Why doesn't he use his billions to create new games?

Why would he be in any hurry? He's got all the time in the world to mess around with various passion projects and/or prototypes.

Plus he probably figured that what he created is so immense and influential he's going to let others vie for gamers' playtimes for a bit, and he'd be right.

This desu

>build a compound in the middle of nowhere
But what if you get under attack by ninjas?
You'll be so screwed!

Why would he? when he can just play more factorio

He'd rather hoard wealth like a fat kike

He tried making some but gave up because he sucks at making games now. Anyone remember him doing a live stream showing off a space shooter game?

>just play more factorio
there's nothing more pleasurable than a cold tin of beans and playing factorio

I never understood why billionaires don't spend their money in more entertaining ways. Why has there never been a case of a billionaire saying, yo Guillermo Del Toro, here's $200 million, go make that Lovecraft movie. Or giving working developers money to make a new game, Notch doesn't have to be involved in the process, he can just be a producer.

I mean when you have this much money that you don't mind losing $100 million, why does it matter if the film or game is a flop? You'll still make some of the investment money back and you're still filthy rich afterwards.

>eats from processed sugar candy wall everyday
>sigh why am I so fat and depressed

Notch is an autismo who was never in it for the money, the dude just wanted to code shit. I remember when cancelled that coding space ship game he said something like it had become too much of big deal and basically wasn't the scale he wanted to work at.

Why doesn' t he donate his billions to the alt-right? Imagine what we could do with that kinda money.

Imagine your biggest success becoming the worst thing to ever happen to you.

some dubai prince organized a Tekken invitational tournament this year with $100k+ price pool

video games don't cost money to make (besides paying for engines and stuff but those are optional), they only cost creativity

Reminder incel is a way of mind. This is the house he bought. A house meant for parties and shit. What a retard.

and yet it's the creative aspects of making video games that are the most restricted by monetary concerns.

Because he's a one hit wonder and he knows it. He tried making another game(Scrolls) and it flopped hard. He's probably better off just sitting on his Minecraft money.

I would stop thinking about work if I had a lot less money than he did

When u have that much of money u don't need more duhh

have fun with your ruined liver

If your that rich you can just buy another

upvoted

Why should he?

Why do people buy big houses anyway? I'd rather have a small house with lots of land around it for planting a huge garden.

>tfw you'll never go drink at notch's place with like three other guys and just sorta hang out

That's dumb, I would've unironically just rented a room in an apartment and live like a slob everyday.

He never designed a game. Minecraft was a tech demo for voxel octrees that eventually had a bunch of RPG shit tacked on. And he can only code in Java. Not even well. Minecraft only got big because he posted the most early versions to Yea Forums who spread it around and gave him tips. He got lucky.

I don't think he can. Pretty sure he just stole the code from another game that was similar and every update so far has been a community mod.

Maybe he can program, but we have not seen any evidence.

If you actually read his blogpost when he left you'd see that he doesn't want to make any more famous games and only want to make half-baked 'games' in his basement.

The billions are instead used for a few maids, sex slaves, instant food and the Hall of the Sweet Tooth.

notch, pewdiepie, jontron
see a pattern? the true way to success in gaming is to take your winnings and leave gaming

He never made a game himself. He has no clue.

This looks cool and all, but do you really need a house that big? Especially if you live alone? I will never understand rich people

You could literally build a house bigger and nicer than that, with a wall and gate, top of the line security, in a rural US location not in CA, for probably half the lifetime cost of that house. You'll spend more in taxes over 10-20 years than the cost of a new house. And yeah the property will appreciate, but that's true of any real estate not next to an industrial area. You'd make more on a different property in the long run. Not to mention that CA is about 10 years away from Mad Max water wars. Just a really stupid place for a fuck-off pad.

If you're into white people build a nice place in rural Oregon or Washington. Those places have like 98% white populations. No mexicans, plenty of water, cheaper property taxes and costs, it's close enough to LA, Seattle, Portland, San Fran, etc if you need to travel for business or to party for a weekend.

