you want to be a real rigger? stop turning on all the controls at the same time

1) Install Autodesk Maya

blender studios rigs are a bad place to start learning, they unironically use black magic to rig their stuff and dimitri dzadik (dev on cloudrig, rigify, main rigger for blender studio) is kinda secretive about his methods and is bad at explaining things on the rare occasions that he does.
Pierrick Picaut is the next best rigger in blender, and his methods are from his own autistic study and reverse engineering of rigify and cloudrig. buy/pirate his aoer2 course and check out his youtube vids for rigging knowledge. but know that he does skip some good techniques because he only rigs for games, which is different than rigging purely for animation.
for something quick and dirty, use rigify. for something quicker and dirtier, use auto rig pro or mixamo.
if you're specifically interested in faces like your pic, know that there's a shitload of constraints and corrective shapekeys involved and it's gonna be a LOT of time and effort on your end if you want to do it manually.

If you want to be a n!99er, don't be a retarded n!99er.
Use EU5 like a REAL n!99er.

How's apex so far? beta workflow aside is it fully featured?

No one uses in game engines like unity and unreal to animate. They lack the tools.

As in their code makes no sense or they use hidden features in the program?

how are these two different? did you mean like Shogun and then MoBu?

It's two things. First of all at the Blender Studio they barely use Blender at all and second, with your generous donations, they have developed a large number of bugfixes and modifications which are never going to be released to the public. All of the above is alleged of course.

You are wrong, maybe the new troons for diversity and inclusion, but I personally know a bunch of them "the ones who do real things" and they are schizo freaks that use blender for every fucking thing, and I mean every fucking damn thing.
I don't know about the unreleased bugfixes because I don't work on the blender foundation

Autorig is really good, but not many anons know how to use it.
You can rig an asimetric monster with multiple limbs really quickly if you know what you are doing

And how many years of experience do you need to "know what you're doing" in Blender? See, when you say Blender is very fast and whatnot, it's all relative.

0, just pay for the addons. like 100% of pros.

No no you can’t, the thing is fake and gets octopus rigging wrong every time. Just normal rig like actual rigging, auto rig is junk.

About a few hours of reading documentation and maybe a few days of tutorials that teach you how to use each part, not only the human rig

2 to 3 good years? really not that long
faster than learning to draw, that shit takes so long

if you're learning how to draw all you have to do is follow the very well established cg rendering equation to draw any object which is your NdotL diffuse equation added to your R.V specular equation

I have Maya but see no reason to use it for rigging or animation. Could you explain why?

I'm not afraid of manually rigging stuff I just don't see what the point is when I can get the same result with an addon faster.
