AS far as I can tell this is the first time Poser, it’s marketplace, figures, and community forums are under one roof. At this point Bondware is prepared to compete with Daz on it’s own terms. I would think that Bondware was as concerned by it’s dependance on Daz as Daz was when it created Studio. Rendo is a content shop, I would expect them to focus on content and figures for the software because SMs software focus was outdated and content is Rendo’s specialty.
We’re down to two platforms run by two different companies competing directly with each other. IOS vs Android, PC vs Mac, Pepsi vs Coke.
Not quite. Rendo's already said that they intend to keep supporting the Genesis figures. That's in contrast to what DAZ appears to want. And by that I merely mean that DAZ only supports the Genesis figures and Studio.And there are still other players who have a vested interest in the market, Hivewire, Renderotica, CG Bytes, and other smaller outlets.
What companies say they’ll do and what they actually do can be two different things. Hivewire recently dropped products that didn’t support its own IP. Rendo will need to push it’s platform through content which puts it in competition with Daz.
