Unity Technologies announced that after reaching 1 million registered developers just over a year ago, the community has now surpassed 2 million, cementing Unity as one of the largest and most active developer communities in the world.
Unity has shared a new tech demo that showcases what's possible in the latest version of the Unity 6 Engine, called Time Ghost.
You never see anything close to these tech demos in actual game releases. More fluff than anything.
How does it feel to not be in the sequel to your own franchise? Their virtue signal will cost them sales
I think Unity exposed themselves last year, and IMO any developer should just stay away from them completely.
Exactly my thoughts, they killed so much interest in their engine since doing that. Godot looks like it's rising to take it's place as the indie darling game engine.
In its current pace, Godot would need decades to reach Unity's current state. Almost no studios use it. For hobbyists, it's a valid option, though.
Gotta be real about it: Unity was and will continue as the market leader for small studios. There's no competition in this sense.
The thing is: there's nothing even remotely as good as Unity for small studios game development, even if you consider the company's disgraced trust.
So, sure, it's your opinion, but most professionals have not and will not leave Unity.
And Godot is a hobby project in comparison, not even an option.
The thing is: this is the kind of comment Unity was getting when it was up and coming.
I remember when I started learning Unity it was looked at with disregard, this is where Godot is now, remember this, in a few years, Godot will get there.

I hope you realize how ridiculous your comments sounds when you suggest "Waiting for Godot" is an option.
It made me chuckle for a good 20 seconds.
@plmkoh
Haha I’m not suggesting to wait for it. I’m saying with all the updates (each one better than the previous one) Godot will get where it needs to, to be considered more than just a hobby engine.
In fact it can already do a lot, it’s all about how you approach the problem.
PlayCanvas, Babylon, Defold, Cocos Creator etc.
This generic statement of "it's not as great as Unity YET" could be applied to any other engine (no offense to these mentioned great engines).
The fact is: it is a hobby engine, almost no studio is using it. As much as I'd like to see Unity fall, it's not happening at all. There's simply no competitor.
Unity has announced that it's cancelling the controversial runtime fee, and going back to a seat-based subscription model for game developers.
I guess it bite them in the ass. Pretty sure it's still too late and those who were burned by it, will not come back.
Hmm.
They may just remain a company after all. They lost a lot of good faith with all this, however.
Jan 8 (Reuters) - Videogame software provider Unity Software (U.N) will target laying off approximately 25% of its workforce, or 1,800 jobs, the company said in a regulatory filing and internal company memo on Monday.
What a waste. And despite all of this cut and slash, their polices are doubling down on what led to all of this. They have committed themselves to bring a losing brand going forward. Good riddance. Maybe Microsoft will buy them out, they seem to have a lot in common.
No wonder, it's a fairly compelling and powerful package even without the pro features. Not to mention it's fairly beginner friendly while still fairly flexible for professional developers.
Sure it isn't answer to everything, but then again what is?
Unity is for weakr consoles lmao,no. All that and about 50 devs will or will not put shite out worth ur time lol. Unity was used on all wii shovelware lmfao
