As you can see, I do vote with my wallet online, just as I would in the real world.
Some weeks ago I sat down and looked at the cost of PC membership, comparing with my purchase at DAZ. Due to CC limitations, I have to use the monthly membership, or about eight dollars per month. Over a six month period, my total purchases, most of which were not PC items, came to about half what I had paid for PC membership.
Looking at the new items as they come out, and realizing I'm a COF, I also realized that I had seen nothing released that brought more than a yawn.
Studio 4 gets one more hour today, but the outcome is already predetermined, it offers nothing I can't do with other software except use the genesis figure, and the price of V5 is high enough I'm not interested. Studio 4 is probably the slowest of all the programs I have, and is anything but convenient to use.
The DAZ poser forum, disappointing, very little posted, and it appears most of the threads there were pulled from other forums to pad it. Not going to bother with it anymore.
DAZ needs to stop and look at what's happening in other places besides DAZ and realize they're one of many and there are other systems that are gaining on their figures. I've cancelled my PC membership, pulled my CC out, there are other places, most of which offer clothing more suited to my needs (wishes) than the offerings at DAZ. That is something I can't blame DAZ for, the PA's will make what they want to and hope it sells. Being a PoserWorld "lifer", I can still find most of what I need.
The direction they're going as of now is leading them to a dead end. I'm willing to stand on the side and watch.
