And I’m surprised there’s a lot of talk about this only affecting small indy games. Lots of games use Unity. Lots of mobile games use unity including games like genshin impact.

Yes, Unity has killed themself. There's an open source engine, Godot, that has been coming along nicely, and I expect all indie developers to switch to that. The employees at Unity warned against this change, but as usual the MBAs decided they know what's best and implemented it. Then they tried saying that MS, Sony, Nintendo, and Apple will pay the fees? They're out of their mind.

Re: Unity commits corporate suicide
The threat was made by a Unity employee, so "suicide" is actually pretty fitting!
The "credible" death threat that prompted the closure of Unity offices yesterday was made by a Unity employee, police have now revealed.
A statement from San Francisco police, via Polygon, explained that the threat originated from an employee who had "made a threat towards his employer using social media".
The unnamed employee who made the threat did not work in the San Francisco office, and it's unclear what further action is being taken. We'll update if we hear more.

I know the Penny Arcade guy has changed his style over the years but what the heck happened to his art?
