the only attention it gets is that it is everyones first 3d software. the 2% that have what it takes to make it then switch to zbrush, 3ds max, maya etc.

blender is great for very quick prototyping (hardops/boxcutter), but even that is a copy of an old 3ds max plugin (lasercutter from 2015 or whatever it's called) - and blocking out is maybe 5% of hard-surface modeling.

Blender will cease to exist if it has a pricetag next to it and if it doesn't have a pricetag why would Adobe buy it?

Whatever functionality it has can be copied by Adobe or others and transferred into their proprietary stuff.

It's not. I can't think of one thing Blender is better at than the alternatives. Blender is not great not terrible.

not an argument.

oh and I found the name of the addon that boxcutter (well worth the money) copied its functionality from: lazercut, which is included in keyhydra (came out like 7 years ago). in other words: just get 3ds max + keyhydra (the older version is free) and even the one single tiny apparent advantage that blender seemed to have had is gone. 3ds max's modifier stack cannot be replaced and the retopology modifier that comes with 2022 gives WAY better results than even expensive retopology plugins such as quadremesher.

literally and unironically no reason to use blender once you've learned the basics. its symbol is a 666 for a reason.

zbrush for sculpting, 3ds max for hard-surface, maya for animation and blender for 80 IQ smelly indians.

blender lets you view and dissect the source code. Because of this it's far more advanced than you put on. I've modified so much blender code and forked so much its unreal

I would consider modo but honestly blender interface is too good and crazy customizable

Quite possibly. But I already got used to Blender and plugins (half of which are copies from Max btw) can make it pretty good too.

Anonymous at Mon, 31 Oct 2022 09:15:37 UTC No. 923950

At this point I think there's also things that Blender can do that other software can't.
For instance if you know a little bit of python you add scripts to your scene which execute during animation and store the result in an attribute.
This is especially useful with geometry nodes. You can archive dynamic environments with this technique or effects that would otherwise require simulation but are repeatable and behave according to your liking.

this is a bad thing. blenders plugins are open source and people still sell them and have way more sales than anything in maya. lets skip this plugin autism, what else can maya do that blender cant?

its not a bad thing, shitter. Renderman is literally industry standard and its implementation within the best DCC, Houdini, in Solaris, is sublime.

>blenders plugins are open source and people still sell them and have way more sales than anything in maya
at least half of blenders python plugins depend on closed source pyc which you would know if you had actually looked below the surface

The rigging and animation isn't significantly better. I can tell you some big obvious reasons why Zbrush is better at sculpting for example, yet you have not listed a single one for animation and rigging.
