Is Minecraft heading in the right way?

Microsoft is going to kill off updates to the original minecraft.
Eventually you won't be able to even purchase accounts for the "java eddition".

What was extremely telling is how microsoft answered the 10 year old kid who sent a letter to microsoft begging them not to ruin minecraft.
Even after reassuring the press they would not do so they still went ahead and deliberately left minecraft "java eddition" behind from the cross platform.
