This is of course not including the yearly Unity subscription, where Unity Pro costs $2,040 per seat (although they may have Enterprise pricing)

Absolutely ridiculous. Many Unity devs are saying they're switching engines on social media.

Unity was a massive pile of crap when it was first released as well. Hopefully Godot will improve over time like unity did.

Problem is back then no better alternative existed. Now it does

Another problem is that Unity has a team of paid engineers and Godot doesn't. Or does it?