He can't create something new until someone else creates it for him so he can steal it

Physical assets vs. liquid assets. If you somehow fuck up and a portion of your assets disappear overnight, you still have dozens of other options to move and sell your assets.

t. acidic jew

200 millon dollars would be 10% of his networth. If he spends his money like that he wouldn't stay rich for very long.

Don't forget his DCPU flop.

>lmao bruh just do the white flight somewhere else

He also raged at his team and cursed them out. He's socially inept and couldn't stand they they refused to be his little slaves stroking his ego forever.

for the same reason he quit. he got sick and tired of people bitching about updates and despite trying to do the right thing it pissed off the youtubers and their brain dead fans to attack him. so all in all, notch never did anything wrong before leaving

He seems like a dude who values a mostly white society, so why live somewhere with mostly brown people? He's not even American but he lives somewhere in which half the people speak Spanish. Seems like an odd choice. Why not just move to Detroit or Chicago?

For the same reason Valve doesn't do jackshit with the money it's sitting on.

He didn't post those early versions to Yea Forums. It was all Yea Forumsirgins openly pirating it. But he didn't take any action, and it the word-of-mouth via piracy helped build the brand so the general thrust of your statement is correct

Would you?

they can't find me, I live in the middle of nowhere

You are joking right? I guarantee you that if someone actually interviewed him about his political thoughts he'd give the cop out "I'm a classic liberal" argument. There is a reason he lives in California.

watching this even makes me feel alone, giant ass rooms with nothing in them, multi seat theater just for you to sit alone, candy wall with no one to share with. no wonder he's depressed

Anything he creates now would exist in Minecraft's shadow.

What a reddit tier post this is

>billionaire
>only 23,000 square feet

Seems like a pretty lame way to be rich

New rich doesnt know how to be productive with his money.
Breaking news

because big houses are nice. I lived in the same apartment when I was a teenager, except first I had the big sub-apartment with its own bathroom, apartment door and fridge, but then I was moved temporarily to a smaller room for renovations, and then my mom lent out that sub-apartment to someone and I had to move to the smallest room, which was so small there was no space between my bed and desk chair. My enjoyment decreased each time. Why not get a house that's big as fuck? Of course you'll have open spaces and not many small rooms you'll have no use for. Then there's the utility of being able to have a pool, gym, tennis court, garage, dining hall, enough bedrooms for any visitors, cinema, arcade, etc.

He cucked Beyonce and Jay Z out of that mansion iirc, I remember that they were extremly salty about it

You missed where he mentioned getting some of it back. That's exactly how venture capital firms work - many diverse bets, most of which are losers, but also long as you statistically have an average net win over your whole portfolio you don't go broke / make huge profits.

You could fund thousands and thousands of risky indie projects and still turn your billions into more billions

I'm surprised her fans didn't burn the place down if that's the case

Rich people don't care about being rural, they care about being around other rich people so they can do rich people shit together. Why do they need a house in aryanville when they're inside private clubs and estates 99% of the time anyway?

I highly doubt hes just sitting on the money he made from selling minecraft. Most people start investing in various things and start finding ways to make a passive income. Who knows - he might start investing in passion projects as he grows older and becomes less of a twatter grump.

minecraft is a shitty sandbox that only got popular because it was one of the first sandboxes, so it would be easy as fuck to top as long as he hires someone who can actually make games.

His twitter is full of "I"m working on this cool thing, see gif" and then it never shows up again, idk. Seems like he hasn't stopped, he just went back to being a floundering shitter and minecraft was just a fluke.

Honestly that just seems like a sad existence
Does he really not do anything except post on social media to troll the libtards and (presumably) play videogames?
If I had that money and that expertise I would honestly at least attempt to make another game.

How fun would it be to assault this place with automatic weapons? I'll bet it's shockingly easy to get on the grounds.

he posted the browser version here, I played it. t.b.h. I thought it was going to be an underground cult game at best, guess I was btfo lole

He doesn't even use his billions to develop a social life.

