Quick Quotes: Notch on EA’s meeting with Mojang
“EA came to see us. I think they had plans, but picked up the vibe. Nothing’s been said since – it’s all very high politics. I play their games, and they make great games, but we are too far from each other. They can make their games, and I’ll buy them. We’ll make ours, and they can buy them. Not the property – that’s ours. But they can play it like everyone else.” – Minecraft creator Markus Persson on his meeting with EA CEO John Riccitiello, via Develop.
