Quote - I think the scenario of DAZ buying Poser is highly unlikely.
A few days ago DAZ ran a huge sale on V4 and M4 stuff, calling it "cleaning house" or something like that. It could have been a sales tactic, but it made me worry. The discounts were good though, but I couldn't help wondering if they were serious about the cleaning house part of it, and if it meant that support for V4 and M4 would be discontinued any time soon.
A Daz team member assured us that the cleaning was nothing more then a sale name and not an actual removal of the items from the store. As they still have older stuff for the previous generations for sale I do not see them getting rid of the products anytime soon. But I did whittle down my wishlist from the store though, making progress feels great. lol
I just got Dawn's base figure recently, mainly because I am a doofus and failed to realize that Studio could run the figure even if I did not have an updated version of Poser to do so. But she seems decent enough, and from what I am seeing there are some good products including some great freebies, being released for her and the character sets are getting better. No disrespect intended.
At the time though I have not really used her much, been buying up my gen 4 wishlist stuff, working on upgrading to Gen 2 male, and needing to upgrade my Poser so she is falling back on my priority list.
There is just too much going on now, it was a ton easier when we didn't have to scatter our resources so much.
Hopefully she gains ground and starts to make a difference in the community.
