Being a former Maya instructor, I can tell you that Blender has a much more robust modelling set of tools over Maya. Blender with the right set of addons however, totally draws circles around Maya it that regard.

There is no comparison to be made between the 2 They are complementary If the goal is to make a game, you have to model and create the skeletons for the animations in Blender, then transfer everything to UE For animations, Blender is 'easier', but UE more complete

They're generally more complementary to each other rather than competitive. At this point I kind of wonder how come Blender and UE don't get integrated, it's like Blender Game Engine, but if UE could have a fully functioning Blender inside it you could do everything in one program. Obviously it's no small task, but considering Blender is open-source, I don't see why they couldn't make it happen.

the way you provided the information, I really liked it. Great communication skills ❤❤❤❤

Well done mate. Really good breakdown and explination. Looks like UR will be best for rendering off the stills I need and Blender for the finetuning of the models. Great scebe set-up too.

Amazing video, was waiting for this one

I enjoyed watching. I have played with both, however I think for interior scene design, I may invest more time with Unreal due to the integrated asset library & bounce over to blender to model custom objects. What are you thoughts on this?

Can't you potentially use the two for their strengths? Blender for characters, props and animations, UE for set design and cinematography?

wonderful insight, just started learning blender and now also trying to grasp unreal engine

really really great video man, i just wanted to advice you to add some objects on the table so the scene doesn't feel empty and lower the brightness on your right side, peace!

We have the same discussion at work - I prefer Unreal Engine most of the time, but animation/motion design stuff etc. is better in Blender, but also depends on the complexiety, budget of client etc etc :)

i personally find mastering UE5 easier than blender. and the UI is almost identical to me. UI movement is easier in UE5 though. everything from modeling to animation and rigging in UE5 is either the same or easier in difficulty, the steps are relatively the same. and in the end, rendering in ue5 is faster thanks to lumen and nanite. so im really unsure why you said blender is easier to master...

Amazing bro. What song did you use at the end? Please make more blender content :)

I enjoyed your video. I really liked your presentation style.

This channel is going to be huge! Amazing production quality and information. If you have the time, I have a question for you… I am exploring the possibility of recreating jewellery items in 3D. Which tool would be easier to use to reproduce intricate jewlery starting from a picture reference? Thanks!

it was amazing - great work! cheers!

I'm searching a render program for my architecture proyects, for my unreal would be better?

Subscribed ! Great video.

Thanks for this video. Very helpful.

great explanation, worth an subs 🤝

good vid dude. your perspective is spot on.

what is better for architecture ?

Great video, very informative.

Great presentation. You drew the right lines of compare. Keep it up.

you should make the next video about blender vs houdini. your videos are very easy to understand. very informative.

The quality of this video is mind-blowing

For me im very new to this n hav started learning blender. Id like to learn ue5 to use them together but problem for me is the controls are totally different. Does anyone kno of a plug in or settings that would allow me to navigate in ue5 the way i do in blender? Would really help. Im literally a landscaper tryin to help my kids do some fun videos but blenders a lil slow and gets bogged down so easy im finding myself learning to cut corners more than anything else. N i gav a 4070ti which shuld b descent. Still ue5 has render speeds to b envied

great video . thanks a lot❤

Bro just got a new subscriber

Thank you, super helpful. Subscribed/

How much time do you think it'll take me until i master blender? I've been learning blender for 5 weeks now, i made multiple animations already and i can say that im now able to make simple animations on my own. But what about photorealistic stuff? Is it hard to master?

Your videos is amazing I appreciate your hardwork you deserve more 💜

such a good video thank youuu

in my opinion. Blender is a hammer, UE5 is a drill. Should have both in your tool box if you want to get the job done.

You can easily import quixel assets into blender using the quixel launcher.

For architecture model making and rendering which is good ?

Sadge you didn't talk about comparion to Unreal Path Tracing rendering. Because Lumen while is great at real time game rendering it is still lacks at details, specifically at reflections, highlights and some other stuff. So you need to switch to path tracing in Unreal Engine if you want to make good quality rendering in that areas. And that where we can compare Unreal Path Tracing to Blender's Cycles. What I find mostly underrated is the ability to work with huge scenes inside Unreal Engine even WITHOUT Nanite (Nanite is actually pretty heavy, so your memory will tank), while Blender with huge city, for example, will be slow as hell to navigate. This is basically why I actually kinda strugle to choose where I want to layout and render my huge scenes.

Need an update video

well... the new update about blender having eevee next (which is like lumen) its hard to choose

Great video!

dude your stuff is amazing, I've been using blender for quite a while. but i kind of face some problems here and there, on the other hand, I see UE is a bit more suitable for me.

i am a physics teacher.. kimdly suggest me,which software i should use for physics stimulations 3D videos?

