It's completely legitimate actually, and it happens more often than you think. |

I hope bethesda loses, If they win it will just severely delay minecraft. Plus no one says I'm gonna plays scroll 1-4 They say oblivion, arena,daggerfall or morrowind etc.... Besides it's not the devs that made this decision. At least I hope not I would assume it's the legal offices that work with bethesda. |

Bethesda Game Studios filed the suit(Their lawyers did), which means that Bethesda Softworks(The game makers) didn't do squat. |

Because they had to, you have to defend just about every potential case that pops up, otherwise you can lose your trademark. The only reason this is being blown out of proportion is because Notch thought it would be hilarious to tell everyone how mean Bethesda is on the internet. |
