This reads like a statement from a vulture capitalist who plans to break up the company and sell the parts to make a quick buck. One would think they would focus on building trust, not giving yet more devs reasons to use a different engine.

Sad thing is, it lets Epic run most of the table now. Their shite business practices and ethics are just ridiculous. To have them leading the whole industry with little competition is a damn shame.

I think many devs are moving to Godot, but certainly Epic will pick up some market share here.

Unfortunately Godot, while a promising project, is nowhere near as production ready or feature rich as Unity or Unreal.

I just hope it gets the funding and resources it needs to realize its potential. Hopefully all the recent attention helps.

It has actually. https://fund.godotengine.org is at $50K a month donations now. It went up around $30K since the start of the new Unity pricing announcement

I hope so, too.
