quite literally those Indie spotlights quite literally those Indie spotlights are the highest rated and most liked are the highest rated and most liked are the highest rated and most liked videos on the entire Channel not the videos on the entire Channel not the videos on the entire Channel not the highest viewership just the best highest viewership just the best highest viewership just the best reception I love making them I often reception I love making them I often reception I love making them I often interview developers and in some rare interview developers and in some rare interview developers and in some rare cases we go on to become friends helping cases we go on to become friends helping cases we go on to become friends helping people discover amazing games from people discover amazing games from people discover amazing games from passionate creative people is genuinely passionate creative people is genuinely passionate creative people is genuinely one of the most satisfying experiences one of the most satisfying experiences one of the most satisfying experiences I've ever had on all of YouTube and yeah I've ever had on all of YouTube and yeah I've ever had on all of YouTube and yeah this part should be obvious but a lot of this part should be obvious but a lot of this part should be obvious but a lot of those games rely on the unity engine those games rely on the unity engine those games rely on the unity engine that right there makes me substantially that right there makes me substantially that right there makes me substantially purse personally invested sure the purse personally invested sure the purse personally invested sure the decision isn't actually likely to decision isn't actually likely to decision isn't actually likely to bankrupt ndpc developers that sentiment 
[2:10]
bankrupt ndpc developers that sentiment bankrupt ndpc developers that sentiment has been a little bit over exaggerated has been a little bit over exaggerated has been a little bit over exaggerated understandably so but it certainly hurts understandably so but it certainly hurts understandably so but it certainly hurts them massively betrays their trust and them massively betrays their trust and them massively betrays their trust and demonstrates executive greed at the demonstrates executive greed at the demonstrates executive greed at the highest level and of the highest order highest level and of the highest order highest level and of the highest order today I want to discuss that greed and today I want to discuss that greed and today I want to discuss that greed and weigh in on the discussion so here we go weigh in on the discussion so here we go weigh in on the discussion so here we go the actual terms of service changes can the actual terms of service changes can the actual terms of service changes can be summarized like this instead of a be summarized like this instead of a be summarized like this instead of a monthly subscription which they used monthly subscription which they used monthly subscription which they used prior to all this Unity will move to a prior to all this Unity will move to a prior to all this Unity will move to a hybrid payment model that charges based hybrid payment model that charges based hybrid payment model that charges based on every individual install of a game on every individual install of a game on every individual install of a game that's an odd Choice especially that's an odd Choice especially that's an odd Choice especially considering the fact that the prior considering the fact that the prior considering the fact that the prior system worked perfectly fine but it gets 
[2:41]
system worked perfectly fine but it gets system worked perfectly fine but it gets worse Unity will now be charging worse Unity will now be charging worse Unity will now be charging Developers for every installation Beyond Developers for every installation Beyond Developers for every installation Beyond a certain threshold that threshold being a certain threshold that threshold being a certain threshold that threshold being a product of whichever plan they pay for a product of whichever plan they pay for a product of whichever plan they pay for already but instead of focusing on the already but instead of focusing on the already but instead of focusing on the details of how much the cost per details of how much the cost per details of how much the cost per installation will be and what their installation will be and what their installation will be and what their subscription model looked like before subscription model looked like before subscription model looked like before all this I want to focus on the broader all this I want to focus on the broader all this I want to focus on the broader current picture these are unsavory current picture these are unsavory current picture these are unsavory changes to say the very least but Unity changes to say the very least but Unity changes to say the very least but Unity has also gone a step further with little has also gone a step further with little has also gone a step further with little more than a sort of ethereum real more than a sort of ethereum real more than a sort of ethereum real promise Unity has stated that their promise Unity has stated that their promise Unity has stated that their proprietary methods can detect whether proprietary methods can detect whether proprietary methods can detect whether or not a game has been pirated thus or not a game has been pirated thus or not a game has been pirated thus effectively demanding that developers
