You're only partially right about the people who agreed to an earlier version of the EULA. Whenever the EULA is updated, you are told about it (whether via email or a popup in the launcher) and it always says something along the lines of "by continuing to play minecraft, you agree to the updated EULA". the only people who have a case against the previous EULA are people who have accounts that have remained unused for the last several years.
oh damn
It depends on where you live.
In many countries, just continuing to use the service can not constitute agreeing to new eula. You need to explicitly agree to changes in a lot of places.
And, in many places, it is also not possible to waive the right to sue someone in a EULA.
Came here to say this, glad you beat me to it!
Yeah, ofc anyone that's agreed to an updated version doesn't really have a case here, but there's still millions of accounts in that inactive group. Then again, if they haven't agreed to that in years, I don't see why they'd start caring about it now.
Plus, I don't remember exactly how the updated EULA agreement has worked, but they definitely need to be careful with it. It needs to be pretty explicitly agreed to, I think, based on court precedent (for example, Google just won their lawsuit against Genius because Genius' TOS wasn't forced on you when you first opened the site, even though the courts found Google did break it.)
I'm fairly certain that, at least in some US states, passive agreements are not legally enforceable. A direct, affirmative action is needed to prove that the client has agreed to whatever terms are present in the connected document.

Microsoft is slowly killing Minecraft
Slowly?
Nope
Mojang, aswell as their devs are willing too, infact when the whole 1.19.84 fiasco was happening some screenshots of most of the devs making fun of the entire mc community were leaked
The only thing I will say the games which Microsoft buys are going to be dead in future
Microsoft at first was insanely good for the game, deciding it's too loved to just milk it, but now... They're a cancer.
Recently Microsoft relationship with Minecraft has been a huge topic at the Catholic cherch i've been going to. It's located at Saint Monarch Stefen the III.
This is terrible. What about accounts of people who have passed away or who have forgotten their login credentials? The more reign they keep giving Microsoft, the more Minecraft feels like more of a business rather than game.
Heyy, I'm actually comparing to the p*rn industry. I would concern them both being very similar businesses with Mojang as a individual spending AT LEAST half of their day reasearching the p*rn industry, I would say they are going downhill along with MOJANG !!!
P.S I think Mojang should do as much colaboration as possible faced towards the p*rn industry relationships with Minecraft.
@@heyheyi most sane youtube replier
"Accounts of people who have passed away": Login and migrate it yourself. If you aren't willing/able to, then that is quite literally a personal problem.
"Forgotten their login credentials": Contact Mojang support and get hold of those credentials. If not possible, tough luck; you were never getting in anyway, the account is gone.
Anybody who has managed to hold onto a non-migrated account (meaning they've owned the game for like 7 years at this point) and not migrated it, after having over half a decade to do so, should not be surprised if their account gets deleted. If they valued their $30, they'd have done so a long time ago.
I doubt people who passed away will care about their mc account 😂, if you forgot your password thats your fault, its obvious you should remember those things
@@heyheyi jesse what the fuck are you talking about
What's funny is that EULAs are never seen as something that can be held up in court. People think they can just point to it and say "THEY PRESSED THE AGREE BUTTON" but the courts in the United States do not see that as a valid agreement. Seriously, if they put "we can take away your account at any time" in the EULA, they would still be committing fraud by taking away a product/license you paid for, which is illegal in the United States, where Microsoft does a lot of their business. Essentially Microsoft would wind up in court, their EULA would not have a second glance, and they would likely lose to even the worst lawyer.
But I would still recommend migrating if you haven't already. No sense in going through the legal system when you could just click a few buttons and continue enjoying the game.
It’s not fraud as they are taking away a limited license they gave you which you accepted the terms to when using. You as an individual would know that at any point they can revoke access. There is zero suing going on, and everyone is bringing it up with no validity to back up their statements…
still it could be funny to see them in court
@@ZeyLogger I'd almost pay to see a Streamed court case of someone going against Microsoft, would be comical to say the least
That is the problem, you know how much mojang accounts we don't have access to the emails associated with anymore? The number must be astronomical, most of us created this accounts when we were very young, and just like me I literally don't remember anything about the email.
Nearly every single one of my friend has this issue now, we are all blocked out of our accounts forever, and now they will be deleted.
