Depending on how long the backlash can stick around, I would expect to see it go down with a large exodus. In particular, if Microsoft gets upset about the impact it could have to gamepass. Unity does seem to be backtracking, but it really feels like they overextended on purpose to make the actual result feel less shitty

If we could only use some sort of... identifier to know when a game has been installed... like some kind of... serial number or key that is unique per copy...
