Asking for 100$+ every year for this program with minimal additions and fixes will bury it more and more every day. Content creators need to find buyers who will need to buy the program first. As I heard, there is only one developer left to work on poser. It could be false but I will believe it as I see the progress. 

At an age we got all the game engines and 3D programs for free, making your own program which got minimal support/updates/new stuff "paid" is just the worst marketing you can do. Adobe can do that, but poser can't. This is milking a cow corpse, which will not work as we see. 

I don't count that we don't have a proper tutorial about animating. I am animating for 20 years with poser and I still did not see any animating tutorial more than waving hands sinse. 

Furthermore, I still use V4, and I will use her forever, as there is no content for the new models.

I am using Poser 11, as it's nearly rock solid for animating as it just does not crash at all with animate window. Poser 11+ and 12 crashes when you just skip frames a bit faster.

In the end, there is exactly no reason to get Poser if you already use it for 20 years and too old and lazy to learn Blender even Daz.
