Quote - Cassandra quietly surveys the landscape, sighs, and moves on.....

There's more than a few other Greeks up in this piece watching at least with detached interest, but as for me - nothing more than that. Something else is itching at my head, though...

Before I unload it, just one thing to get out first - I intend to buy Poser 9 when it comes out, and I intend to snap up the appropriate DS4 plugins once I get my head used to the new UI.

 

So, let's get out some observations, shall we?

--

I see the same tired old crap from the same, tired lot of ignorant, passive-aggressive, hyper-focused fanboys/fangirls. 

I'd like to make at least one thing clear: In the time I've spent away from the whole thing, I've come to a rather startling conclusion... As long as my shit works the way I want it to, I don't give a rat's anal orifice what tools get used to do it. I stick with D|S because (well, up until DS4), I knew its guts intimately, and it gives me what I want without having a ton of work. OTOH, Poser has its points too - especially with IBL.

As for Genesis, truth be told? Dirt is (at R'otica) that the compatibility will be there, even if it means a Poser-specific figure to do it. I'd link to it directly, but the NannySquad would strike it down based on that link,. So, let's just say that you can find the evidence there if you look in the fora. You see, if anything these days gets made for a figure first, it's gonna be the naughty bits, so those folks who do make the aforementioned bits are supremely interested in compatibility, long before anyone else. 

As for which is better? Allow me to quote Coldrake:

"There is no war. Just a lot of outspoken people and a few annoyingly juvenile "my toy is better than your toy" people, (both Poser and DAZ Studio users)."

And yeah, I agree to this, big-time.

Lookit, campers - in the time I've been away, I've grown the hell up and ceased to care which one is top dog, and prefer to take the best of both as needs apply. If that's possible for me, then it is possible for you.
