Honestly the most credible theory I can come up with for why Unity is doing this is that it’s an attempt to force MS to acquire them to stop the effect this BS will have on gamepass and C#
Thats still a really stupid plan. If they want to be bought off you’d assume they’d want to sell out at the best possible price. This measure is going to make their valuation sink so hard that they could be bought out for peanuts.
That sounds like a good deal for whoever ends up buying unity
Microsoft isn’t in a position to acquire any other significant gaming companies in the near term, imo.
Yeah, Microsoft isn’t going to blow up its shaky, but actual money maker Activision deal for a loser like Unity.
That’s actually an interesting theory, I don’t believe it, but would be cool. Feel like Microsoft would have enough backing too off against Epic.
Though, they are funding o3de right now.
