People are wondering what the advantage of this is. It's worth noting that Autodesk have not updated their Scaleform plugin to work with Unity 5. I was pretty annoyed, and it seems like this could be the reason why.
Unity's UI got better recently (in 4.6+), but Scaleform is still leaps-and-bounds above almost anything on the market.
That, combined with Autodesk Navigation - another very powerful tool they previously charged a lot of money for (pricing for that was even on-demand only), means there's genuine reason to consider this.
The obvious downsides are the lack of free access/assets that you get with Unity, that Unity/Unreal have huge communities and years of YouTube tutorials. But that might come in time.
Perhaps the claims about performance and ease are exaggerated, but maybe they're not. I've worked with Unity for a while, and it certainly isn't perfect. There are some clunky, unintuitive things going on. Don't get me wrong, Unity is a fantastic tool, and our company wouldn't be what it is today without it, but this atleast warrants a look at, for me :)
