     @Giganova8 unity has had weird licensing terms for a while now anyway
     its more for devs who dont want to put in manual effort of making the components
     
     but interfacing with unity's api is awful anyway and I am biased on that point

     Ah, so there's the Microsoft move. I was wondering when Unity was gonna stick the knife in and try some faggot shit like this. Wonder if they're gonna do the marginally smart thing and only apply this moving forward, or if they're gonna try and nail every Unity game ever released, including the freebies. :thonk:

     What do you think of epic's UE5 personal license? I'm expecting them to add something like this sooner than later but I hope they don't. Unity has been struggling to stay profitable, so this is probably just a way to reduce operating expenses without downsizing.
