I made a video to help Unity devs quickly navigate things before they make decisions. Watch is not necessary I copy paste my video description below with all the links I shown in video. If you like to hear my thoughts or opinion then watch I don’t mind, I don’t use youtube video to make a living.

-----copy paste below-----

This is not tutorial video, also not video to tell you to use UE. It is a video that tell you the information you might need to start and make a decision for yourself. There are plenty of other better tutorial content creator than me, feel free to search for those.

TL;DW: Just click through the links if you don’t want to spend 30+ mins hearing me talking about it.

    I am not sure if you understand the difference between sharing the code(UE allows you to share code snippet for discussion etc under 30 lines) for discussion etc, compare to paste into your code base and claim it’s your creation. Epic sure was not shy away from suing in the past. And there are other examples, ie. Betheda(ZeniMax) sues Oculus that results in settlements. All from codes/tech implemented.

    Community support or media pressure means very little when you are served with legal notice, as much as I despise the world’s current legal/patent/copyright system works, that’s currently the rules everyone follows.
