I don't know if the following is true but:

if you've bought minecraft PE, you can download bedrock, right? (So a friend told me it's true)

how do i do this without paying again? XD

Depends on where you bought it. It's compatible with all of your phones in the Play Store. The Windows 10 Edition only with your PC - you have to buy it, because there are two different versions. Even if they are compatible.

OHH so if I bought minecraft PE in the play store, (for my mobile phone) I can't download it to my pc?

Po

Yes, you have. If you have an Android phone, you can log into Bluestacks or Nox with your Google Play account and download Minecraft for free.

Thank you! Bluestacks is completely safe anyway, isn't it? And can I then also play with pc and play like that?

Za

I agree. Then you have to buy it again as the Windows 10 edition from the Windows Store.

Po

Yes, Bluestacks is safe. In order to play games with Java players you need a server on which https://geysermc.org/ is installed.

Za

Incidentally, this is very difficult to play with Bluestacks

I don't know anything about such an offer.
If you bought Minecraft in the Google Play Store, you bought the Bedrock version, but stop at Google for your mobile phone / tablet.
You don't get the PC Bedrock version with it. To do this, you would have to buy it again from the Windows 10 Store.

The stores have nothing to do with each other. It's like playing it on PS4 and switching it to Xbox. The versions can play together, but the money for the PS4 version goes to Sony, so why should Microsoft give you this for free? (So parts of the money [I think it's called distribution costs])

The same applies in your case. Part of the money goes to Google and Microsoft wants something from the Windows 10 Store.

Sure there have been things like that, but these companies just signed contracts.

Za

No you can't. PC (Java) and W10+ Bedrock are developed in other programming languages and thus different games. Installing this on Bluestacks can't really be called the free version, as the controls are absolutely impractical.

zo

Yes, I personally find Bluestacks bad. Tried several times and it always went absolutely lousy.

Za

Yep - just like me.

se

Thank you!

pl

There are already a few servers on which it works. Is still in development.

Za

But that doesn't really count as proper teamwork

pl

Playing together

You play together.

Do I understand something wrong?

Za

But without being dependent on those bad servers.
