Unity CEO John Riccitello has apologized for “rude” comments made during interviews with developers who did not implement monetization options in their games, prompting a major industry outcry. “I’m listening and I’ll do better,” says Riccitello.

In a recent interview with Pocket Gamer, the Unity CEO (former EA CEO) called developers who don’t implement monetization opportunities early on in their games “the nicest, cleanest, brightest” but also “one of the bigger”. imbeciles”. *foolish idiots.

Unsurprisingly, it didn’t sit well with the gaming community, including the developers behind it. Nickelodeon Brawl Stars, gotham knights, Heavenly, Selacohas been Star Wars Jedi Survivor.

Riccitello posted an apology on his Twitter page. “My choice of words was harsh, I’m sorry,” the Unity CEO begins, “I’m listening and I’ll do better.” He gives more context to his thoughts on the matter, or “what he would say if he were more careful.”

Riccitello adds that he meant but “clearly didn’t say” that “there are better ways for game developers to know in advance what players think of their game” and to make changes, or not to make changes based on feedback. “Both options are very decent.”

“If I was smarter in my choice of words, that’s what I’d say,” he concludes, adding that the “idiots” comment is “a phrase I wish I’d never said.”
