[–] PixeIOrange@feddit.de 38 points 2 years ago (2 children) All points made in that post are LMAO. They estimate the installs. Or least thats what remains between they wont track installs and they have a proprietary data model to calculate them. Enshittification takes its course. permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] QuarterlySushi@kbin.social 13 points 2 years ago rofl seriously? Not only will they charge for the installs, but they won’t even use the actual number of installs - they’ll guess? This is the most hilariously stupid business model I’ve ever heard of permalink fedilink source parent [–] dingleberry@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 2 years ago All this makes a lot more sense with the lens of mobile gaming. Effort required is little, and margins are huge. If players don't partake in microtransactions, you just bombard them with ads. This is the future of Unity. They are counting on devs not even bothering with the whole monetization model and instead expect them to turn on IronSource ads. permalink fedilink source parent
