They switched their backend and you might need to clear your DNS cache in order for it to resolve properly

Ventoy is awesome, +1

I wish I could write it out because it’s such a great laugh but it doesn’t translate well to text

Hasan laugh intensifies

No no, they have proprietary methods of aggregating install data so they will know.

Depending on how long the backlash can stick around, I would expect to see it go down with a large exodus. In particular, if Microsoft gets upset about the impact it could have to gamepass. Unity does seem to be backtracking, but it really feels like they overextended on purpose to make the actual result feel less shitty

Yeah, I did read it. Doesn’t mean he didn’t know that there would be backlash

You think they just suddenly came up with this model? No shit they have to jump through hoops. That doesn’t stop them from doing it in advance of something like this

So he sells a bunch of shares right before the announcement that is likely going to tank their stock price

If we could only use some sort of… identifier to know when a game has been installed… like some kind of… serial number or key that is unique per copy…

The original announcement stated it was retroactive

Just be rich and pay the extra yearly fee so you don’t gotta pay as much per install. Duh

I genuinely thought it was The Onion at first. Reality is really gunning for their niche market

Not only is it per install, it is also retroactive.

It’s also ridiculous. They already have their deals in place for successful games made with their engine. Why they don’t simply increase the royalty fee instead is beyond me.

It’s so much fun! You get the ultimate prize when you finally make it land on top

What a dumb fucking thing to post. I hope you feel like a moron

I was just coming to post this! Thanks, cops!

fucking lul

Have never had a popup ad like this. Maybe because I have all of that stuff turned off?

Seems like an oddly specific reason to run Linux on your personal machines tho.

There are tons of other issues that are far more relevant and affect more users than simple windows store popup ads that most people don’t seem to get.

I find it to be in poor taste. It has been 22 years, and we still don’t see them year-round yet. How has it taken so long.
