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

    Does this apply to software that was made before the terms change?

      • 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 … )
