The tutorials are very informative. I feel that they very clearly show how these figures are intended to be used.

I grant you that without that information and possibly a limited understanding of topics such as Normal Mapping, it would be very easy to just point the finger and wonder what is going on.

Sadly even when the information is available there will still be those who stick tenaciously to their original end of the stick and wave it wildly in the air.

Poser Pro comes with all the legacy content back to Poser 4. I do not feel that these figures will make or break it. They are just one part of a very large library of content. Yes there will be those that totally fail to understand their purpose. Some of those folks will be highly vocal, such is life.
