DAILY MANIFESTO

Skycraft, Minerim... What?

Posted on Monday, November 14 @ 14:53:57 Eastern by Daniel Bischoff

Above... do you see that? The Notched Pickaxe? I guess that's a weapon in Skyrim? Is it referencing Minecraft and indie mogul, Notch?

You'd certainly think things like nasty lawsuits and such would be dropped between two obviously friendly developers. Maybe the creator of Minecraft should sue? I'm sure they could reach an out-of-court settlement... like maybe sharing the name "Scrolls" between themselves.

Do they at least give good sidequests? Can I use them to put restraining orders against giants?

Yes, because the word notch can't possibly refer to anything else.

Or you know, it could be a pickaxe with a notch in it.

Maybe this is their "take that" against Notch's use of the world Scrolls, which is just dumb. Seems like game developers are becoming as immature as fanboys.

I could care less about this entire Bethesda and Minecraft thing, frankly, if they want to sue, go ahead. If they don't, then don't. I have no sympathy for Notch, anyway. When their user base exceeded 4 million people (and growing) they stopped being independent "Oh pity the poor Notch".
