    I feel like unity is the most likely to die. Their users are way more likely to switch to an alternative than people using reddit

    Unity alternatives are also way more known than reddit or twitter alternatives

      But the alternatives aren’t as developed. Godot still isn’t great for 3D projects and Unreal is Epic and also has royalty fees like Unity tried to add.

        Unreal only has a 5% fee on games that made over 1 million USD

        Unity wanted to add a 0.20 USD tax for every download after you made 200K USD 200K users(which changes depending on how many downloads your game has and which plan you are using)

        Units pricing method could have been easily exploited, game developers would have to pay for people pirating their games, if a free to play game reached those requirments, it could cost them more than the game made, giveaways would cost game developers money and all unity games would have to collect data