@@dipster5307 yea a player i know had his own mojang, and hes been trying to migrate it, wont let him do it cuz they blocked it, they said he needs prrof he bought it etc etc, still didnt help.
I was the last owner of Awesomeness!!! before the name was changed and I still have the account to this day. Still burns seeing it get mentioned in these types of videos haha. Great video as always though Aidan
at least it has a minecon 2016 so i guess it's nice it didn't get locked too
@@WreeperXD Yea. It's currently named lilyanna and I never use it but it's nice to still have the account its self.
@@y3057 did you even migrate it
@@WreeperXD If you mean to Microsoft then not yet, to Mojang originally no but it was migrated to Mojang when I got it hence the 2016 being applied
@@y3057 you should migrate it so you don't lose access to it (but after all that's just some piece of advice that some random gives)
My assumption as to why mojang did this is because people were likely selling the accounts for thousands of dollars, and mojang probably didnt like that too much
I think that and the small security risks
@@samuel-wankenobi @HappyPlays this is just the surface...
Hey, I respect your opinion. Although the reason Mojang may be doing this is due to the probability of too many players having sexual intercourse with their minecraft accounts ( NON MINGRATED ONES)
@@heyheyi It's Business and now they can enforce the Xbox eula on us like on Minecraft Bedrock

@@lucavargiu To test things that require multiple accounts, to play with someone who doesn't have one, to play if you got banned, to have one idle online e.g. as a bot, for inventory storage, to take advantage of per player perks twice on servers, etc.
6:38 I'm no lawyer, but I took a business law class and I have to agree with you. This does not seem legal... Mojang may have to refund everyone that wasn't able to migrate. That's a lot of money :0
However, this could also be In the EULA so it could be that players technically agreed to this.
Honestly saw this coming when M$ bought the game. They just want more money, more tracking and more control. Migration is just another step in that process.
Microsoft saw a cash cow in terms of farming people's data and wanted to force migration into Microsoft's account ecosystem. The Microsoft account is not only a steep downgrade in terms of protections against account deletion or ban, but an intrusion of privacy. And as an alpha customer it's a complete violation of the agreement with Mojang. Customers with multiple accounts can't even link them to the same account with Microsoft. If they know that an individual has multiple accounts, their policy is to ban those accounts. This is just another way in which Mojang has failed. Failed to honor the sales it has made to its customers.
Microsoft really only cares about new money coming in, and that is from new game purchases, and purchases of minecoins. They don't believe they are gaining anything by treating the existing customer base with respect. Did you know that Alpha customers are also entitled to add-on content at no additional charge, and that Microsoft hosts Mojang add-ons and sells them for money but provides no avenue for people grandfathered into the game to even get this content? Mojang to my knowledge hasn't even addressed this issue. This is what happens when a company loses touch with its customers, both in terms of mutual appreciation and abiding by contractual agreements.
I dont doubt the community will take action back against Microsoft and Mojang
Lmao, The Community Nor A Protest By Them Is Useless And Will Never And Has Never Done ANYTHING, At Worst A Few Thousand People Stop Playing The Game For A Week Or Two Before Most Returning Which Will Again Do Nothing
@@AlOstosman Learn To Use Proper Cases. Like that, because it is much more readable.
@@Artoooooor No
@@AlOstosman Why did you use uppercases for each beginning letter of every word?
The action that needs to happen: Minecraft authentication used to be done with Yggdrasil, an authentication API server. There are already a handful of individuals who have coded viable clones of Yggdrasil but it needs to mature as a software solution and then gain community adoption. It is possible therefore to point to an alternative authentication solution and maintain online play operability. Alpha customers are within their contractual rights to do such a thing as well and Mojang has no legal basis to prevent it.
Until Mojang acknowledges that they have breached contract and failed to support their customers, particularly those from alpha who helped make the game what it is today through their early support, they should face the consequences of alienating their userbase and forcing them to self-help their way into use of what they paid for. On top of that, they should learn what their support for censorship and fraudulent treatment of the customer costs them.
The biggest issue is people who cannot migrate because they've lost the access to the old email. Not only they can't play on their original account anymore (because unmigrated accounts are locked and cannot play, unless you migrate), now they'll lose their account completely, which will free up their original username, and somebody could potentially take it up before they even have a chance to register it again (paying for the game again). Because in order to complete migration, you need access to the email associated with your account. If you no longer have that access, then anything related to your account safety and security is practically unsolvable. So unfortunately, those people will no longer have an account.
