The rub is, when you start making significant money, Unity should also make some money, I think there’s a fair deal in there.
The fact of the matter is that people using unity signed up under the conditions laid out. Unity altered the deal. Devs just prayed they wouldn’t alter it further.
Correct, the changes to the fee structure was completely foolish and eroded trust with their customers. In attempting to speak to a wide audience, I’m trying to provide as much context to my point. That being, Unity was, and is (after walking back the changes) a good deal for 90% of the user-base.
I agree though that because of their behavior, you shouldn’t risk building a business on their word, as it stands. To be fair, the EA dude is out and they’re working on finding someone else to lead, if there’s anyone else to lead after all the layoffs 😕
