This but unironically describes Unity's new pricing model.

Yeah this is from 2019? Seems pretty prescient

Things truly are dire when a 4Chan shitpost can be called prescient.

Something something ... 1 million chimps on typewriters ... something.

Nope. It's a common joke to show that a company doesn't actually lose money when a game is pirated.

It's simply a comment on how piracy =/= lost sales. Don't look too far into it.

Holy shit. I didn't look at the date until I saw your post. Anon is the new Nostradamus.

Does it apply to free to play games? If so that's stupid af

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

F2P games can still make money. Look: microtransactions. So this absolutely applies to them.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Ah yeah, sorry, wasn't thinking about dark pattern games.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

That effects free to play games that make money, also demos for games that make money...

For this green text to be properly updated, the first line needs to be changed to, "Purchase game on Steam."
