虽然我已经淡出很久了，但这种大消息不参与不行 作了简短快速的翻译，希望大家能多多指正，感谢 ========================================================================== https://mojang.com/2014/09/yes-were-being-bought-by-microsoft/ Yes, the deal is real. Mojang is being bought by Microsoft. 是的，这个交易千真万确，Mojang被微软买下来了。 It was reassuring to see how many of your opinions mirrored those of the Mojangstas when we heard the news. Change is scary, and this is a big change for all of us. It's going to be good though. Everything is going to be OK. <3 看到你们不断替我们发声，使我们感到很安慰（译注：这句看不太懂）。这次变动对我们 所有人来说既剧烈又可怕，但将来总会变好，一切都会没问题的<3 Please remember that the future of Minecraft and you – the community – are extremely important to everyone involved. If you take one thing away from this post, let it be that. 请记得，Minecraft和你─这个社群─的未来，对於任何与这次事件相关的人都极端重要。 如果你只想从这篇文章中带走一项东西，请带走这个原则。 We can only share so much information right now, but we've decided that being as honest as possible is the best approach. We're still working a lot of this stuff out. Mega-deals are serious business. 我们现在只能分享一丁点的资讯，但我们已经做好诚实为上策的打算。我们仍在持续处理 大量的事情，钜额交易不是件轻松的工作。（译注：求修饰这段） Why did you sell Minecraft? 为何你们要卖掉Minecraft？ Minecraft has grown from a simple game to a project of monumental significance. Though we're massively proud of what Minecraft has become, it was never Notch's intention for it to get this big. Minecraft已经从一个简单的游戏成长为一个巨大且重要的计画。虽然我们对於Minecraft 的成就极端自豪，但如此的巨兽却从来就不是Notch的初衷。 As you might already know, Notch is the creator of Minecraft and the majority shareholder at Mojang. He's decided that he doesn't want the responsibility of owning a company of such global significance. Over the past few years he's made attempts to work on smaller projects, but the pressure of owning Minecraft became too much for him to handle. The only option was to sell Mojang. He'll continue to do cool stuff though. Don't worry about that. 你可能早就知道，Notch是Minecraft的创世神和Mojang的大股东。他早打定主意不希望承 担一个拥有世界级影响力公司的责任。在过去这几年，他一直想要从事较小的计画，但是 拥有Minecraft的压力对他来说已经大到无法承担了。唯一的选择是卖掉Mojang。不过他还 是会继续搞很酷的计画，别担心这点。 There are only a handful of potential buyers with the resources to grow Minecraft on a scale that it deserves. We've worked closely with Microsoft since 2012, and have been impressed by their continued dedication to our game and its development. We're confident that Minecraft will continue to grow in an awesome way. 只有一小搓有潜力的买家，有足够的资源使Minecraft成长到它应有的规模。我们从2012 年就和微软有紧密的合作，他们对於我们的游戏及其发展持续不断的贡献使我们印象深刻 。我们有信心Minecraft会持续往令人敬畏的方向成长。 Minecraft means many different things to millions of people across the world, and to each and every Mojangsta. We feel that this is the best way for everyone – you guys included – to benefit. Minecraft对於世界上数百万的玩家，和每个Mojang员工来说都代表许多不同的意义。我们 认为这对於所有人─包括各位正在看这篇文章的人─是最好的。 What about the other editions of Minecraft? Will they stop being developed? 那Minecraft其他平台的版本呢？它们会停止开发吗？ There's no reason for the development, sales, and support of the PC/Mac, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, PS4, Vita, iOS, and Android versions of Minecraft to stop. Of course, Microsoft can't make decisions for other companies or predict the choices that they might make in the future. 没有理由停止Minecraft对於PC/Mac、Xbox 360、Xbox One、PS3、PS4、Vita、iOS和 Android的开发、贩卖及支援。当然，微软无法替其他公司作决定或者预测其他公司未来的 决定。 We're extremely proud of all editions and the awesome things you have achieved through playing together. 因为有大家的一起参与，我们对於所有版本Minecraft和上面惊人的成就都极端骄傲。 Is the game going to change? Will we still be able to make videos, mods, awesome builds, and all the cool stuff we've created over the past few years? 这款游戏会变吗？我们仍能做影片、模组、世界奇观、和所有我们这些年搞出来的超屌玩 意吗？ Minecraft will continue to evolve, just like it has since the start of development. We don't know specific plans for Minecraft's future yet, but we do know that everyone involved wants the community to grow and become even more amazing than it's ever been. Stopping players making cool stuff is not in anyone's interests. Minecraft会继续进化，就如同一开始那样。我们还不知道微软未来的计画，但我们确信任 何与之相关的一份子都会希望这个社群会继续成长，并不断超越过去。阻止玩家搞酷玩意 绝对不会受到任何人欢迎。 What about the Mojang staff? What's happening to you guys? 那Mojang员工呢？你们会何去何从？ Though it's too early to confirm which of us will continue working on Minecraft or other projects, we predict that the vast majority (if not all) Mojangstas will continue to work at Mojang for the time being. 现在要决定我们要继续替Minecraft或其他计画工作还太早，不过我们预期大部分员工都会 暂时在Mojang继续工作。 The founders: Notch, Carl, and Jakob are leaving. We don't know what they're planning. It won't be Minecraft-related but it will probably be cool. 创世神们：Notch、Carl和Jakob会离开，我们不知道他们接下来的创世计画，那不会和 Minecraft相关，但可能会很酷。 What's happening to the other Mojang projects, like Scrolls? 那其他Mojang计画呢？像是Scrolls？ We don't know yet. We'll share any news as soon as we do. 我们还不知道，一有新消息我们就会立刻发布。 Will you still be able to tweet about features and interact with the community on a personal level, just like you've done over the years? 你们仍会在推特上以个人名义继续与社群互动吗？就像以往那样？ Yes! That's not going to change. 当然！这不会改变。 How much money was the company bought for? 公司卖了多少？ Microsoft acquired Mojang for a smooth 2.5 BILLION dollars. 微软花了25亿美金来买Mojang。 Thanks for reading everybody. 感谢所有看这篇文章的人。 Owen – @bopogamel, Lydia – @lydiawinters, and the Mojangstas. -- 到那时，在壁炉边，当孙子坐在某位老人的膝盖上，问道：「爷爷，你在亡灵天灾入侵的 时候干什麽呢？」 而他不用尴尬地干咳一声，把孙子移到另一个膝盖上，吞吞吐吐地说 ：「啊……爷爷我当时在清净农场挖牛粪。」与此相反，他可以直盯着他的眼睛理直气壮 地说： 「孙子，爷爷我当年在立法院议场和那个狗娘养的三百暴民并肩作战！」 ～《太阳花全书》 第一章第二节 --
