Thread. Imagine a scenario where if the console makers agree to pay the new runtime fee to Unity, do you think they will absorb the fee, or pass the cost to the players by increasing the game price or charge a small sum of money for additional install?
There is no such thing as a free lunch so I doubt they would absorb the fee. They're more likely to increase the percentage cut payable by the publisher by some miniscule amount to reach $0.20 if they agree to it at all.Thread.

This.They already have. What do you think the PS plus raise was about?

We should all abandon the hobby and find some other coping mechanism. What about porn or alcohol abuse?Getting fucked by the sub price hikes weren't enough, let's do more!
Honestly I don't see why Sony/MS/NIntendo would agree to pay the fee. It would also set a terrible precedent for other engines to start doing the same.
But if they do, yeah it will be passed on to the consumer.

Sony just raised the price of ps+ by 20-30% out of nowhere with no changes in its subscription for the player. What do you think they'll do if this goes through?

Nah, just refrain from posting un amusing shite.
It wasn't amusing the first time you posted it.
And to be clear, it was you rather than Jim Ryan that the fuck off was aimed at.![]()