This is the exact problem I’m having rn, I’m trying to recover my old account called creatornumber1 to play on my old worlds and relive my childhood
Mojang ought to honor these accounts for customers who can prove ownership by verifying payment method.
@@peppermintpig974 Which is usually in your email inbox. If you no longer have access to that email account, then it's very hard, unless you printed the payment document, which hardly anyone even does (like I don't for example, I save the paper). If I for some reason lost access to my Gmail account, then I wouldn't be able to recover my Minecraft account. Suffice to say that if I lost access to my Gmail account, then Minecraft account would be the last thing to defend, since I have pretty much everything on my Gmail account: payment method, couple of linked accounts, but most importantly it was used to register bunch of online services, including various social media, and it holds the keys to my UA-cam channels as well, so I'd have much bigger issues on my hand than losing my gaming account.
Yeah this is why Rekrap now uses parkertwo
@@mist4488someone is going to take that name now that you said it dude, you sealed your fate because the internet is full of trolls
The way they handled the migration was not the greatest imo. However one thing that still bothers me is how they handled the vanilla cape. Ive been playing minecraft since 2010, purchased july 2011, and redeemed my free windows 10 code back in 2015. However, all these years later when i wanted to migrate my account, I use a different microsoft account as my main so i migrated to that one. No big deal but then after all that had been said and done they tell us about the vanilla cape which i didnt get because i redeemed my windows 10 code, which may i remind you was given to me for free by mojang themselves, on a different account. I guess they didnt track or keep the logs of accounts that got the codes but you would think that those accounts would have fit the criteria immediately.
Are you sure you don't have the cape? You have to enable it in the launcher in the skin settings. Just add another skin and enable the cape.
Same thing happened to me and I was pretty unhappy I didn't get the cape
@@PureLove_X yeah i've checked many times. its not there sadly. on the website or in launcher. i also contacted support and they basically said im out of luck
Interesting, that's what I did as well, and I didn't get the cape lol

Hytale might be able to capitalize off of Microsoft killing Minecraft with their "safety updates"
Hytale is myth at this point
it is just sad to wach the downfall of this former masterpice of a game.
Mojang in general has ALWAYS had some really bad way of handling their services, accounts and customer service quality.
Their systems have, and it seems to an extent, will always be really buggy, a tangled mess and just unworkable. If you SOMEHOW after one million confusing pages of information get to contact their shitty reply bots and or even manage to get a person to answer, it is mostly just a dead end.
So a suggestion to the viewer: PLEASE keep a good track of your emails and passwords that you're using with them. Fuck up once and you WONT be seeing your account ever again.
All those people who had to buy Minecraft again or left the game entirely, only because the old emails aren't available so they can't migrate...
If only Mojang wasn't pissy about it. Support didn't help me at all because I didn't provide "not enough information".
The solution is alternative Yggdrasil server for authentication. Why fuss with Mojang's forced migration? Why worry about your username? If you're alright playing with a select group of friends and hosting your own server, you can have full control over your own username, skin, etc. There are examples of this software online but it needs more development to mature as a solution, but it's clearly the only path left to people who refuse and are not legally obligated to accept a Microsoft account to access what they paid for. Alternative servers, and a mod that allows you to log into said alternative will alleviate the tension and for Alpha customers it's all supported by the Mojang terms of sale.
This is crazy. Crazy that anyone still supports mojang.
Minecraft is falling apart in some areas, i just hope someone who knows what they are doing fixes things before it's too late
Migration was the worst decision microsoft ever made. I lost my account because of that bullshit when I lost access to the email address linked to it (forgot the password, but its backup was linked to a phone number that no longer exists). Now I have the choice to either buy the game AGAIN after it's become even more expensive, or pirate and just not play official multiplayer. Not to mention all the unique or idle accounts we lost because of it. All those people who bought the game but never heard about the migration before it was too late... a moment of silence for their wallets.
But seriously, when are we going to get open source minecraft? At this point, it might as well be.
As a consolation, people are working on alternative authentication API. We can route around the cancer that Microsoft and Mojang have injected into the game and community. Remember, if your sales contract with Mojang allows you to modify the game, you have a means to use what you paid for. This will at least hold true for the older versions of the game, and maybe current with some work.
