As an engineer, I'm loving the focus on improving what game developers actually use, instead of focusing on shiny new things that only the Unity PR department want. Most of the improvements in the Programmer tools and Profiler sections are extremely welcomed. Neat.

[sergeysafonov]

I can't believe it! Reordable arrays out of the box! Finally!

[kunkerkar]

24:53 Finally screen space global illumination!!! Looks great!! Awesome work unity!!

[whimsical_travesty]

Voice is too hard to listen to. Specific namings are too hard to catch from the audio. And closed-captions are out of sync.

[chihchang]

i'm really trying to understand her, but it's just impossible

[UGuruz]

*This Unity Update is really AMAZING!😀*

[dfhdgsdcrthfjghktygerte]

26:53 Finally! The long awaited white vignette effect that appears in a corner of a screen when a transparent objects touches it! Thank you, Unity Team.

[Pedro_Marangon]

I think that Unity should add an 2D URP template project, because most games I make are 2D and I almost always adds URP to use the 2D Renderer (so that I can use both 2D Lights and the URP post-processing system), so it would be a nice quality-of-life improvement adding a 2D URP template in the Unity Hub

[wrymen]

Editor/Asset performance improvements are greatly welcome Unity, thanks!

[illsaveus]

I'm having trouble understanding what she's saying without subtitles on

[cfffba]

This seems like a great update. I hope it's reasonably stable.

[ahmedsaed]

Finally, I don't have to wait 10 Years to bake lightmaps at high quality

[StarCourtesan]

I'm sorry but the voice is weird?? Like it was hard for me to understand idk but minor stuff - still loved the video and the updates : ))

[TheLittleSpartan]

To all having struggle to understand her, don't forget to activate the subtitles :D

[expansevr]

The Shader Graph and VFX Graph upgrades look really good. Can't wait to implement them into my workflow!

[neeeeeck]

Why do people complain, I'm not even fluent/native in English, but I understood 100% of what she said.

[fluffy]

Thanks for making it. But for the future I would prefer someone with more clean English pronunciation.

[rendermanpro]

I don't like Unreal Engine in general, but in some features it likes 50 years ahead of this... (like Niagara... "transparent materials, using physical lights units" as a features in 2020? cmon)
But render to movie file and specifically AOV looks awesome here. GPU baking good as well.

[justinwhite]

I'm hoping the safe mode reduces an issue with bolt losing all references to scriptables when there's a script error. I've had to reset references way too many times.

[kusalg]

Looking good unity! those screen space effects will really shine in procedural or player built scenes, specially the GI!
