IMPORTANT***
I don't know if I had the wrong info or if there was an update to the pricing I wasn't aware of, but the Unity pricing in the video is incorrect, here's the corrected info:

If you upgrade to Unity 6, as mentioned, you'll need to upgrade from Unity personal to Unity Pro is you make more than $200k.

BUT...the runtime Fee/2.5% (lower of) only kicks in when BOTH of these conditions have been met:

1 - you have made $1M in 12 month-trailing revenue, AND
2 - 1,000,000 initial engagements.

Apologies for the error in the video, here's the source:

Hey thanks so much for this, I just wanted to know if you or someone could tell me, I notice a lot of unity and Gadot games are very low poly, is this because of limits with the engines or can you still make higher poly games on them in stylised themes etc I'm not talking AAA graphics but maybe close to league of legends/Runescape 3 graphics thanks heaps

Hello Guys §
@BrokenEggArt December 2, 2024 - 3:35 pm
I’ve bought a few tutorials 😂
@kamajuchikekenate December 2, 2024 - 3:35 pm
Could you just PLEASE ONCE TALK ABOUT WHAT KIND OF A PC AND WHAT SPECS ON IT ONE WOULD EEN NEED TO MAKE 3D GAMES WITH?
Ik you coukd just say that "ooh the Pc Specs DoN't MaTtEr..." as many do...
BUT IT DOES INDEED MATTER,ESPECIALLY FOR 3D MODELING,ANIMATIONS,VIDEI EDITING AND SO MUCH MORE...

so...WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE RECOMMENDED TO SOMEONE TO LOOK FOR IN A PC TO EVEN BE ABLE TO DO SOME OF THE MORE DEMANDING TASKS FOR THE GAME DEVELOPMENT???

Asking bc. I have an 12 year old FX3600 Pc that had started showing it's spirit giving up and I'd have LOVED to buy a new PC that could even open Unity,UE or even Godot,let alone BE ABLE TO ENDURE BLENDER,3D ANIMATIONS and such...bc. I'd have loved to work on an 3d game but don't know what parts would be useful to look for in a pc to be able to do any of the more demanding tasks...
Just PLEASE...I'm asking because NO GAME DEV GUIDE ON YOUTUBE EVER CARED TO EVEN MENTION ANYTHING ABOUT ANY BUILD,EVEN THOUGH IT SHOULD MATTER MORE,SINCE EVERYTHING'S DONE ON THE PC AND THE PARTS THEMSELVES...

@exploraciondelmoldeabstrac8476 December 2, 2024 - 3:35 pm

@mym_yt32 December 2, 2024 - 3:35 pm
So I just downloaded Godot but it’s just files not an engine or anything what do I do EDIT I just figured it out lol
@rahc7319 December 2, 2024 - 3:35 pm
I've been in professional game dev for almost 10 years now and one of the easiest game types you can make from the get-go would be something similar to the "I'm On Observation Duty" series.

There's not much to them. Static cameras, no pawns to control, but you'll be learning about how to craft systems to react to what the player does, or how long the player has gone without reporting an issue in rooms, rather than the itty bitty pieces of how to move a character forward. Once you've dived into something like this and get an understanding of how your chosen engine works, then you can spread your wings a bit more with animation/art/controlling pawns in certain ways.

Thanks bro, I'm now working on Minecraft 2
@MarriedGames December 2, 2024 - 3:35 pm
Sorry but I had to stop watching when you said that Unreal you are going to be working mostly with BPs... this is quite incorrect.
@VKSpaz December 2, 2024 - 3:35 pm
No one word about Game Maker Engine, but show the game, that was made with it to promote Unity, Godot and UE? Really?
@lawitingz8104 December 2, 2024 - 3:35 pm
When you say learn 2 or 3 tutorials do you mean 2 or 3 game tutorials? Or just like tutorials that show the interface and what not
@Serendipity_GamingX December 2, 2024 - 3:35 pm
