Wouldn't that be a lack of content issue then? 

It does seem a bit more difficult to find quality scene builder content than clothing and accessories, but rooms and various props like that are still out there, if you can't build it yourself.

And as for rendering, PP2012 and 2014 are capable of producing some very nice, quality renders without the need for external rendering apps. It's really all in the material settings and light setups that you use.

Still kind of confused at what the issue is.

However there does seem to be an overall fade in the active community lately. Pretty much its boiled down to just a handful of the same people participating in the forums on a daily basis. That of course is no way to judge how much Poser is still being used, since plenty of content is still being made for the MPs.
