I tried the Windows 10 update, but it's missing so much of the core game. In my tests it runs better, smoother, and works overall better on Linux than on Windows. I sincerely dualboot Linux now just for Minecraft. I was able to test out the latest 1.9 snapshot on Linux and it's great. So here are my noob questions:
Will they ever block Linux?
Do they have the authority to do so now?
Will Microsoft eventually roll all the features into the "Windows 10 Edition"?
About how long until we see a 1.8 or 1.9 equivalent for the "Windows 10 Edition"?
Basically I want to know is, how much power does Microsoft have over the development of the core vanilla game?
I have been playing Minecraft since the early days and love it for what it is, and I know I can probably google all of these things but it's easier to make a post, go to work, have answers when I come home. I just have a lot of concerns I want to hear from reputable sources on. Not just some blog post spreading some lie, or hearsay, but real facts. The Internet is full of blogs full of lies and sorting through them all is a hassle.
I would very much like the Aether added to Minecraft Vanilla at some point in 1.9's development. I understand that 1.9 needs to get worked on and released, I want to see the Aether in 1.9.1 or 1.9.2 after bugs have been worked out. It would really be sad to have to wait until 1.10 or 2.0 for the Aether. I really really dislike the Nether, it makes me feel very uneasy and I avoid it. Please please please add the Aether!
Basically without her having to buy a new copy of the game, can I login on her laptop and download my client and play with 2 copies of the game on the same lan? She wants to see what its all about and its easier if she has someone to show her the ropes.
