Now if people want the game itself for free, and legally there is one logical option. Use a service like Trialpay and monetize the game by letting people get it for free once they complete enough offers. True, that won't necessarily help some of the younger set but it is an option.
And if you're wondering what would happen, Look at tf2.
Everyone will rage, F2ps will be banned from every server until people stop being butthurt, Then mojang will add hats.
Pay $20 for a stack of diamonds. Pay $5 for 10 levels. Uberpower in a month, can't be killed because you're a super donator.
But remember guys,even if it's free don't try to blame us free players,most of you were only under 15 and only a few of you can make money on your own so that's your parents' money,if any kid wants to act cocky i'd just wish they were in their dad's balls 15 years or so ago and got fapped away
Let's be friends...
Minecraft free to play would be retarded and annoying. I don't support this whatsoever.
It's Sick, not Slick
Minecraft is worth MUCH more than what you pay for it. Not because it is fun, but because of the built up money. Observe:
Lets say a movie is $7. That movie is 2 hours long. Doing the math, 1 hour of that movie is $3.50. Watching it only once or twice, which is about average times watched would give you an average of $10.50. So, that movie is worth only a little more than paid for.
Minecraft is $26.95. It has not time limit. People who play Minecraft usually play it for hours. People play it hundreds of times. You get more than $200 dollars from it.
Agh, just noticed this topic's old... Well now free to play players have classic, not Indev.
Why should this game become free? 1. It would reduce expenses for devs and it would become harder to update. 2. We already Paid!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SSSSSSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUPPPPPPPPPPOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm just a Minecraft player that likes to give my opinion. Nothing special to see here.
Give them older versions and no multiplayer, and just add creative. Replace classic with that... the 6 year olds are happy.
