i wanted to like blender, i really did, but, i dont know… its not very user friendly, and yeah, i know most the shortcuts and it still really isnt all that user friendly, i think its too customizable and does too much that it really only becomes a jack of all trades and a master of none of them… they try taking on too much and making it do more than what most people would ever consider using it for… like ffs, a gaming engine? really? and how much of the market share did they expect to wrestle away from polished gaming engines like unreal, unity, or cryengine?
