"if V4 is so great - why are you now almost fully using G2."
Fair question Esther. First it is not that V4 (and her DECADE of fixes& enhancements) is so "great" per se.
It is just that no other figure has offered the desirable combination of versatility( ethnically & species wise),improved performance in animation ,better overall user experience and broad, top tier vendor content support..until G1-G2 etc.
As a vendor myself I am curious how the new figure will offer opportunies for new innovative content tech going forward for vendors.
For example if the process of converting V4 clothing is actually better than "d*cking around in the fitting room" that is great.
But more details on this process ,such as its dependancy on external tools VS poser pro native tools , should be explained, in detail ,IMHO.
But I must ask the question; If all V4 content can be refitted with the ease implied by the figure maker then what is the incentive for people to buy new Content made specifically for the figure??.
Would it not make better economic sense to spent the next year after its release, trying out all of the V4 clothing before spending more money??.
And this still ties the figures fortunes to the aged V4 in a substantial way at any rate
These and other Small market realities, too numerous to mention, are why I dont see how this figure offers any subtantial long term shift in the current paradigm.
Just one man's measured & unemotional opinion.
