Today, in one of the first concrete examples of this, the developer of BallisticNG claims it has canceled its adaptation of the console moving On as a direct result of the situation with Unity.

Editor’s note: What should I tell them? Seems unfair to me, I think Unity should sit with the developers to resolve their rate plan, this is a good opportunity for them summary will release a “light” version of the Unreal Engine or something like that.