Stellar quality of video bro

Loved it, no fluff

Why doesn't Unreal have a Datsmith Blender plugin? Something very suspicious there. It exists for almost all other DCCs.

Resources! Blender needs much less space and computing power for a beginner to get started. Doesn't even seem to be a point thinking about UE unless you have acerage to throw around on the disk and RAM galore. On a low end machine, you can get work done, and use a render farm and make a film without ever meeting a GPU!

thank you for the video

tnx dude

model your character, object in blender. Animate a big scene as your wish in ue that's it

i am working in blender and Houdini since 1 year and wanted to try UE so is it worth it?

I intend to create content I intend to create content with CG environments and some effects, nothing very sophisticated and I want to create weekly content, so I need speed and things, objects, environments that are already ready and modifiable to use. Which two would you personally recommend?with CG environments and some effects, nothing very sophisticated and I want to create weekly content, so I need speed and things, objects, environments that are already ready and modifiable to use.

porque no los dos?

Literally me using all the programs together

Nice video but it would have been helpful to look at some real world examples and weigh up which would be best. For example...If you want to composite a 3D train into a scene, you can't camera track in unreal but you can in blender etc and so on.

great vdeo...

Dude 743 subs. oh weit 744 Subs. You have a niche here. I suggest you demonstrate similar projects in Blender vs UE5. And how to create a workflow between both of them. I am completely new to the game. I started using UE5 to learn how game developement works. Then i quickly realise the creativity is the design. the functions in the game are not soooo crazy to accomplish. I had no idea about anything. Coding = Magic. so i wanted to do my first small game like i dont know even what its going to be. Just a simple game loop i dont know just getting started. but i want that it looks like my creation. I dont want to drop just some assets and lets go. i want to create them.

ok but why pick when you can have both

Hey! Not sure that anyone will see this... BUT I think UE5 is good, starting from small projects to very huge projects and its max rendering capabilities are 8k (maybe 12 or 16 k but it's very hard, and big scenes won't render in such resolutions). The main problem here would be Vram. UE5 doesn't accept 2 GPUs, so you are blocked with 1 GPU with 24 GB of Vram max... Sure you can buy a6000, but from what I heard it's much slower (x2) than 4090. So it's a big problem. Blender on the other side is awesome for still images or very small projects and Ultra huge ones. When I'm saying about huge ones I'm saying about renders at least 8k+, more like 12k+ with enormous scenes and animations, and using render farms to make videos. No rendering a car with HDRi, more about rendering thousands of spaceships destructing and interacting with physics simultaneously. So the decision is up to you what to choose, but if you aren't expecting to render smth in 12k in the next years - choose UE5. You will save hundreds of hours for rendering. Really. For example, now I can render the scene with more than 1 000 000 000 polygons in 8k and 60 fps in 1 hour... You can check my channel if not believe me. Also the speed of creating environments and everything is xxxx faster than in Blender. Mainly because you have a ton of assets in 1 project and could use them all anytime (for example I have now 600+ Gb project files and typing "chair" gives me a choice from 200 meshes xd).

Cool production style. Seems like ima model in blender then, maybe, create environments with unreal. At least that’s what I’m thinking right now. Haven’t really explored environment design in blender.

But what if it's comes to rendering characters. Which is better

i have to disagree on rendering . giving a point to UE on rendering is fine ...because exact reasons that you've made .....BUT THERE'S SOMETHING TO BE MENTIONED. to have that AWESOME RENDERING ( with speed ) ...IT TAKES SOME COMPUTING POWER. in other words ...YOU NEED A BEAST OF A COMPUTER JUST TO OPEN UNREAL without crashing immediately. while on the other hand i work quite flawlessly with EEVE ( with some adjustments of lights ).

Realtime workflow in unreal is what makes the difference blender is gd for modeling and geometry nodes but since we have now pipelines between the 2 softwares unreal is the deal for the final outcome

Blender and UE5 complement each other rather than oppose one another. Blender is primarily for modelling which you can then use inside of UE5

They both win as it's not a "OR/vs" .. UE makes worlds and blender make models

I always use both unreal engine and blender.

i love this video

The comparison between these two doesn't really make much sense. because blender is a 3d package specifically focused on art, films etc and unreal is a game engine. so the tools and rendering techniques are going to differ by a huge margin, espacially unreal engine because it uses Real Time rendering techniques. however using both as combo makes more sense. like using blender for modeling & animation then sending it to Unreal for materials, VFX and Rendering sequences

Both are good. So i go for both. that way, more percentage of pros and less percentage of cons.

