He accused Notch of being petty for not liking Facebook, the company poised to make him wealthier. Hunh. How about that. It's such an obvious self-serving post, why would anyone respond?

Responding to this statement directly, Bleszinski said, "I understand. To be clear, it was the manner in which you pulled the plug that I mentioned, not the act itself."

With that comment, and the incessant reaching out from the Oculus team, it seems that having some form of Minecraft was a bullet point in the sale. Whoops!

Must be nice to treat Kickstarter as your angel investor, and stumble into the stock tentacles of Facebook.
