Whats the final outcome of Unity’s changes to their license. Also, do the changes apply to previously released games?

    It applies to new installations of previously released games. Notice that it’s “installation” and not “sale”.

        Yep.

        If you want to install your games on multiple computers too. If you sell your computer and installs on the new one too.

        Unity pinky promises that if you get into an argument with the game author and decides to install it in 10,000,000 virtual machines, that they won’t screw the author. They aren’t telling how they will be able to do that.

        Anyway, there are new terms coming, as they may need a few more years to screw all their customers without pushback.
