    Unity also said it will track installs with its own proprietary data. Speaking to Axios, Unity also confirmed that if a player deletes a game and re-installs it, that counts as two installs, and two separate fees.

      That’s fucked because I delete and download games from my steam library all the time. If I need just a little more space I’ll delete a few games but then probably pick them back up a little later.
