I gotta say, not to hijack the thread or anything, but I am having so much fun in Substance, and not missing any of the content I am not getting by not having the Adobe account*. 2 days left to get a perp license for 77 pound or equivalents; not often you see value like that...
* except possibly some brush functionality. A lot of the brushes you get in Substance are Photoshop ones, so if you don't have that, you get little helpful warnings about what won't work about them, example below. It doesn't seem to stop them being functionally useful however...
