Because I don't like Blender and I didn't want to waste anyone's time with suggesting Blender to me.

I found that the https://www.bforartists.de/ overhaul makes Blender way more approachable though.

Edit: I just wanted to clarify that my response is not intended to be snotty. Sometimes, being matter-of-fact doesn't translate well on the internet.

Bforartist against 2.80 ?

Advantages - Disadvantages ?

If you want a powerful GPU renderer for free, then Octane is free in Unity. MOI models import fine into Unity as obj.

I can't say for sure, Frenchy. I was able to accomplish more basic things on my own with bforartists, but my brain just does not compute Blender's ideology.

There are quite a lot of articles and videos that go over the differences though.

<< a powerful GPU renderer for free, then Octane is free in Unity

Cool trick! ;)

Also Octane is coming out with a free 2x GPU-limited option in Q1 2019. Very cool.

Blender 2.79: couldn't agree more. Very difficult to learn and use.
Blender 2.8: complete GUI overhaul. Very easy to learn and use. Plus with EEVEE, you can render and animate in realtime. Pretty good stuff.
