I have not yet played a Unity game which doesn't have the "unity look and feel". I don't think anyone is going to be able to convince me otherwise. I am happy to purchase a modern (in the last 3 months) popular unity game tonight. If you can think of one that doesn't run like a Flash SWF, I will buy it.

- Hollow Knight

- Hearthstone

- Night in the Woods

- Hidden Folks

- Enter the Gungeon

- Superhot

- Ori and the Blind Forest

- Broforce

- Grow Home

- Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime

There're these, for a start. (Though I don’t know why "modern" is qualified as being within three months.) Perhaps the problem is that no one can recognize a game made with Unity at a glance? The cheaper, lousier games can’t or don’t pay to remove the "Made with Unity" splash, so Unity has acquired something of an [image problem].

And how would you know what engine was the game built with anyway? If you're relying on the Unity log splash screen, then indeed you only see games developed by beginner teams who can't even afford a paid license.

Can't you tell? I can't tell the difference between Lumberyard, Crytek, Unreal (I could Unreal until 2012ish), but I always know a unity game because it looks and runs like shit.

OK, so when you see a game that looks like shit, you have a hypothesis that it's a Unity game, and vice versa.

How, exactly, do you confirm these?
