Interesting to see how this pans out.

Minecraft really isn't a game where microtransactions work, at least on the ethical stuff. It's a game about creativity and sharing, which means a lot of people won't be bothered with mtx.

The elephant in the room is that there's a giant ecosystem of paid server nonsense, most of which is basically pay-to-win and gambling for school kids, which Microsoft and Mojang somehow approve. They just think it's unfair they don't get a cut, hence the push for Bedrock marketplace and servers. Thing is, if Microsoft really starts seriously sticking their fingers into that pie, I really hope the regulators start waking up.
