As much as I hate Notch's style of marketing, I agree with him. The reason MC is big is because of NOTCH, not a Youtube channel.

What do you mean "his style of marketing"?

Making you pay for the game to "test" it.

TotalBiscuit:

"They are certainly the biggest driving force behind Minecr­aft at present, you only need to look at the view count. After Seananners stopped doing Min­ecraft content, Yogscast became a massive source of free promotion for the game. Their videos hit the frontpage of Youtube every day, showing Mine­craft off on the second largest search engine in the world time after time. I'm not sure Notch fully grasps just how much that many views on Youtube can do for your product. To give another example, the Magicka developers told me that they attribute the majority of their sales to WTF is Magicka and The Yogscast and TotalBiscuit play Magicka. This would make sense, if you look at the views on those videos, they are massive. For an indie company, Youtube and word of mouth are the two biggest forms of free marketing available and guess what generates word of mouth? Well how about literally over a million people watching and talking about Yogscast Min­ecraft videos? If anything, Notch does actually sound a little ungrateful here which is a rather flabbergasting attitude from an indie dev and one I've never seen before (those who don't know, my main source of income is my WTF is series which hilights indie games, it's fairly well viewed and I've had nothing but gratitude from devs whose games I've promoted). I suppose when you get as big and as wealthy as Notch, the attitude can change."

I think Notch is trolling.

1. When the yogscast were at minecon, most of the things they done were nice and polite.

2. When notch asked in the interview what would they do if they were him, they said "troll people on twitter and go on a vacation". Notch said he was taking a break by playing skyrim.

Planned?

If TB is also in on it, maybe so. He's stated Simon and Lewis gave their side of the story to him.

so if i randomly made a scam website for a game i (somehow) made, i would get very rich and popular despite the fact that no one knows it exists, because no one has done any coverage on it?
