+ Huge extension ecosystem and years of tutorials make almost any workflow achievable locally.
− Development has slowed, newer models like Flux need forks (Forge), and setup is fiddly for non-technical users.
+ Gets day-one support for new open models (Flux, Wan, Hunyuan) and lets you wire up any pipeline you can imagine.
− The node graph has a steep learning curve and shared workflows frequently break on missing custom nodes.
+ Custom-trained models keep every generated asset on-style for a specific game.
− Training good models needs a curated dataset and the tool is overkill for solo hobbyists.
+ One-click camera presets (crash zoom, bullet time, FPV) deliver dramatic shots without prompt wrangling.
− Presets dominate the product; free-form control is limited and credits are consumed fast.
+ Aleph lets you edit existing footage with text instructions, which few competitors offer.
− Credits burn fast and clips are limited to roughly 10 seconds per generation.
