I agree with everything you said..
And I'm also saddened to see fabric close-up it's doors,
especially in this already diversity deprived environment.
& all the best to the FE team!

MPC and PSYOP output some great work with Fabric
Engine but in the end I always felt it was too narrowly aimed
at senior TD's with plenty of programming experience. The
success of ICE was fuelled by the compounds that acted as a
gateway drug to the inner workings. I thought maybe that
Kraken would develop into that gateway drug, but after seeing
experienced riggers feeling out of their comfort zone, soon
realised it wasn't to be.
When Eric Mootz joined the team I thought maybe that
would bring about tools for technically minded artists who
weren't necessarily TD's.
Whatever the reasons I feel for the FE team after all
their hard efforts. But I feel as one door closes others
will open for them, folk with that much talent don't remain
jobless for long.

That's too bad.
This is rough market. There's not much money in
developing better solutions. I guess we'll ride out our DCC's
with ancient architecture, and wait till one of us becomes a
billionaire and funds something cutting edge.
I'd love to here more of the story of what
happened from some of the developers.
Guess I'll finally follow you to Houdini,
Oliver.