Blender is clearly a winner in almost every aspect except its realtime renderer EEVEE. LUMEN is super powerful against EEVEE. At what cost? If you got a powerful gpu. For 3D artists, the only major advantage against blender is the realtime render in Lumen. However, most of 3d artists transport their scene from blender to unreal just for this reltime rendering. Besides these UE5 can handle 100X more geometry load than blender but thats not a huge deal for this case. I am using blender for almost 4 years and UE5 for almost 3 years. Both are superv engines and close to my workflow. Lets see if this video is valid for next few months as blender had introduced EEVEE NEXT. And it seems promising against LUMEN. Which might change the current workflow for realtime rendering.

so, model and animate in blender Then render in UE

There is no point in comparing these 2 programs since they are free and you can use both😇

not if you know UE 5 have full set" blender " modeling tools already

its just better to use both 😅

Comparing any 2D/3D editor/design software to a game engine is like comparing apples to oranges. A game engine can be 100,000 times more complex than Blender, Maya, or even Houdini.

VERSUS?

u have to use a bit of both tbh

2 tools very diferent.. I don´t understand this comparation..

I would not compare these two programs because they are used for different purposes

Unreal modeling suck. It's good for blocking out or on the site simple modeling of architecture for a level. It saves time from going into Blender or Max just to make some stairs or walls unless you want fancy Roman columns then you would have to go back into your modeling program.

why compare Blender with Unreal, it is like comparing which is better Hammer or Hand Saw, Unreal is not Modelling software while Blender is not a Game Engine even if it was.

No se pueden comparar palomitas de maiz con coca cola. Se complementan.

The problem with these softwares is that theres unlimited limitations so you dont know where to start😭

Blender is best 😊

these are two different applications

bro comparing a 300 mb program with a 20 gb one (blender is 1.5% of the size of ue w/ eve bein far faster)

Unreal render thousands of trees, while blender with 100 trees cpu on fire

They're just partners Without Unreal Engine there would be no top games. Without blender there would be no top models for these games. Just know it :)

Ok so why are you comparing two programs used for two ifferent things. to each other. I dont understand. which one is better. They both do different Shit and have different purposes. have you ever seen a game have a blender splash screen cuz it was made in blender? NO. Why? they blender is not a game engine. Come on man

If Blender does not keep up and keeps selling addons only .. unreal will soon take over

Some of your points are way to superficial. For example you can't compare cycles and lumen in a general way, apart from the speed and 'quality' you have to talk about volumetrics(VDBs), shading, texturing, tessellation, point cloud performance, transmission, path tracing... You simply can't render a water sim or a smoke sim the way you can in blender. Also, learning curve on what? In VFX, archviz, FX, animation, rigging, modeling, lighting... You Your comparison is so ambiguous that you can't apply it to any profession. I think you should focus more and be more specific on what are you comparing, like rendering and lighting, archviz or product rendering. Topics on where you really have an interesting and usable comparison.

Blender UI is so hard your so wrong.

Easy. No versus. Yes COMBO BLENDER 3D multi tool UNREAL ENGINE multi tool THANKS BYE

Blender is ages away of being usable software. Everything is halfbaked or non usable.

A Blender fanboy channel 😂

unreal by miles, imo unreal is way better looking and beginner friendly. I literally modeled by first open world on the first day of using it. Whilst on the other hand, my the first day i used blender i couldn't even operate cause of the old a$$ looking UI. Both programs are amazing after learning but unreal is just on another level when it comes to developing, making cinematics and even just simple environments.

What does "versus" mean? These programs are for a different tasks. Blender -> modelling. UE -> compositing. 🙄

I'm in the minority who found Unreal Engine easier to work with than Blender. I started in Blender, but since I don't create my own assets I can use Unreal Engine to basically do the same thing as I was doing in Blender. Blender effectively is easy to learn the basics of, but once you say "okay I want to make my work stand out and move past this basic point."? Yea that's when Unreal Engine destroys Blender in my opinion. Because in Blender I struggled with comprehension of information, where as in Unreal Engine I struggled with finding the answers, but once I did I could always comprehend everything just fine. And that is a much better boat to be in.

nice, you literally comparing apples to oranges...

What a mediocre discussion just to work as clickbait for beginners. Blender is an incredible tool, but the internet is full of shallow content that only blinds people into using just one program. And unfortunately, the vast majority of these videos are made by Blender users. This video was the last straw since both software have completely different purposes. TL;DR: Learn both and earn money with both. They are different enough not to hinder each other's learning.
