This whole thread is backwards. Just because FOSS software isn't the tip of the spear it's quite amazing how capable a lot of it is.

I never been a blendlet but I've kept tabs on it and I am impressed where it's gotten thruout the years.
If you think blender sucks dick it's pretty much because you suck dick.

Perhaps you wont be swallowing even the balls, deepthroating every mm of shaft if you switch to another software but you will still be at choke depth.
If you can't make good art with blender you will remain a weaksauce crying kitty no matter where you go.

Blender literally had the best UV unwrapping tools in the industry at one point. Also open source is used in research so quite often it's ahead of the game technologically, but unfortunately that also means less optimised.

I can't remember exactly, somewhere around 2010 I guess? All the industry fags started doing their unwrapping in Blender because it added pinning and had the latest unwrapping algorithm.

Also all you zoomer faggots forget that Blender started life as closed source inhouse software. It was only made open source later on.

If you're shit at something, no one wants it unkrsd you give it out for free.

I read about blender in magaazines for years, back when paper mags actually talked about interesting stuff.
When the 2600 magazine started adding a "Fiction" section it was basically over.

It's about the freedom, not the price you dumbfuck. Besides, companies make more money out of SaaS and tech support than with selling software itself.

This won't happen in 1000 years. Blender devs aren't even able to create basic UV tools or baking utilities.

this. i switched from blender to max and there are so many improvements, such a greater performance and so many useful, highly professional tools/addons that i was blown away. miles better than blender and i will never go back again. the sad thing here is that i solely use max for something as straightforward and simple as hard-surface-modeling and blender can't even truly compete in such a basic category.

the idea of blender ever catching up to zbrush is also completely outlandish: blenders core is highly inefficient and can't handle lots of polygons. the result is (minor) input lag while sculpting (extremely bad, huge huge reason to never consider using it for sculpts) and completely abysmal performance on dense sculpts. zbrush, meanwhile, has been perfectly smooth and responsive no matter how many polygons i ever threw at it. in order to get even, blender would have to re-do it's fucking core code (lol), which is 100% never going to happen. on top of that, not even something as simple/quick to develop as the brushes/alphas/tools are of comparable quality.

then there's houdini, which not only has like 10x the sheer amount of nodes (actual rough number), but HIGHLY OPTIMIZED (!!!) nodes, while blender just has unoptimized nodes "that kinda work". even if you stripped away the "more" stuff houdini has it would still be far superior.

blender users that speak highly of it are unironically all autist and schizo losers that will never ever make it, and i am not exaggerating when i say that. i fucking mean it.
(as a beginner) use blender, it's a great way of finding out whether 3d CG is generally for you. but do not delude yourself into thinking you are using anything other than buggy, unoptimized hobbyist freeware.

I see, you don't know about Sverchok. Sverchok is a free addon for Blender, way older and way better than the new geometry nodes feature. Most stuff that you do with Houdini can be done with Sverchok.

i find it funny that people here always shit on eachothers softwares in bait threads made by trolls, but they never post their work to show how good the software is

atleast the blender users and zbrushers have enough courage to post their ugly looking work, which is not a thing i see with the so powerful "houdini chads" and maya/max shills

this board is just a big larping ground for schizophrenics, i always hide all threads except /wip/, /sqt/, the piracy ones and rarely some which i find interesting
