This is the second time they’ve said they won’t force you into new terms, why is this time any different to think they won’t try more again in future?

I think game developers have every right to continue to be concerned given how this all unfolded.

@gamingonlinux It seems like someone missed the point entirely 😂
Don't know who he is, but he doesn't sound very smart tbh.

@gamingonlinux A lot of takes like this are so weird to read. "Wow they nailed it, they're now only gonna fart in our mouths instead of shitting, incredible -- anyone who lives in fear of any other outcome is unreasonable and a cult"

Why is it unreasonable to be upset at end-all corporate greed jeopardizing the livelihood of people, and realizing that this is a trend and that shit won't just fix itself by hoping really hard?

Are boot soles _that_ delicious?

@gamingonlinux Serial engine switcher George Broussard doesn't understand devs that confirm their plans to switch engines. Huh.

@gamingonlinux
No where in the statement from Unity is any pledge, promise, declaration, or even suggestion that they won't completely change the rules again after three more days' consideration.

"I have altered the deal. Pray that I do not alter it further."

@gamingonlinux yeah, the engine that is pushed heavily in schools and academia is making anti-consumer moves (no surprise there). Hailing Unity's temporarily backtrack as a win is pure ignorance. Adobe did the same moves, Autodesk made them as well. Didn't turn out well for either market.
But sure only "people who won't use the engine" will "complain".
Being vocal against overreach is not complaining.

@gamingonlinux "self report" absolutely means their lawyers will be breathing down your neck the moment they smell money.

@gamingonlinux I think does not fix untiy money leaking problem for a profit with shareholders, that must be stressing him get more money on there investment, but the damage is done, may see more and more devs just not use untiy anymore, for any future projects.

@gamingonlinux I bet he is the kind of person that considers the word "Scab" to be a slur

@gamingonlinux I'm still going to complain, because Unity still is scummy and really hasn't walked back the bigger problem. It's still there and waiting to get you when you look away for a second.

@gamingonlinux The fact that there is zero change in leadership shows they’ve learned nothing.

Same chemicals in, why would anyone expect a different reaction down the line?

They’ll absolutely try this again, but much slower going forward.

@gamingonlinux To be completely fair, "those who don't use the engine" is about to be a much larger group, so there may be some truth there.

@gamingonlinux I see the blue checkmarks are at it again

@gamingonlinux tbh what are we expecting from someone shelling out money to X?

@gamingonlinux this sure is a huge relief for devs whose games are releasing very soon. Switching engines this late would not only massively delay the release but also cause financial loss.

But I doubt they will continue using unity for new projects. The trust is irrevocably broken now.

@gamingonlinux lol. I still boycott Xbox after Microsoft tried to add drm on the hardware. So I say it's fine to continue to be angry at Unity

@gamingonlinux He has a checkmark, what did you expect? Lol

"We won't force you into new terms! These are the old terms, we just changed them a little" - Unity, Probably

@gamingonlinux i don't understand a single word of what he is saying but he needs a brick falling on his head.
