So Unity can just change their pricing any time they want?

Lots of misconceptions and misinformation surrounding this issue in general.

It’s nowhere near as bad as anyone thinks. The key piece of missing information is that it’s self reported. If we were to update to a version that required this (which we aren’t) then we would tell Unity how many new users we get each period and pay that much. There are also alternative payment options that you can do if you want. You can even report each category and Unity will just do the math and charge you the lowest version.

Was it scary and disappointing? Yes. Is it really that bad? No.

I’m going to close this thread here.
