I think so, I was chatting with Eugene on his question (which I quoted) about whether HE in C4D would be a good alternative to Softimage ICE for a freelancer. Which is why I also mentioned Thinking Particles - not only because it's graph based particles system, but because it's directly in the app like ICE. This has nothing to do with debating the HE concept or use in studios. From the other replies I think the comment was well understood. Replies from Cristobal and others that add more information are very appreciated. The fact that HE assets authoring requires also using Houdini is not speculation and it's kind of critical to the discussion for an individual, and not a slam on the platform.
