Minecraft creator: frituplay should be banned
Shareware games must be recognized as illegal,” the author of the Minecraft game Markus Persson said on his Twitter account.

The reason for the statement was the phrase of George Broussard, one of the creators of the Duke Nukem series of computer games.
He said via Twitter that “snobby developers who oppose frituplay will have to step over themselves one day.”
At some point, game developers who are elitist and anti-free to play games, will have to get over themselves.

Перссон среагировал мгновенно. Через несколько минут в сети появился его твит, глясящий: «Фритуплей – это мошеничество, его нужно признать незаконным». Автор Minecraft
@georgeb3dr fuck that noise. Free to play is bait and switch and should be illegal.

Перссон уже высказывался против условно-бесплатных игр. В 2011 году в блоге он he claimed that “people who believe that the future belongs to frituplay are mostly developers, not players.”
Recall that the game Minecraft: Pocket Edition is paid. It was launched about 3 years ago and has remained a peculiar phenomenon since its creation: paid titles usually do not enjoy such success.
