Is there a way to only buy / rent / subscribe to sampler?
I noticed that the steam only version is gone, the website here is urging me to subscribe to the whole substance suite, even though I have no use for anything other than sampler.
I find 49,59euros per month to be too much when I only want to use sampler.
What is the solution here?
I mean, I still own a version of bitmap 2 material from a long time ago, I was hoping next time I needed it I could use something more modern.
You don't have to subscribe to the whole substance suite (Modeler, Sampler, Designer, Painter, Stager).
There is also a Substance 3D Texturing plan which has Sampler, Designer & Painter.
Not ideal I know... and from what I am seeing online this has upset a lot of people (hint, hint Adobe... you have not done yourselves any favours at all here! Bring back more flexible options... I see A LOT of people moving away from Substance in favour of competing software. Bad marketing guys!!).

The sales method and price estimate are determined by adobe. I don't know how many people roast about their decision

Did not know about the 3D Texturing plan. That's good to know, thanks, although it was still surprisingly hard to find the plan on adobe's site even after I learned about its existence...

Yeah... funny about that... how it's not straight forward to find the cheaper plans. Not very sporting of Adobe now is it!

I own Substance Painter on Steam and have no use for Designer, so even the Adobe Substance collection is way too much as I'd pay 65.99 CADs a month for Sampler alone, which is crazy from a small business perspective especially on a software that I know would complement Painter amazingly, but that would still be secondary to my business and craft.
It would be great to have Sampler back on Steam (that would be my choice) or even have a sub for Sampler only.
It does not make much sense to only only have the option for a Sampler + Designer + Painter subscription when the last two can be purchased separately on Steam, why not the same treatment for all three and why not a Sampler only sub for those who have the other two sofwares on Steam?
