I DIDN’T Migrate my Minecraft Account - Here’s What Happened
youtu.be
What happens if you don't migrate your Minecraft account? The goal of this video is to document exactly what happens if you don't. Maybe I could get it back?...

I’ve just watched the video. I find it pretty outrageous. The word about it should spread.

    As a fun aside, unauthorized sharing is the only reason I tried and bought the game back in early beta days before there was a demo (friend A owned, friend B didn’t, I tried it from friend B’s unauthorized copy of friend A’s game and got the copy too, later gave friend A $20 and info to activate my account because I didn’t have internet at home).

      Same. I played MC in early Alpha when you could play free in a web browser. And then I used a cracked game for another year or so. Once I had adult money I bought it. I’ve since bought it probably 6+ times over between Java, Bedrock, consoles, mobile and accounts for my kids.

      I probably would never have bought it otherwise, or at least not for a long time.

      Pirated Minecraft was a staple of my childhood. Basically everyone I know had it pirated too. I thought that, when I am an adult with my own money and my own debit card, I would buy the game since I liked it so much. Well, I guess that isn’t happening.
