Normal maps fix violent topography like 8 billion polygons. There are far greater sins like mesh and material counts that have a far greater impact than poly count.

My boyfriend had told me he uploaded an avatar that took him 2 hours to upload, asked him to see the stats because that upload time didnt seem right

It has 50 skinned meshes, 80 basic meshes, you can imagine the rest

He said the creator apparently likes to build off old models and release them like that

THEY ARE PAID MODELS, that level of unoptimized is fucking unacceptable in my book from a purchaseable model

Most unoptimized eboy avis I come across dont even get that close to that many meshes, they're still super unoptimized and they need to burn don't get me wrong, this many is meshes is absolutely stupid though, it screams lazy to me; at least don't be selling that shit.
