  Tech making development faster/easier. Not every game is cutting edge technology. A lot of great games doesn't necessarily have cutting edge visual either. Different game engines have different ways of facilitating game development. Then there's softwares that can be used to plug in those engines to further cut cost by just purchasing a solution.

• I want to get into 3D Modeling. I need alternatives for this.

  Zbrush is the gold standard and it's not cheap. It has recently switched to subscription only. Zbrush also offers a stripped down free version for beginners and dabblers called Zbrush Core Mini.
