metahuman is automatically disqualified because you can't make nice looking women bodies imo. They are almost comically flat in all the areas that matter. I can't even understand how they expect to compete with CC3 or Daz on that front. It's the reason I and many other devs wont use metahuman. Can't just make nice bodies and export to marvelous designer for custom clothes etc. Metahuman is so limiting yet could easily already be the standard by making easy changes.

That won't be an issue this way, right? Edit 3: Anyone tried importing an actual humanoid monstrosity?
