One of the things that just occurred to me is that Epic could be offering some sort of "move over" deal - like give a reasonable discount for the first year or two for any company that ports their game from Unity to Unreal. I know it's a huge undertaking, but if nothing else they could generate some real positive press and goodwill from the development and gaming communities.
- ffgjgf1 3y agoFor new games would make a lot of sense. For most already released ones porting would be more of political/personal/etc. statement than something that would make financial sense
- sircastor 3y agoQuite frankly I think no one would legitimately take them up on it. You would have to make it apply only to existing, released games as it would lower the likelihood of actually costing Epic any money (from the loss of revenue as few to none would actually do it) and it's a lot easier to prove that a released/finished game is already using the Unity. But the positive response from just offering it would be a good PR move, IMO.
