it's almost an exact copy of octane in many ways, just 10x as expensive.

Personally I think Octane will be much better in many ways compared with Arion render... the main difference now is developing timeframe. I'm sure they've been working on it for more time and with more people.

I trust in Octane!

It has been criticized everywhere for the lack of demo, li, very stupid move what for? avoid piracy? Have a 'Everyday user' price and you'll beat them up...
