Over half of browser games I've been playing uses Unity Web Player plugin. It's hard to believe that suddenly all the developers will take their all games and move them to whatever-is-this-else-technology. I spent years using this plugin and guess what? Nothing bad happened. Why can't I use it anymore? Why can't I decide what I want running on my computer? At least, if it crashes, I will have no one to blame but myself. I use Mozilla mainly for these games so tell me what to do now? Is there an option to enable it on my own risk?

hi, there should be a lego-like plugin icon to the left of the address bar where you can enable plugin content on a page that embeds such content... over the long haul though, mozilla will generally remove support for npapi plugins (like unity web player) starting in 2017. unity is also pushing publishers to switch to web technologies running natively in the browser without the need for any plugins...
