Garry Newman: The new Unity pricing would have cost him $410,000 of lifetime revenue (i.vgy.me)

This is of course not including the yearly Unity subscription, where Unity Pro costs $2,040 per seat (although they may have Enterprise pricing)

Absolutely ridiculous. Many Unity devs are saying they're switching engines on social media.

t. God’s most pedantic redditor

If you knew I was talking about oracle and just wanted to make a point that oracle wasn’t the only one that licensed the JDK first of all, why not just say that, and what the hell does it have to do with my comment?

No one cares about your Java dev experience, this post wasn’t about Java, or OpenJDK, you just wanted to be a dick, and that makes you a dork

This is the java business model, there’s two ways it could go: total flop, everyone hates it and because video games aren’t as deeply entrenched as legacy codethe java business model won’t work. OR the Java business model works great and there’s now a 10% unity tax passed on to the consumers

Edit lmao the most pedantic Mfs alive in the replies

This you?

this post wasn’t about Java

This also you?

You are clearly insane. Good bye.

Yes mr pedant, you made your point that other companies license a JDK, but you should have done so directly without being an idiot

No, I made my point that you simply don't know what you're talking about. If you wish to keep trying to act like I'm the asshole for pointing out your clear misunderstandings (as numerous other people did in the thread) while you try to lash out instead of saying "Oh crap, I misunderstood, thanks for helping me" or "No, I meant something else.", then by all means, please continue. I originally commented simply asking if you meant Oracle. You could have easily said "Yes." and moved on. But you didn't, instead relying on continued ad hominem attacks.

And your attempt to discredit me by calling me a pedant only reinforces everything I have typed.

We're done now. You're no longer worth my effort.
