He seems terrified.
Notice how the cops try to get him to accept a search of his car? That's them hoping they can find something to destroy this man's life. They have absolutely zero reason for the search. The issue is a busted break light. They should just ticket him for that instead of wasting time and resources on their antagonistic bullshit.
I think threats are perfectly fine when CEO's who are completely disconnected from reality destroy your livelihood so they can get a slightly larger bonus next quarter.
Installs, not downloads.
That's my understanding as well. You could have a game on Steam that you haven't even updated in years, and then you suddenly have to start paying for new installs from existing owners.
Actually, it's potentially even worse. You could have a game that you released and then later removed from every storefront, but if people keep installing it, Unity will demand payment.
How does your engine compare to MonoGame?
Still sucks if you've got a team that's really good at Unity, but yeah
Microsoft has Unity games. I can't imagine they're happy.

Hindsight is 20/20, but maybe devs should have seen this coming 😑
who will be allowed to go to mars? most likely only the rich.
Living on Mars would be miserable. If colonization ever happens, it'll be because there's money to be made, and it'll be poor people who are send to die in the Mars mines or whatever.
My hypothesis is that wealth causes brain damage.
Unity changed the license, so developers have to pay a fee for every install of games made with Unity. Notice that it's "install". Not "sale". Not "download".
They claim they won't count installs from demos, cracks, charity bundles, re-installs, etc, but absolutely no one trusts them at this point. Several devs have said they're switching engine, despite the large cost of that.
