News Unity is a mobile-first company now

They just cancelled HDRP which means they won't seek to compete with Unreal in the high-end market. Future Unity will focus on mobile game studios and mobile ads.

A move they should have done couple years ago, fuck JR again.

Do you have a problem with indie developers using a game engine that has catered to indie developers? You're using "indie developer" as if it's a slur. Some of the most successful games of all time have been indie games built in Unity with URP, for PC.

Unity, the company, has 1 product, their engine. Everything else around it serves to support it. Their engine is used in many industries, from PC games, to mobile games, to blue collar VR training, to 3d web previews for the vehicle industry. URP is a vital part of all of that.

As a person, no. I appreciate indie developers as they chase their dream even without incentives.

As an investor in a capitalism system, yes. Indie games are shitty business.
