Unreal could do the exact same thing. Obviously preaching to the choir on a Lemmy instance of all places, but open source is the only way to be safe for the future. If you're already making the switch because Unity forces your hand, you might as well go with the long runway.

Not only can UE do the exact same thing, but Epic doesn't need small indies as much since they have a more diverse clientbase of heavy-hitters. Epic is much more able to absorb the damage if they make a pricing change that loses them the indie market.
