Honestly I'm not sure what opinions on Daz 3D's character releases for the Genesis 3 figure range have to do with a question regarding market demand for Pauline products? Seems a little like flame baiting to me? Which seems to be allowed here as long as it's only directed in one direction. Anyways...

I apologise E, I was just trying to avoid seeing another thread descend into a potential argument that really is OT. I'm really not sure what it is that you're expecting from your comment? If I was to approach this thread in such a way as to point out why Genesis 3 was a better figure than Pauline it would be viewed as OT and flame baiting? Yet, when it's put in a way that places Genesis 3 and Daz 3D negatively, its termed as a 'Good Point!". It would of been just as easy to make your point about a figures racial diversity being a strong factor for market take up, without even mentioning Genesis 3 or Daz 3D negatively, would it not?

Because the "DAZ guys", as you not the least bit patronisingly or divisively describe them, are in a position here where saying something the least bit critical of Poser could see them facing warnings and bans from mods. For creating trouble of course. Plus responding to any direct criticism of Daz 3D's content or Daz Studio could see them facing bans or warnings. Why? For creating an argument from someone's opinion of course.

So the only course left here is, instead of directly responding to negative criticisms or offering counter arguments to them. Is to just call it flame baiting, possibly report it,and then move on. I'm not sure what you would prefer to be honest? Would you prefer a detailed counter argument that is likely to just end up with someone receiving a warning for offering that counter opinion when it descends, as per usual, into an argument? Or are you saying that you feel you should just be able to just say whatever you would like and anyone who disagrees with your opinion is just ruining your vibe here or causing arguments? Even when you are offering an opinion that is directly critical, somewhat negative and likely refutable by others.

"Personally, I don't see what the big deal is with Genesis 3. DAZ keeps cranking out characters every month, but they all look alike to me. Heck, at least make them different races."

In answer to your original question I could of answered, well Daz 3D have released a lot of variation and options for the Genesis figure range. Including Age Variability (Young to Old morphing capability), HD details (Including skin creases and age lines) Weight control (Emaciated to morbidly obese), Character style (Realistic to Cartoon) and also a diverse range of racial characteristics including skin tonal ranged textures and physical characteristics. In fact in my opinion the Daz3D range of figures has more diversity than any other figure currently available in the market, that I can see? Care to point out which race or character type you are not seeing? Maybe I can help you out and point you to a product that would fit your requirements in this area?

But you really don't want to hear that do you? So there is no point that I can see in entering into a discussion about it, especially in a thread about market demand for Pauline content.

Apologies for the rant and going OT.

Razor, I never mentioned you (at all) OR DAZ in a negative or critical way. Certainly, I never referred to you as the "DAZ Guys", I just offered an opinion in response to Boni, who, I point out, was the one who brought up Genesis 3 in this thread, not me. Oh, and I never asked any question, so I really don't need an answer.
