Use java than 🤷
Or use bedrock and ignore all the bullshit if you can.
Are free versions even close to Minecraft in features, polish, and all that?
I personally think that Minecraft is one of the best games you can buy for the fairly low price, community, multiplayer, etc.
They are more than complete/polished with multiplatform support, with healthy modding communites, & better performance since they aren’t built on Java. In the past your money went to the developers—now it goes to megacorp Microsoft with little done in terms of maintenance.
Minecraft has gotten a lot of updates after Microsoft bought Mojang.
I don’t personally mind paying a small amount for a good product that is constantly getting better after many years.
Sure Java could have better performance but it’s rare that it matters much on modern computers.
You do you but I don’t think paying for things is the end of the world.
At that point play the free alternative and dont give your money to Microsoft. Do you love throwing your hard earned money at Microsoft?
I just doubt that the free alternatives are as good and Minecraft is really cheap anyways.
Have you tried the free alternatives? I guess to me its not the price alone its the principles of giving Microsoft money.
But why would I really care if the money is going to Microsoft and Mojang if I’m getting a very good product?
Cause they have a history of embrace, extend, and extinguish, and they have played a key role in enshittification of tech and internet.
