Of course you are speaking about things you doesnt know.
Have you ever launched one of thos professional 3D software you are speaking ? i doubt, well yes, maybe im wrong, maybe you have installed like 3DSMax and made humm ... a teapot~
If you want me to explain how dumb you are, lets go for it.
You are barely making the mix between a 3D Modeler software and a 3D World/Object editor, when sorry, its two different software. WHERE the hell on earth did you heard you could make a game with one of the professionnal software you are speaking about ? Damn, i bet you wouldnt been able to say me three of those 3D professionnal software (3DStudio Max, Alias Wavefront, Softimage, ...). You know, game modeling and scene modeling is two different worlds ?
Game Modeling consist mainly in low-poly modeling (And yes, sorry, but even HL2 is low poly modeling) when polycount ALWAYS have to be taken in count, instead like scene modeling, where polycount is never taken in count. In Game Modeling, do you need like, the last build of Softimage ? Hell no, poser, milkshape (Hi Richardo), Gmax is way enough, because for game modeling, you will never fully use profesionnal 3D software and all their useless functions, because all those software are more oriented in scene modeling and 3D movie animation than game modeling. For game modeling, you only need a 3D modeler that allow you to make poly, UV, bones, animation, thats all.
You are also dumb, because you are dumb enough to assimilate OpenZone to "any other noobie eqemu 3d 'construction set'", man, Did you EVER launched OpenZone and tried to use it more than at least an hour ? Where did you getOpenZone was a somewhat 3D Modeling software ? Because sorry to say you this, but software like OpenZone are been used everyday by company making games. And of course, if one day, someone will take the time to remodel EQ, it will have to use one of the "noobie eqemu 3d 'construction set'" you are speaking about.
Do i needed to first make a long post like this to defend like you are saying my "point out facts, logic, and reason to explain my opinion", dude, wake up, its not an opinion, its reality, and you, you are still dreaming.
PS : Oh btw, in this post i flamed you, but you so must asked for it, sorry.
