I understand your point of view, but the Minecraft deal with Oculus wasn't even particularly public or well-known at the time (they had only been in discussions for two weeks before the acquisition, and it wasn't official yet). Notch "announced" it very dramatically by announcing that it was cancelled. To me, this feels like an action that was intended to stir controversy, but I will admit I could be wrong. You may see it differently. As for Jonathan Blow, I'll refrain from commenting because I don't know anything about that situation.
