Wonder if the shareholders that sold their stock shortly before the announcement of the pricing changes have bought them all back already 🥰
A resounding "fuuuuuck yooouuu" from all quarters is due for this pathetic apology.
They've shown their hand. Damage done.
What's to keep someone from using a botnet to install tens or hundreds of thousands of installations?
"trust us bro"
Genshin is one of the biggest games using Unity right now, and I doubt Mihoyo would want to take that risk of suddenly having to pay millions of dollars for no reason.
Giving people an exception for using their ad service shows they're happy to apply the rules unequally. I expect a company that is a big litigation risk like mihiyo will be happily exempt from the runtime fee
It really is like they looked at what Wizards of the Coast did and said, “Hold my beer.”
No one is going to trust them after this.
Unity should be cast into the dust bin of history and obsolescence. Fuck off unity. The world is moving forward to a better future without you.
My trust in companies is shattered in a big way. I don’t believe they are sincere. Words are words. Back up and roll it back. I don’t believe a single word from that apology. It’s damage control. They have no spine and will say anything to achieve a desired outcome. They’re worse than politicians
Too little, too late!
If you really cared for feedback, you would have consulted game developers and your own employees on this scheme to hear it was a bad idea.
No matter what the revised plan is (besides a total reversal), the aim here is to do the switch part of a bait-and-switch, to change the rules on people who have invested their time and experience with Unity.
The vampire had his fangs to your neck, and you're gonna believe him when he goes "sorry, I will only feed on bloodbags from now on I swear"?
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
