The data for your scene objects and textures is clean in C4D. In C4D you can set it up that way, but it’s completely customizable to an astounding degree. It makes sense if you need a bill of materials for a 3000 part CAD product. Other software’s seem to borrow from legacy CAD/Maya style organization which is clunky and limited. The Scene structure and origination, imo is beautifully done. The menu system is incredibly transparent, which is very difficult in such complicated software. While at the same time, it’s capable of making anything anyone does in 3D really. I believe there’s a reason why many consider it the easiest 3D software to learn. TL DR - we can't answer this question, its far far too subjective.Cinema 4D all around feels better optimized. If that's Blender then awesome! If that's C4D then also awesome :D. its more about what enables you as an artist to make what you want easier with less hassle. Neither one is going to be "obviously better overall". But just keep in mind, there are always going to be things that Blender will be better at, and things that C4D will be better at. So if the deformer and effector system feels more intuitive and you want to make mograph animations, then maybe give C4D a shot - motion graphics is what C4D is best at. and you aren't fighting the tool you're using. because then you're focusing more about what to make and less on how to make it. They're tools, and its really much more about what tool feels the most natural for you to use to make art. Its like arguing a watercolour paintbrush is better than an oil paintbrush because it has softer bristles. Only a childish mind would try to argue about which is "better".


People will try to argue that there is, but. Its really about which one you like better, there isn't a quantifiable way to say which is better. In reality, there isn't a good answer to this, since its like asking which pencil is "better". If you have feedback on the subreddit theme, feel free to send /u/Cryptonaut a message.
