Especially when there's a lot of high profile clients who's business literally relies on them. They will absolutely have a ton of lawsuits coming towards them. Good, fuck them for thinking they could, or should, ever do this.
I'm sure if this actually pushes through they'll change the terms for those clients just to keep them happy (and paying what they do pay, which likely dwarfs all the smaller players). And they sure as shit won't fight for the smaller creators when they get theirs.
Well, that certainly smells like a class action suit.
My question is what sort of "support" does Unity provide to these legacy engines. If the old versions are unsupported, does that mean they will be hard or impossible to use, or does it simply mean they don't get feature updates?
