What exactly did unity have so many employees for? I’ve only just realized that I don’t know what their company does, besides develop a game engine.
They offer enterprise level support for their engine and also have a lot of mobile focused development. They have their own in house ad provider and dedicated a bunch of man power to monetizing mobile as much as possible
Don't forget the contracts with the military to help train them to "definitely not kill people"!
Military does a lot more than just going around killing people, I sincerely hope this is a thing you understand, please tell me you’re aware..
Given how stagnant the engine has been over the years, I wonder the same thing. So many people over there yet so little value being added to their game engine.
I think they bought some comany that could help them get into the CG movie sence like what unreal is doing with disney and the likes. The new CEO is try to focusing on the gaming aspect of untiy so they are selling off some parts of the acquisition. I think they mostly kept the IP but are liquidating everything else.
