aint nobody paying for the battle pass buddy 💀💀💀💀💀💀

i, too, think war is bad.

runs like garbage

i, too, like dogs.

pros:
-free and open-source
-very good
-gets better with every update
-free and very good
-has most industry features available either out of the box or behind an included add-on which you only need to enable
-large and welcoming community, which makes a multitude of free tutorials, assets and add-ons
-very well documented either on the manual or other online sources
-many companies are developing integrations to make it easier to integrate blender into their program's workflow
-cycles X is coming in 3.0 and it is amazing
-amazing poly and sculpt modeling support
-pretty much everything except the particles system (which is getting an overhaul soon) works great
cons:
-the many settings can become complicated to manage and choose to make the program work best with your projects
-not very friendly to certain more advanced workflows, such as ACES OpenColorIO color mastering, due to UI issues ie.
-lacking color management options, such as not having the option to limit the view to a certain color space by using your monitor's ICC profile
-some settings lack descriptive enough tooltips or simply don't have them at all, especially on the simulation settings panel.
conclusion:
as is with most programs with a scope as large as blender's, some of its features may be lacking at moments (y'know how it goes, "jack of all trades, master of none" blah blah blah). all the bugs and minor problems are far outshined by the places in which blender is outright amazing, like the cycles renderer, support for industry-standard formats and stupid amount of online tutorials, for example. all of these make blender the single best, free, all-purpose 3d program out there.

note: I have far more hours on blender than it says on my profile, I just don't like having to open steam everytime I want to open it, so I just made a shortcut to the executable.

buy it

7/10, needs more bugs

good.
