Not gonna fisk too much, promise.
And yep - I remember ye.
Hopefully Rendo gets the picture from their sales what has happened to/with Poser and they aren't in a state of denial. I find it amazing how people continue to blame everything and everyone else for the current situation.
You do have to remember - most of the folks in the threads that you (rightfully or no) point the finger at are not Rendo. I've given Bondware and Renderosity a metric ton or three of crap over the years, but they have managed to remain solvent all this time, so I don't go around assuming they're stupid (well, not for the past 10-12 years or so.)
I perfectly understand their motivations for buying Poser, and I actually think it's a smart move on their part. But - they did buy themselves a job.
Once they get things right and stable, this thread of wishlists will (might?) come in handy, so long as the market at large doesn't shift.
I find it particularly troubling that often the vendors are blamed for the situation, and for "following the money".
Vendors gonna vend. Some vendors are mad at that fact. Okay... no skin offa mine.
I did some dredging today through approximately a zillion Vicky 4 freebies... okay, not a zillion, but holy damn enough that I'd never have to buy an item of clothing if Vicky 4 was all I had and the budget sucked. This is something Poser (and LaFemme, etc) are going to have to contend with.
