Whats the final outcome of Unity’s changes to their license. Also, do the changes apply to previously released games?

    • if you’re using Unity, you definitely want someone knowledgeable looking over all the terms and details (ie. I am not a lawyer)
    • from Sunday’s tweet, it seems they’re considering changes to their new pricing model in reaction to the blow back (“what? people got upset?”)
    • new pricing model doesn’t take effect until 1 Jan 2024
    • looks like they were planning on charging for any installs (for new and old games) from that point on
    • the changes to the TOS they sneaked through a few months back makes it look like they are trying to apply the new terms retroactively and replace whatever terms were in place when the game was developed – which sounds all sorts of shady (but then again, it’s an ex-EA CEO … )
