Re: So uhh...
I highly doubt they'll fuck it up too badly in the near future. My guess is that, once the initial fuss is over, people will forget MS even owns Mojang.

Will we have to rename futurecraft? What effect does this have on copernicus, if fr0st's still working on it/gonna work on it once he's back from india?

Don't tell anybody, but to this day I have a faint hope for Futurecraft, or something similar to it, to happen. Within my lifetime.

Re: So uhh...
Why the fuck would we have to rename? If Starcraft is fine we should be.

Re: So uhh...
The "craft" suffix can't be trademarked or copyrighted.
If we made a game called "Futurecraft", we'd be fine. Case in point: Bethesda tried to sue Mojang for their Scrolls game ("The Elder Scrolls" =/= "Scrolls"). Lawsuit phale.

Re: So uhh...
We live in a world in which the word 'saga' is trademarked. The question wasn't entirely insane.

IRC Notch challenged them to a winner-wins-the-lawsuit game of something. They declined.
