OK, so I am exaggerating, but if like me you are only a part-time worshipper of Victoria, it's been a frustrating few recent weeks in Platinum Club-land. I haven't upgraded to Victoria 3 because I don't think my computer can handle her, and don't currently want to re-invest, after having spent a few hundred dollars on V2 items. I know, that's my problem, but still, it's not like V2 was released ten years ago, or even five... I'm well aware that all things Victoria keep DAZ alive, and don't wish to bash them or their star product. I'm also one of the people who must recognize that the membership fee for Plat Club "paid for itself" over the course of several purchases, most of which I'm happy with. Still, I feel a need to vent in hopes that it will relieve my petty frustration. The regular marketplace is fine. There's still a diversity of new products being released (love the dinos,) and the introductory sale prices are appreciated. But being the budget-minded student that I am, I can't help but be especially excited about Plat Club items, since they're totally affordable. I humbly suggest to DAZ that there would, especially at this point, be no harm in releasing V2 compatable versions of the newer V3 items. That way, the V3-deprived among us might not be so frustrated at feeling left behind, and the company could potentially enjoy greater profits. I understand the business concept that says that more people will upgrade to V3 in lieu of cross-Vicky items, but want to make a case for those of us who, at present, can't upgrade for whatever reasons. End of rant. Thank you for reading. Sorry for whining. I will go away now.
