Interesting comments. People pointing out the unity ceo sold a large number of shares before the announcement

If you buy a game on steam can the developer delete it?

Yes happens all the time, but you can still play it (as long as it's not online only etc.)

And if you do, does the unity pricing change now cause an install cost?

codyvقبل 3 سنوات

Yes, but it will still stay in your library so you can download/reinstall it.

mucle6قبل 3 سنوات

Wow! So with this new unity pricing, even if you delete the game the developer can get charged

As much as I don't like the new Unity policy I think this is actually covered by the "No, in this case the developer is not distributing it so we’re not going to invoice the developer" FAQ answer given in response to a question about what happens if your game is install distributed through a subscription service like Xbox Game Pass. For a developer it might be worth getting that exact question answered in writing though.

It happened to Rocket League

You can still play the Steam version of Rocket League though. I know someone who still actively plays it.

I do too, the weird thing I just realized is I get updates still too

I guess they can delete the steam store page, so you can't redownload it I guess? I assume it wouldn't remove anything already on your computer.

Yes

According to reddit, this is a joke/shitpost.

I don't understand the humor of such a post, especially when such a course of action is currently in the cards for some developers.

They are doing it to mock the devs that want to take a stand against Unity

I would be surprised if anyone is even held accountable and it will just be the cherry on the top.

I was contemplating buying this game despite the sophomoric humor, but seeing the developer openly mock other developers who might be financially devastated by the Unity policy makes me not want to buy anything from them ever.
