      No need to try again. They already are implementing additional costs. 2 steps forward, 1 step back.

      Eh, if you want a scapegoat you generally wouldn’t use the CEO for that. Plus, he is known for pushing shady practices at EA as well, so I have no doubt he was a major driving force behind their original monetisation scheme. I don’t think they will try the same thing again, as it was just a really dumb idea that wouldn’t have made sense for anyone, including Unity themselves who don’t even have a reliable method of tracking installs.
