well, now only time will tell if Microsoft will make Mojang keep its shine or if it will be the next RARE...

Mojang didn't really have a shine in the first place... Minecraft was made (and become a success) prior to their creation. All Mojang have done is infrequently release updates and make something called "Scrolls" for which there is currently very little interest.

I expect Minecraft will be fine, it may even end up better for having been bought, but i'm still of this opinion this was a colossal waste of money on MS's part. Oh well though, it ain't my money they're spending

Interestingly, some news (including that reported here on VGChartz) says that Microsoft expects to break even on the deal by June 2015! That is plain ole crazy.
