It's so... uh... dystopian to be hear the friendly Nintendo Direct announcer through the lens of the Unity debacle :P
We're making it guys, we are in the future we've been toying with in fiction.

when a company offers a "compromise", look at it like that's what they were implementing in the first place.
chances are, the company is trojan horsing its userbase - giving them a shit deal and then presenting them with a better one when the backlash starts to come in. The deal will be better, but NOT good. do not fall for this tactic

Developers of indie puzzle game Orgynizer have claimed that Unity said organisations like Planned Parenthood are "not valid charities" and are instead "political groups."
In a blog post, the EU-based developer LizardFactory said the plans to charge developers up to $0.20 per install if they reach certain thresholds would cost them "around 30% of the funds we have gathered and already sent to charity."
As Unity clarified the runtime fee will not apply to charity games, LizardFactory reached out to the company to clarify their game would be exempt from the plan.
However, Unity reportedly said their partners were not "valid charities" and were viewed as "political groups."
Profits made from the game go directly to non-profit organisation Planned Parenthood and C.S. Mott Children's Hospital, Michigan.
"We did this to raise money for a good cause, not to line the coffers of greedy scumbags," the developers wrote in a blog post. "We have been solid Unity fanboys for over ten years, but the trust is scattered all over the floor."
The developers are considering a move to open-source game engine Godot, "but we will have to recode our entire game because we refuse to give you a dime," they wrote. "This is a mafia-style shakedown, nothing more, nothing less."
Theres a video out there of a bunch of blank 3D models doing the coffin dance where the casket has the Unity logo on it and I can't find it
If anyone has this please share
Like idk, I can easily conceive of things more evil than what unity are doing, but it's a shithead move for sure!
