I can't want for the "Minecraft" label to get slapped on unrelated products because its the only non-poisoned brand Microsoft owns.

You know, if they changed to color palette slightly, Microsoft Windows Phone 8 with Live Tiles could become Minecraft Phone 9 with Smart Blocks.

alsoFMguru posted:you know what has really been holding us back in the consumer space? the way we arent slapping our main brand - the one that reminds everyone of the barely functional machines they use at the job that they hate - on all of our products. phones are very personal devices, so we should try and create strong associations with restrictive security policies, malware outbreaks, and chubby it guys in mlp tshirts - that should drive consumer adoption, particularly at the high end. we should make them out of creaky black plastic, to really drive the point home.

minecraft is kinda fun at first. gather resources and defend yourself from monsters, build a little fort or whatever hey neat unfortunately doing anything more than building a stone hut is agonizingly tedious, which is bad because it is more sandbox than game. this is why spergs and 10 year olds love it

minecraft is good when you start playing it because you get a great sense of "I can do anything" but the pointlessness of it soon sets in

backlit keyboard, usable trackpad, app store you'd want to use, can be used on a lap any advertising where you feel the need to compare a list of features with a competitor like an dyp phone buyer just ends up making you look horribly insecure.

all this annoying house stuff is going to be hilariously funny in about 5 years when everybody wants to distance themselves from it. but that will require us raising people who know how to write music, so who knows maybe we'll be in the 4:4 house hole for a while
