    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.
