So, when I start minecraft the option to "play" doesn't even exist. All I have is "Play Offline". I've tried disconnecting from the internet, shutting down my computer and restarting minecraft. I don't know what to do!
When I run minecraft offline, it doesn't let me play on any multiplayer servers, which i would expect. But I tried anyway, and when I did it popped up with the message something about authentication service being down for maintenance. I can't let you know exactly what it says because now minecraft won't even let me log on.
If you can offer any help, thank you! It's really stressing me out!
