It is a bit bad that even after so many concerns displayed from customer about Softimage and AD's plans for it, that not a single official line of word was put out. Is it so hard to let people know what is going on and where does it all lead? For someone that is just starting, choosing a software is a big deal and as much as you are saying another software just a another tool, one thing is for someone with 10-20 years of experience to switch between tools when he probably already tried all or most different versions and bin following all of them during past years, and completely different thing for someone who is jsut starting out. And spending 10 years before they can be industry ready... not sure that is something you would advise your kids right? :) People need to learn something that will get them to work fast at least at first and then maybe start learning others. But most of them will stay with what they learned especially when it is pushed all the time ahead of other option, no matter if they are better or not. And ofc you get same cycle, people will learn what is considered mainstream, you will have more stuff using that, and then next generation will keep adding more and more to same pool.
But getting more and more OT. Thing is is that would be nice to get any insight into plans for our software of choice. That is all.
