So… It’s historically accurate? The “heart” symbol doesn’t really look like an actual heart and may have been modelled after a bum or a scrotum. Or the seed of a plant used as a contraceptive.
- Comment on That Portal 64 demake we liked so much has been kiboshed by Valve: 'They have asked me to take the project down,' creator says 9 months ago:
Because that is all they got. Even if they make some profit on the sale of the hardware, it is peanuts compared to the game and tie-in sales. Losing control of even a single IP would be a serious hit to them.

Valve has been quite supportive of fan projects like Black Mesa and Delta Particles and only demanding to remove Half-Life from the name to protect their trademark. But I guess they don’t want to risk involving Nintendo.
- Comment on Unity apologises. 1 year ago:
Laws and terms are for the poor. I am sure big players like miHoYo, Niantic and Game Freak (Pokemon Go/Scarler/Violet) already have their own agreements and would not be affected by this.
- Comment on Unity adding a fee for devs for each time a game is installed, after certain thresholds 1 year ago:

- Comment on Unity has changed its pricing model, and game developers are pissed off 1 year ago:
Can’t wait an indie developer to go bankrupt because the super secret algorithm counted updates as new installations and the developer gets billed multiple times for their whole player base.

So… If the Unity’s secret spyware and algorithm suddenly decides to count an update as a new installation, you suddenly get slapped with a huge bill. Especially if you release multiple small patches and your whole player base is counted multiple times.
