I agree, animation in Poser is way behind the times.  Every time a new release is announced and we get that list of new features I'm in constant disbelief.  We get new animation stuff but it never seems to be anything worthwhile or something that works in front of your eyes.  Animation needs visual feedback on the fly.

At the very least I think we need something like this in Poser, because seriously, if that Walk Designer survives 'as is' for another release then Poser is well and truly off limits for animation (for me anyway).

We at least need something like this:
Click for animation done the easy way - A Motion Modifier System

As per the title of the thread, if it turns out the Poser userbase is shrinking, sure, it might have something to do with the severe lack of modern animation features.  I love Poser, always have, but the animation side of it is an absolute joke (to put it as politely as I can).  That video shows just how much Poser is lacking in the animation department.
