There was something so special and powerful about Affinity Designer V1. It was just a supreme amount of value and such a robust application that it became the tool I learned to do graphic design on, and the tool I loved.
I feel like something slipped with Designer V2 - the features went a bit weird and broad, and the amount of bugs got irritating and eroded my love for it and it being my go-to recommendation.
That all said, it’s still good software today and I’m glad the Serif team gets some kind of payday. I think the drop in quality of V2 makes the whole thing a bit less bittersweet for me.
- WillAdams 3y agoThe sad thing is that much of what was really nice in AD came from copying Aldus/Altsys/Macromedia Freehand. I wish Adobe had at least put all of Freehand's capabilities into InDesign --- I might still be using it if that were the case.
