We're buying a PC as a graduation gift and the one game I've been told to be sure it will play well is Minecraft. Seemed like a straightforward request, but the neighbor helping us said that there are two versions of Minecraft that can be played on a PC but that the 'seeds' and other game modifications wouldn't be compatible with each other. His son plays the "non-Windows 10" version.
After some searching it seems like he is right - there's 2 versions (that would work on a PC) and they aren't compatible with each other even though they both run on Windows 10 (which seems really strange).
Am I missing something? Will one of these versions be obsolete and he'll be stuck with it? There's a lot of information for what I thought was as simple game!
