Have a look at http://www.thefoundry.co.uk/products/modo/learn/
Specifically the getting started videos for animation and particles. It really shows how they are trying to make the tools artist friendly. There is definitely a place for the more technical approach and I would go as far as saying Softimage in a lot of tech areas has Maya beat.
