I was mainly talking about rental prices in comparison to the more expensive Autodesk counter parts. If sidefx makes their software rental only – there will be only lightwave3D and Modo from big familiar / most popular softwares with perpetual option, I guess Modo will be next rental only and then it would be most likely Houdini but don’t know about LW. For visual effects it will need many things but houdinifx will be great help for now until sidefx will make it rental only – in that point blender should add vfx simulation framework. And feature updates was very dissapointing – they have made that core rewriting 6years now? And sculpting still hasn’t dynatopo.Īfter using blender 2.8 now for few days intesively i must admit that blender is very advanced now and that coming updates to sculpting does look interesting when i read/watched “Sculpt Branch Status Report” – Blender looks to be very good alternative, just need to fix some UI basics (like objects selections in hierarchy) and more motion graphics tools. Atleast when you compare msa to this new licesing options. I trusted that it won’t go this way but it is now clear to me that tehy will go rental only soon. This was so sad news to me… I was big fan.

Always need to buy the newest version with that 3567€ price tag (and that CEO called that MSA unfair). And no more MSA – no possibility to upgrade automaticly in future with lower price.
