I’m literally clueless as to how you can say with a straight face that the game shouldn’t be popular if it has a monopolized plugin market and the other shit you said earlier. Sounds like you’re really trying to force a political ideology into Unturned 4.0 when it really should be simpler.
ImperialPlugins also drops some of the highest quality plugins… Your overall idea of a perfect Unturned 4.0 would literally make the game worse. There would be a LACK of sophisticated plugin content to be released if it’s not for a marketplace for them. These devs won’t spend weeks, sometimes months, coding plugins without pay for 4.0. I paid more than $200 for server plugins that were too sophisticated to ever be released for free to the general public, without IP.
I don’t know about you, but I remember when IP wasn’t so big. 99% of plug-ins used were generic, low quality Rocketmod free ones. The basic shit like uEssentials (an outlier when it comes to free plugins in terms of its high quality), Feasts, etc. Now imagine if we only had those up until 2021… that’s what you’re asking for with Unturned 2. the game would get boring, quick. Yeah there’d be a lack of cliche servers like creative and stuff, but the game would be fucking dead.
If you asked Nelson, I’m sure he’s completely happy with people utilizing the games versatility to try new things on Unturned. This was evident with the Elver update that he had a willingness to expand the game into a different genre essentially. It gives the game a wider variety of style, or way to play it.
You’re calling ImperialPlugins, a literal open marketplace for any talented developer to put out their plugins (for free or for $$$), a monopoly of the plug-in market. It’s like you completely disregarded the purpose of IP right now.
Don’t care about all the SDG political talk, I’m only here because of your flawed “EULA nelson plz people shouldn’t make money for things they spent a lot of time working on” argument that you seem to consistently link to your political opinion, as if that doesn’t fatigue everyone that reads the things you say as you consistently connect socialism to Unturned, but whatever
Also not really cool w how you cherry-pick little fragments of text out of what I said, isolating out the literal point I presented to you as a counter argument almost to pretend it’s not there and didn’t exist. You not only proved that you explicitly chose to not comprehend the majority of what I said, but you also chose to felt backed into a corner because of it. So good job on that ig.
