The Word of Notch exhibits the Minecraft creator's typical bluntness and humor in offering an update on the
legal dust up between Mojang and Bethesda ver the Scrolls trademark
I’ve received some questions about what the status of the Bethesda lawsuit thing is. I don’t have much news, but I can try to summarize the recent events in a colorful way:
Lawyers have been sending papers back and forth, threatening each other with deadlines and court dates. “Why don’t we settle this in a mature way?”, one party asks the other. “Your MOTHER settles things in mature ways”, the other party cleverly retorts, “because of her age.”
Last thing I heard, we were a couple of weeks past a “super seriously, we will sue you for real this time” deadline, and letters are still being sent back and forth.

Cut it the fuck out, Bethesda. I won't be buying either for this reason. 2 games I was looking forward to that I will not be purchasing now, Skyrim and D3. I hope Rage and SWTOR will keep me entertained till the next round of "games I'm looking forward to".
