Nothing to do with Epic, or does it, but Ubisoft will also be supporting Blender:
"Not only will Ubisoft help funding online support for Blender developers, Ubisoft Animation Studio – a department of Ubisoft Film and Television – will also use Blender for their productions and assign developers to contribute to Blender’s open source projects."

This is amazing! Didn't want to spam this thread with this, but I'm really excited for the support Blender is getting. There's also rumors of some more announcements at Siggraph in a week. 
Should there maybe be a Blender thread here too? I'd imagine there's many mappers here using blender.
Fuck yeah Blender! I wish I had time to transition now, but I deffo see a future where I fully adopt Blender into my workflow.

Deffo make one!
I'd like to learn to love blender. Whenever I try, the polygon tools just doesn't seem to work for me. I'm too used to think how I would do things 3dsMax style. I get frustrated and quit and return to using max

Have you given Blender 2.8 a proper look? They've revamped the UI and added industry standard keymap with left click select + many sweet improvements like PBR-viewport etc.
RC2 just landed and the final release should drop this week if no showstoppers arise.

Surprised they didn’t pay more for Subnautica. They got a bargain.
Paying $1,000,000 for “Mutant Year Zero”? Wtf
The rest seems reasonable.
11mil might sound like a lot of ruppies for you and me, but that's a drop in the bucket for a big corpo. Gotta hand it to Epic, they're playing the long game to win.

Think Mutant was one of the first exclusives? ?

When I saw that I thought “only?”, I was expecting that costed them much more. Anyway gotta spend money to make money. And they have loads thanks to Fortnite… when you make up to $400 mil in a month, you paid for the free games for years ahead!

It will be interesting to find out more about their publishing initiative, haven’t heard anything after Remedy signed on.

Honestly they would "win" more by investing more in the actual software and maybe a little less on the free games. One of the reasons Steam is the go to for consumers, its largely due to features.
