Rust creator on Mojang sale: 'I'd have done the same thing'

Rust and Garry's Mod creator Garry Newman has some thoughts regarding the recent purchase of Mojang by Microsoft to the tune of $2.5 billion. Specifically, Newman gives some insight as to reasons why he views the sale as a positive thing.

"Once you start hiring people your whole attitude changes. You're not just fucking about with your life anymore, you're fucking about with other people's lives – and the lives of their families. You can't just sell out and fuck everyone over," Newman wrote on his blog. "I am sure more than the top guys at Mojang became very financially rich due to this deal and that's something that should be admired – not seen as a bad thing."

"Long story short. I'd have done the same thing," Newman wrote. Hear that, Microsoft? The game about naked men with rocks who become clothed men with guns could be yours for the low, low price of another $2.5 billion.
