      Indie gaming is only getting better and better - unity self-immolating has slowed the tide a bit, but random individuals now have access to tools on par with professionals

    That’s okay, you just need to get comfortable with me pirating your games… Then again that’s Ubisoft, I don’t think I even want to pirate their stuff.
