At that point play the free alternative and dont give your money to Microsoft. Do you love throwing your hard earned money at Microsoft?

I just doubt that the free alternatives are as good and Minecraft is really cheap anyways.

Have you tried the free alternatives? I guess to me its not the price alone its the principles of giving Microsoft money.

But why would I really care if the money is going to Microsoft and Mojang if I'm getting a very good product?
