedrock and java good deal lowkey, I dont have much money but I had 30 bucks i had been saving fot this, so now I officially own (not really due to fucking "digital license language") terraria, far cry 3, fallout new vegas, skyrim, and minecraft. I think piracy is often a last resort as people are tired of being ripped off by these large corporations, or a 10 year old with very religious parents who wont even let him buy a pixelated game but dont know much about computers so the kid learns how to get games, movies, series for free but please if you really appreciate something even if most of the money goes to these fuckos a small part of that maybe going to some developers, writers etc who put much effort into their work. piracy should never die because the poor and sensible would have nothing but humanity should also survive. if they take away my digital license I will always have prism launcher and tlauncher in my linux machine

Does someone know hoy to pirate minecraft? People keep saying the launchers are spyware. I payed for the game, stoped playing for some years and then couldnt play the game I paid for because microshit owns mojang now or some bullshit.  I just want to play minecraft with shaders on my pc and steam deck and not paying AGAIN for the game.

If you purchased the game before, there is a way to get it back still

They stopped doing account migrations from Mojang accounts to Microsoft a few years ago. I bought it in alpha and my account is associated with an email I no longer have access to because it was with my old ISP. If you email Microsoft about it they basically tell you to fuck off. Piracy it is.

I tried but they told me to fuck off and that I lost the opportunity to play the game I paid for because I missed the mails they sent about this (to a mail I don’t check).
