[Beerus]

This is insanity.

Well, them are two so much fish at them not even need care million others. Sad ...

I am guessing Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo sue unless they reverse it.

I’m a console peasant, but I wonder how long I can remain one, honestly.

They apologized and changed the policy.

They apologized and changed the policy.

Not really. The policy is still there, just modified a little bit. So, it's still "install" pay, but you share that revenue. Oh, that word swap. Oh fuck off, unity.

Yeah I know, I believed the initial lies. They just pushed everything back to 2024.

I had been following this very closely for a while now. They have done irreparable damage to their reputation and many devs are not switching back. They just can't trust Unity under its current leadership. Fuck'em.

Yup. It has only gotten worse. More and more people are swearing them off and some of the other companies saw a big boom of devs looking to use their software instead.

They are reaping what they sowed.
