can't you just read the documentation or watch youtube videos like a normal person?

>>1024255
But what if theres valuable information or an explanation that works better for me to learn?

>>1024265
That's fair. A review will tell you that, but it's more likely to happen for more specialized books you'd read once you already know the generic aspects, like there's one on game character rigging that's full of cool tricks

>>1024255
documentation only helps if you know exactly what you are looking for, which someone looking at 'learn blender 5' is not going to know, and youtube pads the fuck out of videos for ad revenue, more complex topics get far less padding, but again, going over basics is going to pad the fuck out of it.

largely you have

1) documentation, if you know you know

2) book/paid course, right to what you need, usually in a way that you can find what you want even if you are new

3) youtube, a pool of piss with some pockets of water, but another need to know to know

anyone selling training is a scammer by default
AI is the future, and selling courses is like selling shovels during the gold rush but the gold is all gone and worthless

>>1024427
AI is retarded and soulless junk.

>>1024427
AI is only for shitposting and porn

U don't need them Anon-kun. Bernd can recommend pic related. Pro tip: Get the e-books on Gumroad, and youwill receive a lot of bonus material. :3

the piles of tutorial slop is one of the worst things about blender

>>1024255
for some reason almost every video about blender is always several years old and out of date

>>1025067
Hardly enough has changed fundamentally that would make tutorials completely out of date for a very long time. This is just misinformation

Fuck off tranny, slipped it's way into /3/ from /a/

>>1025127
Not entirely true. I started learning blender a couple of months back and they changed/moved/renamed a bunch of stuff between 4.5 and 5.0. not a lot but enough it's made a lot of older tutorials broken and obsolete

i find it funny how this book is about learning to use a creative software yet the cover image is AI

I know some things have changed, but it's not enough to ruin tutorials. You do a 2 second search and find out what moved. Everything in 3D requires search skills and self reliance, if that stops you, you were never going to make it anyway.

Fuck off you faggy twink, this isn't needed.

>>1025173
Every trained skill is like that, you've obviously never learned to do anything in your life if you think being able to search for more knowledge isn't needed

>>1025136
that's what you get for using tutorialware that is shilled by ppl monetizing tutorials
