Gotta agree with lmckenzie's 'gut feeling' about the Poser/DAZ community and the need for better native characters.

All the Poser figures... P4 to DAZ Gen4 have tons and tons of content. And I'm way addicted to the Poser material room. So, it'd take something phenomonal ( more than a little better bending than V4 which I can postwork ) to invest in the new DAZ figures.

That said, even though this kinda splits the buyer population, the 'built for newbies' approach of DAZ Studio and Genesis will probably pull a lot of future customers their direction.

Ironically, this 'split' may cause the Poser community to return to being fully involved in group projects like Antonia... and independent figures made to be fully functional in Poser. Like the old days when everyone was making stuff for Posette.
