I'm pretty sure this post is not about Doom at all - it's about Minecraft, and confirmation regarding the recent rumors about Microsoft buying Mojang. He's probably not allowed to talk about the deal, but he's using this post as an allegory to tell Minecraft fans why he's bailing on Minecraft.

What I found interesting was a quote from his previous post: http://notch.net/2014/06/literally-worse-than-ea/ http://notch.net/2014/06/literally-worse-than-ea/ Mojang does not exist to make as much money as possible for the owners. As the majority shareholder, I’d know. Every time a big money making deal comes up that would make a lot of money, it’s of course very tempting, but at the end of the day we choose to do what either makes the most sense for our products, or the things that seem like fun for us at Mojang. This seems to be in conflict with the whole "selling Mojang to M$ for two gigabucks" thing.
