Quote - I'm getting tired of all this Daz hate. Lemme state some facts. Genesis1 is a huge success, regardless what the haters and doubters say. Hence why Daz decided to enhance the platform so early. Genesis2's release has nothing to do with Genesis1 being a failure. Genesis2 is more of an addition that a replacement. Each figure serves a different function. And based on current PA sales for it, it is already taking off in a big way. And no Daz is not silly, they know exactly what they are doing. It was a risk but it is paying off. They have the marketing capabilities to ensure that happens. Don't take what people post in threads as a general picture of their situation. Some of those who post are often very emotional and are posted without looking at facts and base comments on speculation or biased opinions, fear and hate. (And those who actually post are a very small percentage of the entire market anyways)

Bottom line, Genesis is a success, Daz knows it, us PA's that work closely with them know it as well, so it doesn't really matter if people bash them and speculate their doom and failure. We know the actual situation and that is all that matters really. So hate and bash all you want, it isn't going to change anything, maybe it will make you feel better, but in fact it just creates more of a divide and is not going to make this Dawn figure any more apealling to the mass market. Both sides have to work together if she is to stand a chance. You just look ignorant when the outcome doesn't go as you predicted. OO Antonia is it..no wait, My Michelle is it, no wait Roxy is it....please...V4 keeps smiling. Fanboy type comments without any decent research. And I don't care if I upset some people with this post. I am angry with the maturity level that some people actually have. The comments in this thread are filled with hate and anti Daz comments. It's former Daz people making this Dawn figure by the way. So why hate? Oh yes, sour grapes all because SM wont adopt Genesis, but let's blame Daz for making an improvement while SM are quite happy sitting on their ass just letting users use V4 that is over 7 years old. And also no PA is leaving Daz, they are just helping out old friends. Most PA's sell at different stores anyways. Also I havent heard of any SM developer actually stepping up to support Dawn, makes you wonder who actually gives a damn about you at all.

 

Accept it is not SM forcing users to use a 7 year old figure, Poser users are doing by choice because they do not like the alternative.  Does that stop Genesis being a success, No.  Does that mean we all hate Daz, No.  Does that make Poser users hate all daz users No. 

You can say what you like about the success or not of Genesis, I don't really care and would not take it on the word of just Genesis vendors if I was.

The buzz from Dawn appears to be more about a company that may be interested in looking after customers than just a figure.

Now lots of peoples wish list at Daz are looking quite slim.  The fault of Genesis NO, the fault of Daz haters No.  Go figure, but I know what is exciting me at the monent and it is not Genesis in any form.  No emotions, no hate just looking to spend my money somewhere that will provide what I want.
