@mode13h @akien @Emi I think the issue is distrust. Someone brought up that the installation fee is really per "installation", not per "purchase", so if I buy a game, then reinstall it three 3, I just cost the developer 60 cents. This could be used for malicious intents (there's people out there). Furthermore, someone raised the flag that this sounds like Unity is implementing spyware in games without developer's consent (or end-users). 7 comments
@TheMarshmallowBear @akien @Emi I just think there's a lot of confusion at the moment. :) @mode13h @TheMarshmallowBear @akien @Emi How do they “count the purchase” of a DRM-free game bought on GOG without getting numbers directly from GOG? How do they differentiate a game bought in a Humble Bundle (that they claimed to not include)? How do they count installs for a WebGL game? How do they count installs for a Gamespass game? @mode13h In any case, I hope this will help Godot, but also that there won't be many people surprised by Godot's current state or way of doing thing because they didn't look into it too deeply before switching. |

@TheMarshmallowBear @akien @Emi Unity has clarified this point, only single purchase are counted (multiple installs of the same don't sum up).
Spyware? It they would be using some kind of DRM it would be only reasonable. We are all protesting about it (i.e. DRM) since... ever! :D
