[@NonBinary_Star]

1:58 WOW! SICK! I thought this was gonna be click bait but hell no. Congratulations on officially joining the Blender render engine development team! Its crazy that something like Blender exists in this late-stage capitalism society.

[@DavidMulderOne]

Just to unnecessarily nitpick: wouldn't late stage capitalism be when monopolies control all markets?

[@DZersen]

@@DavidMulderOne blender is not even in the league with existing monopolies ... what is wrong with you.

[@DavidMulderOne]

@@DZersen That's the point. NonBinary_Star used the present tense to refer to the current situation as "late-stage capitalism", and was surprised that Blender exists. I made the point that we aren't right now in late stage capitalism, arguing that late stage capitalism would probably involve each market being dominated by a monopoly. Obviously this is a fairly pessimistic outlook on unregulated capitalism, but 🤷 .

[@LaynaStambaugh]

@@DavidMulderOne Yea it was kind of a random, needless pick at our world which is obviously doing just fine. Like "Oh yeah life sucks everything's awful so it's surprising that we have this FOSS, incredibly competitive and amazingly well designed engine that literally anyone can else." So. Then. It's NOT that bad?

[@Toksyuryel]

@@DavidMulderOne Monopolies do control all markets. That's why the best way to compete now is to bypass the market entirely like Blender does.

Im going to say this, you are really keeping Monty Oum's dream alive and i must say, Im proud of you and the team, i followed you since 2019 the revolution of the cat meow of anime characters from demon slayer my hero academia You paved the way and made that possible, this is the dedication you peaked from and im damn near proud of you dude

When people talk about large companies, programs or products, it's said knowing the people working there will never hear your complaints, queries or thanks. It feel like Dillon has almost created a link between the average solo developer and a companies product line. (Like Indie games and AAA Game companies, but for animators) It's always possible with dedication, grit and hard work. Evident is for all to see. Thank you for paving the road for us. This will certainly change the future of animation for thousands of creators and millions of viewers.

[@chaosfire321]

I had my fingers crossed the whole time, but hearing you guys working with Blender directly for native NPR support blew me away regardless. Absolute top tier work man!!

This is an actual dream come true!! As soon as I saw Eevee light linking and viewport pass support I felt there'd be a huge push into NPR support coming our way and now there is already an NPR branch! Seeing you become part of the official Blender development team is super inspiring. I remember seeing those Minecraft Fight animations back in the day and they've been a big inspiration for me that also made me discover Blender and now it's become a huge part of my life. Already been a wild journey and I'm super excited to see where the next few years will lead us

[@bloody0perator]

Oh my hot blender. I’ve been teaching myself animation on blender for about a year now, and as a beginner with no idea how to break the systems to make it do what I want (or frankly even how to use them properly) this is really exciting! I can’t wait to see how the development goes, and I will certainly be using NPR in my future projects! I’m also really excited to get my hands on the environment from your arknights animation! It’s one of my favorite games and I would love to mess around making an animation with it!

[@ITBEurgava]

Finally, a quicker access to NPR. Good work, folks!

[@riyan_prof]

I'm glad blender is open source. That can also open the potential people to come in to bring new ideas to the software like you guys doing!

Daaaaamn! I am so glad i clicked on this video. Didn't know the term NPR yet i was always a big fan of these graphics!! Happy to hear you guys are contributing more to Blender. Congratulations and all the best to you.

I’m not an NPR person at all, I’m a super hardcore realism render person, but I’m only half way thru the video and I find this super dope. I’m super psyched for you guys directly and for the rest of the NPR side of the community, GOOD FOR YOU GUYS!!!!!

this is the first I've heard of goo engine and my first thought was "That’s awesome. But if I want to do both styles, I'd need two different sets of software" then I heard your working with blender and OH MY GOOODNESS YES!!!!!!!! This is amazing, for non photo releistic tools native in vanilla blender is so sick. and being able to do these kind of art styles easily, and have simple standardized systems for them is gonna be soo cool. looking forward to it

I learned about you through your blender con talks these last two years and even though I was happy you were working in this direction, I confess I did find it a bit sad that you decided to work on your separate fork of blender (but the rationale is understandable ofc).

I am a big fan of sakuga and hand drawn animation, but I do appreciate Trigun(2023). Moreover, in Blender's official Grease Pencil Demo Reel, there is a segment that is actually 3D NPR animation, but most people were fooled by it. It's a Ranma1/2 fan short created by Japanese 3D animator Ogino Yuichiro. He has 7 videos on his Vimeo, and I think his works showcase a possibility for 3D anime. I highly recommend you check them out.
