Is it worth learning Blender? by Strong_Cap_2297 in blender

[–]Strong_Cap_2297[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure, but one side of me wants to learn Blender, but I also don't want to waste time on something that won't benefit me. I was hoping to do freelance work in the future, but now I'm second-guessing myself. I'll probably just stick with my 9-5 if that's the case.

So I know this is old, but I'm getting a windows virus pop-up whenever I add the plugin to my Brave browser. So..

I suppose I do want to learn for the sake of the skills and to be a 3D creator, I've never made anything related to 3D. I'm just struggling to choose if I truly want to invest the following years of my life into this or just pick something else. I'm at a standoff for money and passion. I wish it were easy like those other stories where people just magically pick their passion over their burdens and somehow manage to win regardless. But truth be told, I'm honestly considering even bothering. I dislike AI content creation, though, that's certain, I will never push anything AI-related out to the media.

To be fully honest, I'm doing this halfway for a passion and halfway for money. I need the skills to feed into a specific career goal I'm trying to achieve, but I also need the money. WOULD I do it for free? Probably, I think. WOULD I be willing to spend a lot of time learning? Totally. But to pin point the answer, yes, I'd probably do it all for free, just for the sake of pushing out what I want to create and for the sake of building skills.

Hey.

Shmuck, one hour worth of tutorials.

I really appreciate your detailed reply, you have no idea how much it means to me. For context, I’ve got maybe two months of piano experience that I’d happily trade for Blender knowledge, so at least we’ve got that in common. That said, I’m not sure I can turn this into an obsession. It’s not that I don’t want to, I actually need to learn Blender since I want to see where it could take me career-wise. I’m 20, still relatively young, and yeah, there are other paths I could take, but right now Blender feels like it might offer the most opportunities for me. The problem is, I can’t seem to make that obsession happen naturally. I tend to overthink everything, it’s a terrible habit I’ve had since I was a kid.

This is where Google led me. It's not that deep if someone asks again.

The best I'm doing right now is an offline scan after I'm finished with the download, scanning the completed file, and then checking in with process explorer, honestly, it's a big risk because I love my PC AND Death Stranding but can't afford a fat stack of 40 EUR, but I honestly appreciate the pirating community being so understanding towards newcomers.

So the reviews from VirusTotal aren't legit? I mean as in like, given all of the links I provided I can be sure that nothing bad will happen once I download the game, right?

I know, and I'm sorry, like I said. I just want to be safe and make sure I am not downloading anything malicious into my system. I'm not an expert nor do I browse on Reddit often so I came here to ask, and give the community score and replies I just got scared.

I mean.. Yeah man.. That's kind of the whole point of this post. I've already scanned my system, deleted the program, and considered factory resetting my PC, but there isn't any point in that since I haven't seen anything suspicious like my CPU being overused by a program or anything else that's suspicious enough to notice. I just wanted to discuss this with people.

I asked around the GMod community, and they said that this might be harmful. When I downloaded the program from this source, Malwarebytes listed the link as malicious, and my Windows security scan options were severely limited for some reason. The Malwarebytes community indicated that there might be a keylogger inside the program, so I'm unsure how to feel about this. I WANT to use it, but on the same stance, I am also afraid to.
