several things actually

  1. The origional Poser figures had flaws. The origional DAZ figures had less flaws.

  2. Poser figures are free. Dazz figures cost dollars.

  3. What one gets for free is often neglected. What one pays for is taken more care of..(or one regrest the buy) One seeks justification for the dollars spend.

Then the show OFF.

Others want to be able to do the same. Too lazy, or do not want to invest the time it takes,  to morph the origional Poser figures, So only the BUY option gets it.

10 dollar, 100 dollar, oeps this is getting out of hand?  The justification?

Better make something, but I need???

But, you need the hair too, the clothes too, and a marked gets created.>

Others see the profit, and jump in on the dollarmaking-game.

Once the ball is loose, there is no stopping it.

Me? I never, or very rarely BUY something. (Ibought 3 LO Res figures, and regret it.)

No V's in this house. None, never-ever.

Then the hypes? The sale arguments?

The ridiculous poly count.

Untill some of us discover that polycount is just that ; a hype. A sales argument. Nothing, and absolutely nothing more.

But, most have already way too many $$$ invested to drop out.
So, the hype goes on.

idealy, a figure has 20 to 25K polys, the rest is pollution.

Posette, Judy, Alyson Lo Res, fit the bill very  fine, thanks.

I"ll morph them and build my own Victory's.
Also, the CPu likes them, the render engine likes them, the memory likes them.

it is like megapixel camera's.

Not noticed yet that some market leaders are coming back down??? to 10 - 15 megapixels...

With a good lens, it is all one needs.

just my 2 cents.
