Tathas, w Unity Has Apologized For Its Install Fee Policy and Says It 'Will Be Making Changes' to It - IGN

What confusion? I’d say it was a pretty clear policy.

GunnarRunnar,

It was kinda ambiguous how deep they were going to stick it up the devs' ass.

It seemed clear they were going “as far as it gets”.

ezures,

“Don’t worry, it’s just the tip” (currently, before they change the tos/price again)

I am wondering if they will silently reinstate the changed TOS repositories.

Does this include Valve? I imagine that Valve is a huge part of Unity's sales...

Does Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony know?

I really hope they try this.

Because it would be hilarious to see all the platforms say fuck it and ban Unity games over this ridiculous cash grab they're very obviously not entitled to.

Unity is so ubiquitous that it would have unimaginable consequences.
For example, 90% of vr games are made in Unity. So that's one segment of gaming completely wiped off the map.

Things are not much better in desktop and mobile gaming either, as Unity has close to 50% market share.
It would be a literal Thanos snap.

yeah the console manufacturers are just gonna say “no, we don’t owe you anything, we have never dealt with you before. Sue us”

I wonder what work Unity is living in. Must be nice to pretend you could get anyone to just pay whatever fee you make up.

Makes sense hosting could be standard 25% revenue share 45% if your game is based on unity

I've tried parsing this sentence 3 times and failed. Could someone help out and add/fix whatever words and punctuation are broken here?

Itsamelemmy,

Devs pay Sony Microsoft etc 25% of the price paid for the game. Unless it’s unity, then it’s 45%.

Makes sense; hosting someone else’s game could be a standard 25% revenue share, but then 45% if your game is based on Unity.

Thank you

WHYAREWEALLCAPS, w Unity Claims PlayStation, Xbox & Nintendo Will Pay Its New Runtime Fee On Behalf Of Devs

Jesus. This is just a circus of incompetence. Doesn't matter who is footing the bill. If you push the bill on the distributor/install service it means those streams will be less likely to embrace indie devs and especially new indie devs without a hit under their belt. So same chilling result.

Did they not learn from watching Sony delist Cyberpunk after CD Projekt Red told consumers that Sony would give them a refund?

Madison_rogue,
@Madison_rogue@kbin.social avatar

The answer seems to be no. I'm anticipating Sony, MS, and Nintendo's response on this. Did they even know about it? I'm very curious to see how this pans out because at this viewpoint it seems like an entire shit show.

SeeJayEmm, w Unity is offering a Runtime Fee waiver if you switch to LevelPlay as it tries to "kill AppLovin" - Mobilegamer.biz
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

Can someone ELI5 this for me? I’m up to speed on the runtime fee but the rest of the article was over my head.

Seems like unity owns an ad service provider and is now offering to waive this new fee if you use it instead of its more popular competitor.

The article implies that this is the entire reason behind the new fee, but seems like it’s just a guess.
