Well i use Blender for all my modeling animation.
It's a gret great tool for people who have succeed to learn the interface , that is easy once you've understood it

The 3D engine in it ahev very good 3D basic engine that allow great things.
you have two levels :
-programming with graphic blocks for pure "D artists
-use python script for advanced things.

lot of great game demos can be found on forums don't hesitate to try some
and you'll be amazed how the engine works so well

forum for demos

for prototyping, small games, it's great

Yeah, hopefully it will develop into a proper tool for game creation.
For Blender modellers the workflow could be outstanding.

However obvously Blender is not suitable for level editing yet.
One of the Apricot developers said:

Blender is the best 3d modelling program on the world. But thats well known. What about the level editor ? Horrible




But during the development of Apricot Blenders capabilities in this area will probably be improved.

this statement by the apricot developer wasn't really meant seriously. blender isn't more horrible than any other 3d program for level editing. i used it for level editing a lot. they will improve camera navigation (walk or fly mode maybe with collision detection and such things) for huge worlds though.

They should implement a GUI for humans first. Current GUI is the proof that aliens exists

thought same at first

if i use blender for 3-4 days and then go back to max it takes some time get the control of interface, same applies to max to blender.

They should be using more human-friendly interface and more generic controls (max,maya,wed,med,milkshape,fragmotion are similiar, humans use them.) Blender can be smiliar too. (i said this to blender user and she replied: then get the source and make your self a max-like blender.)

I tried to learn python and tried to convince myself to use it, but I can't, I don't like it.

I did use blender as a game engine and even if the node system look promosing it remains at the end limited. Python is great easy to use but still limited.

i've gotta say, i don't like the way max's interface works. not compared to blender's interface.

i can't imagine why anyone would not like blender's interface -- nothing overlaps, everything is laid-out well. it's really really intuitive once you learn the basics.

i can't wait to see apricot.

you should try modo's one or maybe maya ... blender interface is a way too weird. But I still looking forward apricot improvement.
