hey maybe this is a naive question, but legally how can they impose new fees and charges retroactively on people who already paid to use the engine to make a game under a previous license? is that kind of stipulation not equivalent to "we have total ownership over anything you produce with our techology in perpetuity"?

The terms of service day they can. But as we all know that is not legally binding and they are hoping no one with financial power calls them on it.
