Variety: 'Minecraft’ Creator Excluded From Anniversary Due to ‘Comments and Opinions’

What a weak headline, understating what a scumbag Notch is. Atleast it's good Microsoft made clear they want nothing to do with him.
"Comments and opinions" is an awfully whitewashed way of putting "blatant bigotry and calls for violence."
Good.
Keep the game away from this trash opinions and hate. Game is a family game so it shouldn't be tied to something like this.

I mean that's not really a professional way of speaking and that's a problem for sure.
They're reporting on what Microsoft said - they can't editorialize a quote.
Came for this tweet.
Notch is a terrible person and shouldn't be given a platform to spout his nonsense
I don't really think that they're interested in a big public fight about this. Publicly noting that the guy who created the game is not welcome at an event like this is already a pretty damning indictment in and of itself without shedding more light on the specifics as to why.
Sure, but people know why he's being excluded and "Comments and opinions" is a good way to put it.
This is the right call. Good on Microsoft.
I'm sure Notch is miserable and at this point he basically seems to be a bigoted basement-dweller who happens to be a billionaire. Just means a much bigger basement to rattle around in.

And what does this have to do with the topic?
This is a thread about the anniversary celebration of Minecraft, so if you don't care, why are you here?
Fuck that... Erase him from existence.
Wheres an Infinity Guantlet when you need one? Can just Snap him out.
As far as I am aware they've not taken him out of the credits.
Saying he's excluded for comments opinions is a clear way of saying he's opinions are bullshit without dredging it all up again, the less we talk about him the better
I'll freely admit to complete ignorance here. What's the story on this?
I mean they're very clearly trying to completely distance themselves from him. Does it really matter when not only have they updated the game to patch out any mentions of him, but he's not even in the series' anniversary? I feel like those actions are much more telling than phrasing
Thus Spake Zara Tustra
(seriously though, I love this tweet. Fuck notch.)
People realizing Notch is a POS and jokingly attributing Minecraft to someone else, e.g. "it came from space" or Miku.
