Dear Otoy
So Ive been using Octane since before V1.0, I've bought every update until subscription became mandatory to get new features. I remember the days where I bought a X99 system so I can have 4x GTX 780TI cards running at once. It was a good time in Octane. Sad thing nowadays is that If I don't spend the equivalent of a new GPU in value a year I cant even use more than one GPU at a time. Now I understand that people at Otoy need to make a living, and that things change when you expand your business into more branches and that creates more opportunities and the need for more resources. The Only Logic I cannot understand, I have two RTX 2080 TI cards atm... these was not cheap at all, now I will be forced to buy a RTX 3090 to benefit from faster renders, either that or I buy a subscription. The time has come where I actually get faster renders with Iray due to the fact that it will utilize as many GPU's as I can throw at it. I am so comfortable with Octane, but I cant help but feel some greed in limiting the users from using the hard earned hardware. why not rather make it so feature rich that I want to support Octanerender, rather than try and force me to subscribe by disabling me from using my hardware to their full extend. I feel dismayed that I am worse off now than I did when I first started, At least make the last paid version of Octanerender have the same support for hardware it had when it first came out.
Yours faithfully,
Disappointed
