Ett utdrag från den nyligen publicerade Minecraft-boken på Wired har avslöjat spännande detaljer från Microsofts uppköp av Mojang. Det kanske mest spännande är den summa pengar de anställda erbjöds för att jobba kvar i minst ett halvår efter uppköpet:
"Everyone at Mojang was made the same offer: whoever stayed on board for at least six months after the sale would be rewarded with two million Swedish crowns, approximately three hundred thousand dollars, after taxes."
Personalen var dock milt sagt tveksamma mot den nya chefen på företaget som envisades med att kalla utvecklaren Minecraft och inte Mojang:
"According to people present at the meeting, Matt Booty misspoke several times when discussing Mojang's future. Instead of saying Mojang, he referred to the company simply as Minecraft, quickly correcting himself. For the others in the room, it was awkward to say the least. Less than half of them worked directly with Minecraft. Every time the man from Microsoft confused the name of the company he'd acquired with the game it was known for, he inadvertently pointed to the elephant in the room. Yes, Microsoft had acquired all of Mojang. But it was only really interested in Minecraft."
