Why do you call it a waste of a license?

It's not suitable for us currently. Before we won the license we had no idea what the engine is about. Would you want for us to spend 5 years in development with Unigine and then switch back to DP engine or UDK ? :)
Unigine is powerful, multiplatform, but not without weaknesses. It's scripting is horrible IMO. They should have went with Lua or something similar, not with C++ like scripting nightmare.

As somebody who has worked with Both Unigine script and Lua based engines - I have to call BS on that one. Uniginescript isn't particularly harder to work with. It's an algol family language like C,C++,D,Java,Ecmascript(javascript). It is not really any more difficult to use than say using Javascript to make a dynamic web page. It is close enough to C++ use a C++ IDE including syntax highlighting and code completion.

Having an Aesthetic preference for one language over another is one thing. But calling either a nightmare is indulging in a conciderable amount of hyperbole
