Was Unity lying yesterday or are they lying today?
(lemmy.today)
Unity: We have to charge for every install because we only see totals. Also Unity: We can tell which install is which, so you won't be overcharged.
The whole thing seems rushed because the CEO of Unity, John Riccitiello, was the leading advocate of microtransactions when he was at EA, and now he is instilling the same culture at Unity.
How will they differentiate between pirated copies and legitimate copies? How will they distinguish first-time installs from repeat installs? Can we trust their algorithm? It just doesn't seem possible.
Unity: Everyone really seems to hate EA
Also Unity: Let's hire the CEO of EA
🤦
It may have been more like:
Unity: "We love money and hate our customers, who can we hire to realize that vision?"
EA CEO: "Finally, a job that understands me"
