Wait, is Unity allowed to just change its fee structure like that? | Confusing, contradictory terms of service clauses leave potential opening for lawsuits.::Confusing, contradictory terms of service clauses leave potential opening for lawsuits.

"Proprietary Software A is evil. I'm switching to Proprietary software B. I'm sure they won't eventually fuck me over for money"

Maybe check out an actual FOSS product like Godot

Godot is great, and in 5 years it could be Blender level of capable, but today it's not at the level that Unity and UE are. and Op is a working professional apparently so they probably need that capability.

It would be a shame if OP were out of a job because he is waiting for Godot.

Wow, what a long and meta meme it would be if the engine is simply created to never be ready on purpose, hence waiting for Godot.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Godot was created by its devs for internal projects and there was a sizeable gap between the time they announced that it would be open-sourced and made available to the public and the time they actually did it. Godot 4 also took a lot longer to release than anyone expected.

Godot devs are used to waiting.
