In the old days of Blender I tried to use it but there was so many changes between version and trying to do tutorials was a challenge by itself.

We're completely agree with Ton's advocacy for open standards in the 3D industry. It's important for collaboration and innovation, and it's frustrating to see companies like Autodesk use proprietary file formats and software lock-ins to limit those possibilities. Glad that he's calling them out on it and bringing attention to the issue. It's interesting to learn about Autodesk's focus on industries that require computer-aided design and visualization, but we hope they can find a way to support open standards and encourage collaboration in those industries as well.

[@ColinFox]

Almost caught up? I think in many ways Blender is *ahead* of the "big guys". Remember that blender has LITERALLY thousands of developers. Not just on the core team, but the entire userbase is potentially a developer. And universities love using Blender for graphics PhD work, since it's open source, and then those PhD projects get rolled back into Blender as new features, advancing the state of the art even more.

I used to use 3ds max for years and switched to blender at 2.8. Once you learn one 3d program you can learn other ones faster. I bought max 2010 non subscription then they switched to subscription only later. IMO subscriptions are like negative cashflow and I avoid them. The subscription was too high for me, I only was making around 5000 dollars a year as a side hustle making animations at the time. Also blender has a lot of cool rendering options. cycles is cool, but also prorender is amazing and free and very under rated, there's also others. With max there was arnold and octane but they were difficult to use IMO, max is glitchy and bloated. Blender has some weird functionality, but I actually think blender is a better program IMO. Also addons are cheap.

empece aprendiendo 3d con 3dstudio antes de que existiera 3dmax, con cada version me intentaba adaptar a los cambios de interfaz etc, pero cuando ya era 3dmax llego un momento que dejaron la interfaz sin el idioma español, y yo no se ingles, pregunte a autodesk por ese borrado de idiomas, en un programa caro. Y la respuesta de autodesk fue que era caro que el programa soportara varios idiomas. No pude continuar aprendiendo 3d, años mas tarde me encuentro Blender con mas de 50 idiomas y gratuito. Posdata: se pilla antes a un mentiroso que a un cojo. jaja jamas utilizare ningun software de autodesk, incluso aunque autodesk me pagara por utilizarlo, tengo principios. y en mi opinion autodesk se rio de los usuarios.

Autodesk definitely used to be an interesting company in the 3D world. But certainly became bloated and boring. Both Max and Maya suffer from so many legacy behaviors that make zero sense because they were designed 25+ years ago, before many of the features needed were even a concept. So things get wedged in to odd places. Plus, watching Autodesk buy some plugin from someone, rebrand it, call it Max 2009, and put their hand out for 'maintenance' became really obnoxious. Max is built on a codebase tied to Windows NT (remember that? No?) that's older than probably most people who use it - the reason you'll never see a Mac version of Max. If you're just looking for a tool, they're fine I suppose. But if you also consider yourself an enthusiast, there's interesting things going on with other non-behemoth packages.

Maya is slow and its lack of evolution and buggy interface tells me it’s not going to end well. Auto desk and adobe are giant industry cancers.

I don't like Autodesk too!

[@Simon2d3d]

THAT'S a spicey meatball 🤌 Autodesk: As in, if you invest only in this company you are AUTOMATICALLY chained to a desk all of your living life trying to pay licensing bills while learning a set of UI and keyboard shortcuts that are in direct opposition with one another. Thanks for telling it straight Ton. We all know Autodesk are too desperate to avoid telling lies about the scary competition. 🔪

[@sanaksanandan]

Are you a paid bot of autodesk or what ? In the past few months you made so many videos talking about autodesk and maya greatness, while dissing on blender.

[@robertYoutub]

Thats called freedom of speech. He got some arguments, still I hate Autodesk too.

[@Alexander-mk4qf]

And he's right, blender is a joke in many ways

[@robertYoutub]

@@Alexander-mk4qf Well he mainly argues for serious industrial work, not Media, and thats right. But also in Media people need standards. Blender not even have a working particle system with full features. And that makes it a joke, compare to C4D and Maya. Still good in other areas.

The line "acquiring software isn't inherently a bad thing" wrong it is if you are a true free market capitalist, don't bring capitalism is good then say this line! Sorry but large companies that monopolise for bigger and bigger profits and for market share dominance is inherently bad and that is part of the problems of our society today, the acceptance of such things is inherently anti competitive and anti consumer! especially if you are a so called free speech and free market capitalist lover! sorry but this video is just click bait for views

[@jdotem]

you're conflating monopolies with the free market, that's not how it works.

[@GodIsADog]

Blender is the future stop talking with the mouth breathing sheep that say otherwise, no matter what software your using in the end its a tool, its up to the artist to create.

[@eviv8010]

First of all you are delusional if you think Blender is free, its just a different monetization method. Secondly why not just use both, and get the better of the two worlds lol And thirdly most of the coolest Blender script/plugins are still commercial lol I bet many that hate AD never worked in their software

[@abiyyupanggalih854]

If both software developer as country it's gonna be Blender : Soviet Union Autodesk : USA

That would mean Ton Roosendaal taking decisions without consulting anybody, all developper fearing him. No gays allowed using Blender please.

[@TheNjordy]

[we] need to update and "fix" it (fbx support) every years? Oh my god, what a nightmare! Why would you need to update things so often! It only took 30 years to update to left click selection, geez. Plus, it's not like other companies need to do it, and not b***ch about it...

lol thats the most hilarious video, Ton did the same shit with Alembic (a reminder it's open source) at the beginning he didn't want to integrate it in blender, "blender doesn't need that blablabla" people had to fight years and years. The FBX case is just pure BS finding excuses