>Why doesn't he use his billions to create new games?
He doesn't know how, all he can do is steal games

>that expertise
dude, he made a AGDG-tier game and then got mad rich and hired a bunch of people who didn't do shit, he has no game dev skills aside from pajeet-tier coding abilities

I think I would be the same as him that amount of money to be honest

you would get blowned up by a creeper :P xD

He's deep in the trenches right now fighting jews.
Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if he's funding some nationalist organization.

Why would he need to?
He still makes games, he still codes because it's his hobby, but he doesn't need to do literally anything for the rest of his life, he has no need to make any more money so he can just fuck around doing whatever he finds fun.

Seeing people born after it was made playing it really made me want to kill myself and switch timelines

>Three other guys
>Implying Notch has even that many friends
The rotten candy in the walls is still the funniest thing I've heard of

thats gotta suck to have no dreams or aspirations besides being rich. If I were him my philanthropy would kick in and I'd still want to be useful to the world somehow. Either by making new games or helping people less fortunate in some way.

Idk, I'd buy a larger house because the idea is that you'd never move houses again, so you want it to have enough space for whatever you might want to do, be that make rooms for specific things, invite people to stay, have kids, whatever. You also tend to have hired help when that rich, and you want them to not be right next door to you so you can hear them cooking or cleaning or fucking around doing whatever.

Because

Trolling people on Twitter>making ganes, having new experiences, losing weight or exploring every hedonistic desire you want

well, you'd think it would be more satisfying to realize some incredible vision than to fuck around coding inventory systems for a non-game that runs on programmer art

What if being a lame shut-in on Twitter is his greatest hedonistic desire?

He travels a lot.

>Everyone will compare everything he makes to minecraft
Why not just make a game and release it anonymously, or under a fake name?

if thats the case why even waste money on a mansion in california? He doesn't even seem like the type to flex on people.

Because if you start handing shit out, people start getting pissy over who you hand it to. People who feel like they deserve the handout start begging and turn hateful when they don't get it. You'll get 100,000 people begging for ~50k for their gay little startup and you'll never get a day's rest unless you do what Notch is and turn into a twitter hermit.

Even if he made a mediocre game it would sell extremely well based on his name alone though.

how can money develop you a social life if you were alway awkward as fuck

Because he never gave a shit in the first place. Other people that hit the lottery of having a hit game, movie, comic etc. Put their money into what they love. And you can see all he loves is himself.

He was doing that for awhile. I bet he is still gamedeving under a nom de plume.

The dudes that created TNMT gave out millions to creators. Also one of them bought the rights to the european magazine heavy metal.

>get guaranteed fit with hired personal trainer
>hire speech therapist or whatever to help with not sounding like an autist who's only spoken once every couple of weeks for the past couple of years
>use new face to go unnoticed in new social circles to practice social skills, with hobbies that cost enough to filter out leeching riffraff
Viola.

Notch is a special case - he's basically what would probably happen if one of us faggots ended up with that kind of money which is buy a a nice house somewhere and coast. Most other people I know with that kind of money are usually obsessed with acquiring more money. I sometimes think that more unmotivated rich people might be better for the world at times considering some of the evil shit people do to acquire more wealth.

Old money peeps are fun people. They're still around today, very few of them get access to the family jewels, so to speak, without shaping up first.
Nouveau Riche are always insufferable faggots.

>considering some of the evil shit people do to acquire more wealth.
such as?

He doesn't need to.

Microsoft already ruined Minecraft, the concept is not what made it great, autistic 12 yo did

The one thats fresh on my mind is the opioid crisis and the Sackler family.

I would shitpost on Yea Forums and Yea Forums and sometimes Yea Forums. Fuck twitter.

The thing is twitter gives him way more (you)'s from the people he wants to troll.

I would shitpost in the settings menu
>Style: goatse

Originally they'd buy as huge of a house as they could and everyone in the family lived there and rarely moved out so they could accumulate their wealth for projects other than covering your need for shelter.
