I started to buy less at Daz when I found I had little use for the club and thus cancelled my membership of PC.  Just after that Rendo started Prime and I am now a member of that and much happier. That was before Genesis and even after the introduction I still looked on the Daz site but I am afraid the web site re-vamp was the last straw for me.  I guess it must be working by now, I don't know as I do not even browse there anymore.

I deleted the voucher I recently got in an email as I was too busy overspending on the daily 50% sale here.  In fact, if I can find the time I will go to the Daz site and unsubscribe to the emails so to cut down on my in-box.

I am sure there are others that moved to Daz and now spend more there than they did at other sites so I am sure Daz can survive without my custom but I do think that the last year has seen the hobby begin to split into two camps.  As always there will be some with a foot in both camps but for many the trouble of trying to keep updated with both camps will be too much.

Part of me thinks this split is a shame and I could certainly have done without the flame wars that erupted.  Another part of me thinks choice is good and I am pleased that those who want to can use Genesis in Poser in some form. 

If my buying pattern is normal (it would be the only thing about me that was) then V4 did well this Christmas and I fully expect her to have a equally good Christmas in  2013.

 

 

I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 -  Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB  storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU .   The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
