Quote - Well,
I don't care if some other people decided not to upgrade, I have already ordered P8!!!!!!!!!I entered with DAZ Studio 1.X and very soon upgraded to Poser 7 and later bought P6 for $2-74 as a Valentines day special and I do not use P6.
I just can't wait for P8. According to what I have read so far all over various reviews and forums, P8 is not Poser 7. something, but rather like Poser 9 or 10. Just for the better and faster renders alone it is worth it.
Great that you're going to get P8, you will not regret it and really enjoy it once the bugs are gone. I don't agree that P8 is close to 9 or 10, not even remotely. While it has some great improvements, it's imo not worthy of being called P8, we, same really counts for P7 as well. Compared to the price one pays for the upgrade, you get relatively little of new features and improvements. P8 feels more like P7.5. I've looked at it and wasn't prepared to pay the upgrade price for so little new features and improvements, $129 is way to high a price for what's being offered. Now I was lucky enough to have only paid $1.99, otherwise I would have never upgraded.
But, somehow the people owning Poser seem to get away with releasing inbetween upgrades for full upgrade prices. Imo they should scrap all this additional content (especially their new figures) and focus on additional features instead.
Poser 8 is cool, but it sure isn't worthy as the next release, it's another .5 version.

Due to the childish TOS changes, I'm not allowed to link to my other products outside of Rendo anymore :(
Food for thought.....
