Speaking about freelancers, we maintain a small team here, and so far at the most we have had maybe 2/3 extra 3d freelancers ? (Our overwhelming positions for freelancers here are 2d.) And then it's more likely there're doing something like modelling, while we carry on with more core stuff - so we are more flexible about software at the moment. ie. it's less important for us if people do move towards maya - we have a split of soft/max here (I'm firmly on one side of that) and plenty of freelancers we have just come in and use maya anyway.
It'll be interesting to see what happens... Need to keep an eye on the future but also how many studios are using 2014 versions? Even if when an app stops being developed it wouldn't be a struggle to continue using it for a many years.