The waiving all rights to sue never works in court. No one will not use something because of some random clause that says that you can't sue them. It'd be taking advantage of consumers.
It really feels like all sucessfull comapnies play this little games with each other on who can piss off most of their consumers.
Another issue that you glossed over is account theft. Which is actually um... A BIG ISSUE! Because these accounts are being STOLEN!!! thank you MisteEpic for this information. But with the massive amount of these accounts being stolen (in some horrific ways plenty of cases. Like impersonation and contacting Microsoft. Which has happened!!) This issue was heavily glossed over. Like wtf.
As for the legal issue. Absolutely legal. Especially in cases of stolen accounts. Which these name accounts are very commonly are.
Microsoft accounts aren't harder to steal in any way, it's the fact you need to migrate that has been abused the last 2 times
@@My_Old_YT_Account That was one of the claims that Microsoft/Mojang made about reasons for migrating, by claiming they are more secure.
When I bought the game, Mojang claimed that it would provide server authentication as long as it existed as a company to do so. A performative claim that they have broken. I'm all for more secure accounts, but that's Mojang's direct responsibility.
Sick, I lost my account when I took a year break. Thanks a lot minecraft, now if i even wanted to play again I'd have to buy it again. Disgusting behavior. How is it even legal for them to say I have to buy the game again.
Same here wtf
my account is just gone and i had miencraft for decades... That this shit is legal is crazy
Anyone else sure missing Notch?

It would be cool if the community joined up make one mod or something. One that's made by the community and for the community, not money. Maybe that would remake the new updates into it, make it's own updates that are inspired by majorities or something.
Went to log in to Minecraft for the first time in 2 years today and couldn't because I missed the migration window. I created my account back during the original alpha and paid for it on release. As much as I want to play it again, I'm not going to pay for it again. Cya Mojang.
Notch made a mistake by selling his magnum opus.
I already migrated my account, but then my microsoft account got hacked in some major data leak with a few thousand others.
👍 Money well spent, 10/10
I just got Minecraft and I am on mobile I’m so confused abt this migrates stuff going on rn can you help me out if my account is going to be deleted ???
@@eli4577nah you’re good, this is only for og java players to worry about
Not even surprised. With new Mojang migration a lot of my accounts has been locked.
turbo the users to fresh accs or caped accs
mojang really be ruining their game 💀
I imagine they do this because it messed up their system or it create bugs that is unnecessary to be fixed since most player have normal username
Wooo! This is the earliest I’ve ever been! Also, I’m pretty sure that it’s not legal for the pre 2015 accounts to get deleted, since the ToS didn’t have that note in it.
This games downfall started for me ever since the chat report update
I personally think this is illegal. Lets say someone made an account in 2012 and stopped playing in 2013, they never agreed to the new EULA meaning they can easily do something legally. (Im not a lawyer but this is my own opinion)
You could be an alpha customer from 2010, with a contract that has no revision clause and you could have continued to play the game up until they killed the authentication servers (Mojang breach of contract) and now they want to delete accounts without citing a legitimate cause of action as based on the original terms of sale. It's illegal.
I started in alpha and played until horses were added and quit. Thanks for letting me know I'll migrate my account
7:00 What about "law doesn't work backwards?" in that a change to a law or a contract can't legally bind you before the change was made.
for anyone wondering the song:
It's called Beton - C418 in the Excursions album :')
Oh man How I hate microsoft
Everything started going downhill after chat reporting…
Thats Wild.
If anyone here has an account created pre 2015 please do not migrate it. If we have enough people with an account that was deleted illegally by microsoft we might just might have a small chance of saving this game.
Please explain how that would save the game? Even if they get succsesfully sued, all that would mean is that those people get an account whit that name for free and thats it. Nothing else would chanche, bc why would it?
I'm an owner from 2010. My opinion is put all that energy and money you'd pay a lawyer instead into supporting development for alternative authentication. Mojang used something called Yggdrasil server for their authentication and skin support. Individuals have already coded examples of alternative authentication support for Minecraft but the software requires some more development to fully mature. With it, you will be able to authenticate your clients by pointing to alternative servers. Now all the pre-migration versions of the game and mods can be played and you don't have to worry about interacting with Microsoft or Mojang. For alpha customers this is entirely within the letter of the terms of sale.
why would you let an 8+ year old account get deleted to prove a point? just migrate ur account its not hard
@@reeseon10 Because there is a point to having a contractual agreement and being able to rely on it.
