Huh? Where?
I been modeling the same way for decades so,what change? :o
It's a lot more expensive than it was even 10 or 20 years ago. There's DCC and sound, great if you can afford it, then the cost of everything else has skyrocketed. Would you have ever been presented with the chance to spend over $500 for an engine or $6,000 for one model back then, no matter how finely detailed?... That's what has changed.
Nobody's crying about it here, if someone has the wherewithal and the desire to spend that kind of money, all the best to them. For the rest of us, we can only shake our heads and wonder what it would be like to have those kind of resources.
I've always thought this was an interesting thread, even though it took a few turns.
