My only gripe with it is the high CPU cost.

Is pigments worth getting for $69? I mainly use Diva because I like the fat and analog style sound.

Yes, it's a steal at that price.

Pigments is nothing like Diva.

is there a way it always is showing the extended gui? i always need to click one or 2 times here... annoying :/

I believe that is caused by the magnification level you're using. I found this in the manual:

Click it, and Pigments will resize and re-center the window, making the most of your
available screen space.
If you still can't see everything at the same time then you may want to select a smaller
magnification value using the Resize Window option in the Main Menu [p.17]. Naturally there's
a balance to be struck: Resizing the Pigments window can prevent the need to scroll the
window up and down, but it also may be harder to read some of the smaller text.

same resize shambles here (in logic)
actually it sometimes opens fine, i.e.: in the correct saved size, only
to resize automatically in a completely cropped unusable smaller window
kind of strange
introduced aongside the new eternity-startup-wait-time something around last summer (v3.2something)

I love these synths with small prices. Falcon or pigments, which would be a better soundset

Yes.

Yes, if you get Pigments, and think it could be the same as Diva, you will probably be disappointed. On the other hand, if you get Diva, and think it could be the same as Pigments, you will probably be disappointed too. Apples and oranges. Both synths probably complement each other well, Diva for analog stuff, Pigments for spaced out wavetable stuff.

In terms of filters and oscillators possibly Pigments, but Falcon has a much bigger range of arps, built in effects, more layering (you can have multiple independent layers with different MIDI channel inputs and audio outputs) and a more capable sampler plus that large number of expansions that can add some pretty nice pre-built sounds to layer on.
I got both because I'm a magpie for these things, but YMMV.

Download the demo and decide for yourself.

For me, it's absolutely, positively worth it.
It's not fat/analog sound though.
