Because greed. Is there any other explanation?
Or because they got bigger than they can currently support and they don't want to lay off their employees.
Unity has absolutely no qualms about laying off employees …
Then they'd use an actually sensible payment model like, gee, say taking a cut of the revenue made from unity games?
This is like being charged every time you eat off of a plate rather than just charging for the fucking plate.
