Quote - > Quote - Oh that I know, And I speak to them about her performance (Yes there is actually a dark underground illuminati where vendors communicate about these things), so we know exactly where she fits in right now. And you are right. V4 will not be used forever, but for right now, she ain't moving.

 

I would think at this point, one of the major keys to any successful POSER figure or replacement of V4 will be backwards compatibility - along with an attractive feminine base and plenty of starting content. Until more people upgrade to P9/P10, any figures that can only function properly in P9+ will have a limited poser audience, regardless of how attractive they are or how much content they launch with.

I am rather curious why there isn't more content available for her than there is especially at her home site. There seems to be more content available here and at RDNA for her than there is at HW.

Backward compatability, 100% agree. "Grey Blob" would not be what it is if it was not backward compatable with existing content. Users would still like to use their investments on a new figure and don't really want to start all over again. (and no, not everybody wants to waste time converting clothing) In terms of selling content, most vendors find it risky selling at a new site that has just started up. So they feel more comfortable selling at their existing stores where they know how its performance is gaged. This way they show support for Dawn in their comfort zone, which will also promote their back catalog. In time, IF hivewire expands, I am sure more and more will try selling there to see how much of the market is active at that store. Also all these recent site hacks are not really helping with customer assurance. And yes, the homesite is very bare, and the in-house team needs to produce more content for her. I know they are a small team, but if you want to make waves, you have to enter the market big with frequent releases.