>its not hard
That opinion appears to be at odds with the numerous claims of difficulty with the process.
im pretty sure they've already put something in the EULA that they can do whatever they want with the accounts present on their services.
So… they own your account…
@@wilh3lmmusic yes, just like almost all digital based companies, facebook twitter epic games steam etc. Basically any media or entertainment based company has the right to strip you of your account for just about any reason, I had a name on Roblox for years since probably 2012 and I never had a problem with it, then all of a sudden a year ago they sent me an email saying they deleted my account because my name violated their terms of service, so essentially they didn't give me an option to change my name, they just all of a sudden decided my name wasn't okay anymore after almost ten years and then deleted it
yeah, the issue is that you legally need to re-agree on terms if they are changed, and if you never agreed to a new eula with that statement then that doesn't apply
@@weigurde but they usually put "by using our services you agree to the terms of agreement" or some shit like that.
@@astroturf5549 yeah, and not only are those legally dubious in many jurisdictions, they also need to be there to apply and also need you to use their services. also consider that statement wasn't there for a while
To sum it up:migrate or get deleted.
That's true! :)
I'm willing to bet that most of the people behind this purge are "new" to the company and therefore have no involvement or history with these names. Hell, all the nonsense Bedrock users have been getting is probably because of these same people (most likely from microsoft) having no connection to its users. Seems like all these companies are on the same "we don't care about our fanbase" boat.
I don't even like Bedrock, hell I downright hate it, not a fan of its fanbase for separate reasons to. But this is all just silly and I genuinely feel bad for Bedrock users getting shafted in some way constantly.
All these company legal agreements have gotten way too permissive on the corporate end and way too oppressive on the consumer end. Us consumers really have got to get more rights because this continuing to be unchecked will basically allow companies to control people. This is just abusive to consumers.
I made a video about this today too! To borrow a line from your video “this is an insane situation”.
I sometimes like to use the old launcher, which requires a Mojang account, and it's a shame that's all going away.
i honestly dont know what the mojang was thinking, as well as the current situation as well which involves more strict terms of service like no guns, at first thats like "hey thats pretty good" but no, think of all the servers that has even a single gun. mojang needs to be stopped
Some of og accounts have problems with migrating and will be deleted sadly 😢😢😢 mojang and microsoft stop killing the game please
I'm literally so glad I managed to use my old 9 year old email a few months ago to finally actually use my account. I've been unable to do stuff like change my skin for years because I forgot the security questions and my email wouldn't work.
Its 100% not legal because you paid for the game and got the licences and they have no right to remove it unless it bothers the terms of service.
If only someone did a class action lawsuit for this. You think oh it's only 30-40 dollars lost but keep in mind 1000s of people lost their accounts. I lost two. In Canada that's worth 80 dollars.
Do you think Mojang will delete all unmigrated accounts all at once or will it take maybe a month or so to have them deleted one by one? Are we going to have another username purge like what happened to demo accounts in 2015?
No need to risk it. Better safe than sorry
I had a break from minecraft for like a year and decided to come back, installed the launcher again.... and I need to buy java to play it... I didn't even know anything about the migration being time limited, like WHY IN THE FUCK I TRIED IT ONCE BUT IT WAS SO FRICKING HARD AND ANNOYING SO I GAVE UP and now I am back and that's just bullshit man
As an Xbox Player, Ive been playing with an illegal name for a very long time. That spacebar goes crazy
They should just do what discord did and have a unique number id for a user name so multiple people can use it.
This comment aged well

Damn gg bro
Mojang removed funny named accounts becouse of commands. You can't type brackets in commands as a player name, so it could cause a lot of errors
I had one of the font accounts for quite a few years, nearly didn't sell it (glad I did) now mojang griefed it lol and its worthless. Kinda weird seeing em flash up in the video. A shame for sure but tbh I atleast understand why they get rid of dupes.
There is no justification to this. The accounts have different IDs. Microsoft Whore should restore them immediately.

I have a question is migration for bedrock edition going to be scheduled later after the Java edition migration, or is the full official edition for all additions of Minecraft on December 18Th
The deadline is only 4 days away!
