Lol. And here we are again.
A lot of huffin and puffin and the same old boring truisms.

So predictable.

It's amazing how fiercly some people here defend the status quo.

What are you afraid of ?
If DAZ or EF or another party would issue a mesh that if you load it into Poser would look as real as THIS:

or THIS:

Do you think all Poserverse would just collapse ?

Do you think such a mesh, a mesh with CORRECT proportions, CORRECT joints, CORRECT musculature and CORRECT facial structure and expressions would drive people away from Poser ?

Look up FS gallery.
He already did V3 faces that are on par with the examples I've shown.
What we need now is a matching body.
A body that shows the same grade of realism.

And it would be better for everybody if DAZ would issue such a mesh because they get the more support from other merchants than everybody else.

Shrugs.
You can't stop progress.
(Another hollow truism. Are you taking notes, Xeno ?. Lol)

MIKI has perfect realistic proportions and she sold like hotcakes.
So no, realism is neither "bad for buisiness" nor does it hamper "artistic expression".

But hey, it's not my loss. There are already enough excellent meshes out there to modify and improve so that they can meet my standards.

It just would have been nice if V4 had made a lot of those homemade mods unnecessary.
But she's just more "same old, same old", trying to put the wool over the eyes of the community.

Take note Xeno, here comes another truism:
"You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink."

:rolleyes:
