minus-squareSkullgrid@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up10·3 months ago… the one that had the blockbuster film come out this year? $958 million worldwide. It is one of the highest-grossing films of 2025 and the second-highest-grossing video game adaptation of all time. That game is dead? The one all the bloody kids play constantly?

minus-squareNewNewAugustEast@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 months agoI was serious that year over year, revenue for Minecraft has been falling. That is true. But I also am serious that when Microsoft forced everyone to switch from a mojang account to a Microsoft account that also lost many players. Bonus: Microsoft can go fuck themselves, I don’t want any thing to do with them.
