Remember kids: bedrock sucks, play Java instead
Counterpoint : Java’s shit performance . Bedrock performs better I heard . Still not gonna play tho
Counter-counterpoint: mods like sodium and optifine exist, making the game run smoothly, even on older machines

What the fuck
Minecoins are used to buy… skins?
For Minecraft?
A game where you can make a new skin with MS Paint?
Where there’s already over a decade of community skins made for it?
On console you can’t do that. Also worlds and addons. (most of them suck and are just cash grabs.)
*on the Java version
Microsoft created the bastar–bedrock edition to rip kids off by selling them stuff they could easily have for free.
I’m reminded of a post from elsewhere: “You hate all the parts of capitalism separately, without realizing they’re all the same thing”
Wait Minecoin is Minecraft bedrock currency for buying skins etc, My first thought when I read it was it’s some kind of crypto shit. But yeah still sucks, especially for Minecraft a game that in Java version was literally open to community created skins, mods worlds etc for free.
Java version seems superior to bedrock in just about every way. But MS bought it to monetize it and here we are. I run a local server to play with my kids sometimes and it works great.
Java version forever. My username is apparently worth like $5k because I’ve had it since Minecraft was $12.
People buy usernames???
Apparently! It’s crazy.

Is that a real thing? I’ve also got an old ass $12 account and could sure use 5k right about now.
It’s probably not an accurate number, but there’s an app that will give you an estimate of what your MC username is worth if sold. I recall mine being a lot because the name is 5 characters, nothing random, and contains no numbers.
Duh? Ignorance moves 99% of micro transactions business. It’s either whales, or children, almost every time.