The fact that MINECRAFT (Microsoft)will delete lot of old account with ton of memory
I don't think it's illegal, the ethics involved be argued but using the oldest snapshot from the wayback machine, the terms of use explicitly state the following:
"We reserve the right to change this agreement at any time with or without notice, with immediate and/or retroactive effect." from September 23, 2011 with it being unchanged during its official release date (November 20, 2011 being the snapshot closest to November 18, 2011).
Whether or not this has always been the case through 2015 I do not know but Mojang (actually, Microsoft, let's be real for a second) wouldn't do this willy nilly and likely already has arguments to counter any lawsuit
Pre 2011 is cut and dry. Everything after gets trickier.
The only problem is what if the email account linked to your legacy Minecraft account has been deleted like if you used your school email address and your school deleted that email account after you graduated.
and why are you using a school email for games?
@@mach16yes
I luckily never did that but it’s still very possible that parents would have gotten their kids to use their school email addresses for their Minecraft accounts back then.
i watched your video about migration deleting account thing like a year ago and very sad but now everyone quit anyways lol

You should make a video on the fact that many people on playstation have an error when trying to sign in, meaning that they cannot play online and realms. And that this error has been prevelent for over 3 years

Then they go "Alright time to move everyone" (You will be relocated to a place where we can better monitor your activities and execute you at our discretion)
You're going to Auschwitz, in minecraft.
so since the un migrated accounts will be deleted, doesnt this mean that thousands of OG names will become available?
That's correct! :)
Question: what if you already have a Microsoft account? Because I didn't have a Mojang account and I made a Microsoft account immediately before the whole migration thing came. Then, when 2020 hit, it said I should migrate to my account. I went to the Minecraft page and I couldn't migrate, because I already had a Microsoft account. The only minus I've gotten from that is that I don't have a migration cape now, but now with this News idk if I'll be fine. I'll have to look into that more ig
It shouldn't affect you. Simply put, if you have a Microsoft account attached to your Minecraft account, you're safe. It sounds like you joined after they began the migration process, and never even had a Mojang account.
Migrating your account just means you linked it to a microsoft account; if you've got a microsoft account already you're chill
@@CrinMoss i bought Minecraft bedrock from the store way back, and now that they integrated both versions into one version, will i be safe?
@@droftrop4135 I did the same thing (buying it off the store) and I think that if you’re connected to a Microsoft account you should be fine
anything that deters account selling is a good thing imo
over a year ago i migrated my account and after doing it, it said i have demo and no guides or videos how to fix this helped. I just lost that account
Never migrated mine 🤷♀️ not even to mojang account
I cant link my account to Microsoft bc I did it once and they released a update and it unlinked my account and it wont let me link it again it says i already signed in but im not so I can’t do anything about it
if you want to ban a dupe account on your server but only one of them but since there are the same username both of them will be banned
Question if i bought minecraft in October and didnt got a chance to migrate my account can i still play or not?
time to play Minetest
i used to have an old microsoft account named 'BedFlippedMC' and it had been deleted my Mojang even tho i migrated
it's really annoying.
Hello, what can I do? It seems that I migrate it in time but now the account says me I have to buy it again. I got the premium game of course, just I didn't played regularly but just once in a while when I have time. I don't know what to do. I try to contact suppport but as when I buy it I was minor I have it with my parents mail... And I don't remember the codes and data from that time 😢😢
I got my account gone after i play the minecraft they slowly killing it and i hate the fact that it has money to install it i now the game is worth buying but like why that expensive
Does this include bedrock or pocketedition
So does that mean a bunch of og names will be avIlable when the accounts get deleted
Guys, I've just noticed that Bird nickname was taken by someone a few days ago
Microsoft be wanting more minecraft sales
REALLY???!?!
i have a feeling they arent removed, they have been given "the opportunity to choose a new username" or some generic string of characters, with no normal restriction that prevents you from changing it in under a month
yes, it is illegal because you payed for known account there for illegal It's like buying a toy its yours no one can legally take it without you selling it
they doing this and they can’t fix how i can’t sign in to my account in my pa5😭😭
PLEASE SHADER NAME
Damn after Migrating your account.. No Migration Cape.. Man!! That really sucks!!!
