Minecraft

[Tree]

Remember when you beat Minecraft (or just entered and exited the end in a server/custom map) and this long fart-huffing text popped up and you skipped it?
Well, the man behind that is having a freakout!

I wrote a story for a friend

In which I liberate the ending to Minecraft from Microsoft… and give it to you.

Turns out that Mojang's contractual leniency has struck again, the text is now technically public domain!

This guy is something else.

Divorced once, avoidant personality, has to justify everything he does, is never the bad guy even while saying things are his fault, doesn't know how money works, chronically poor as a result, him being walked all over is just the way the universe is man, and so on.

He could be a lolcow if he weren't so effeminate that microsoft and mojang literally called this outcome merely from reading his conflict avoidant emails nearly a decade ago.

From a different substack post of his where he tells you why he is so smart (but not a genius! The mushrooms keep him humble):

I kinda understand where this guy is coming from, but I've either gone stupid or for some other reason stopped thinking fourth wall breaks are the secret to the universe.

To be fair, how (some of) these hippy types manage to drift through life like monks is a skill of its own. He does have two kids.

Angry Poem ranting aside, version 1.19.3 was released.

Here's a video from SlicedLime going over everything new:

From the extract of the contract he posts in that blog, this looks like a very, very standard contract of work from an entertainment company. Going off the fact Julian Gough appears to be a writer who doesn't normally work with games, I can see how the contract may look scary compared to what he's probably used to.
From reading his post, it sounds like the contract Mojang sent boils down to "we will pay you the agreed amount, you get a kickback for your contribution, we own the rights to your work as part of our game and you'll be under NDA because this is a games company contract." Incredibly standard stuff.
Fact it sounds like Mojang went back and re-sent the contract before the Microsoft deal closed to make sure Gough got his cut suggests to me that they were at very least trying to act in good faith and not screw him over. Though this could have just been Mojang making sure to cover their own asses for that deal, so whatever.

Kinda shitty that Gough hasn't seen more than €20k for his work - even if it is a meandering, nonsensical piece of crap at the end of the game - but he didn't sign the contract which offered him more so sucks to suck I guess?

I could tell he was exceptional when he wrote a whole long ass post passive aggressive to Mojang and Microsoft about a shitty poem basically nobody reads. He might be a good minor cow to keep tabs on once in a while.

Lol this might be due to Microsoft's influence but Mojang itself has almost certainly been ideologically colonized at this point.

 

[Slav Power]

That is a fucking lie, because I am 100% not welcome here. As soon as Mojang would get some info that I happen to hate trannies they would prohibit me from even playing singleplayer in a game I paid for. And they are definitely not glad that a transphobe like me is playing their game.

Has been for a long while. For example when the PolyMC drama went down KingBDogz repeated the lie that Lenny was spreading bigotry and transphobia when he simply wanted politics out of his launcher project.

It's dumb, but I've since learned that caring about it isn't worth the energy.

Aren't you pirating the game though? As far as Mojang is concerned, you don't exist.

„I wrote a story that goes into the credits of a game every single player skips and had nothing to do with why the game sold so well, not expecting any payment, and all these assholes did was pay off my debt and six months of my family’s whole living expenses!“

What a faggot, what a retarded gay faggot writing this long winding narcissistic diatribe on how he is completely okay with this and did he already mention how badly they wronged him by not fulfilling his additional wishes and demands he never voiced to anyone ever?

 

[Maldavius Figtree]

Plus he got paid and took the payment, you don’t need a written explicit contract for every single business transaction ever.

If you try to sell me a car, and I say „sure I’ll pay 20,000$“ and you give me your bank details and I wire you the money and take the keys and drive that car for years while you comply, you do not get to make claims about the ownership years after the fact just because there is not a signed paper saying „contract“ above it.

Plus no way in hell this business savvy stone cold killer CEO would not have demanded an invoice to write off those expenses. Nigger got 20,000$ for a silly short story he initially expected to do for free, quit complaining you mongoloid.

Edit:
> In fact, when I eventually asked Markus to mention something of mine, he said he didn’t want to. He hadn’t even heard of Carl’s promise, and I felt embarrassed that I’d asked.

You literally posted screenshots of Markus tweeting your works, giving you exactly that advertising you asked for you lying grifting fag.

I bought it this year for 100zł.

 

[Maldavius Figtree]

I am MATI.
That faggot really blames the financial pressure from not receiving more money by mojang on his failing marriage.
Remember, by his own admission he did not expect payment when he started out working on the poem, and the 20k he got lasted him many months longer than the few days it took to write.
Should’ve just got a job maybe?

He really acts like he played a major part in Minecraft’s creation. Jesus Christ that guy is a narcissist on a wholly different level.

Definitely cow material. I wonder if he's going to provide more milk or if he's going back into obscurity after his 15 minutes of fame.

It's a "you are what you think of it" kind of story.

For me at least, i can tell the guy was upset that he didn't get the recognition he thought he deserved. Money wasn't exactly the crux of the issue but just part of it. If i was in his shoes I'd feel the same, if you gave me only money I would've rejected it as much as it was because i know the message behind the money is probably "shut the fuck up, sign the contract and stop being a retard nuisance".

But again, that's him giving his two cents and me giving my own. You could make the argument that both Notch and this guy were retards for not doing the proper legal exchange before using the poem in the official game and that the only smart person was this "Carl" guy. It would be a good argument too.

The situation is already resolved anyways. Your own take is the most important which is ironic since, if i recall correctly, was also the point of the end poem.
