Rust devs speak out on Unity fees: ‘They forgot about PC gaming. Again’
Unity’s sudden fee change ahead of 2024 is receiving strong backlash from developers. In a blog post, Rust staff wrote it was a breach of trust and the sequel wouldn’t be developed using that game engine.
In the post explicitly called “Unity can get fucked,” the developer wrote that Unity’s flat tax per user install wasn’t “feasible,” except for the mobile platform. “Maybe it is a good idea if you think of Unity as a mobile game engine. Maybe they forgot about PC gaming. Again,” the team wrote.
