Quote - With Octane you don't have to wait 20 min to see the result of a parameter tweak, you see it in real time. So every tom, dick and harry can get great result with this render that do the work of 10-15 computers in a render farm.

That is such things my mind muses of when I see the enormeous time and effort bagginsbill lay down in his renders. 

to me that seems more like a sport, to get the most out of Poser's render engine (like jpf does, for example)

for realism there are faster - and easier - ways nowadays.
