Very funny how invested people are in this.
Well, I like playing video games and this will affect the video games I like playing.
I'm not a game developer, but if Unity got everyone to roll over with that TOS change I'm sure that devs would use this as a new justification to increase costs for games or higher subscription fees for services like Gamepass.
It's important to be invested and informed in the things that matter to you.
Yeah, but through like two to three layers of abstraction. I like beer, but I don't give a shit about the contractual details of malt distribution. Games are still gonna be made, this is just something for people to project their impotent rage at.
Well shit. Some people actually care about the people who produce whatever it is you consume. It's crazy, I know. If the people who are growing the malt for my beer, or processing it, or delivering it, or whatever... are getting screwed over I would be equally concerned. But by all means, continue to be a consumer pacman just gobbling up whatever it is that falls in front of your face. That's what the world is trying to mold you into anyway. Why fight it?
Oh please get over yourself. If you consume games you are already actively supporting the screwing over of people in like five different industries the world over. This price hike in one piece of software is just your "thing" to get righteously mad about this week.
You're cute. I like you.
