Anybody with half a brain and a bit of criticism would point out that you shouldn't believe everything you read.
Contrary to popular belief, Zenimax Media (or Bethesda to many Notch-philes) owns a lot of companies, and runs a very tight ship. Far tighter than Notch for example.
So go ahead and read this article.

No, Minecraft lover. That article is based in factual observation, not biased opinion or complete rubbish pulled from the air. This is nothing to do with the ownership of the word 'Scrolls' or competition in the market. If you had taken the time to see behind Notch's fluffy exterior you'd see the potential massive shit this takes all over Zenimax.
I find that far more worrying than 'OMFG BETHESDA IS TAKING DOWN THE MAN'. Let's not forget Tim Langdell here;

A 'nice guy' who turned out to be a complete power freak and a sue-happy prick that got in the way of some pretty good games.
So let me sum up. Minecraft is great, The Elder Scrolls are great games. However, a developer is a developer and business is business. This isn't 'lawyers being lawyers' and if you're blind enough to believe that, I'm hugely concerned about your impact on the games industry you flock of sheep.
