>Youtube is full of retards who are poly modelling entire human characters from scratch instead of sculpting them
Imagine learning wrong from the get go and sinking hundreds of hours into doing it wrong and inefficiently. What a nightmare.

I can extrude out a base mesh faster than zbrush loads on your pc

Post your work. If you have nothing to post, it trivially demonstrates they're doing it better and more efficiently than you.

??? you're going to do that work anyway. I guess there's nothing to bake down from but what are you gonna bake down anyway.

op is right sculpting and retopo is a better workflow. You get normal maps, a checkpoint that your can fall back on, and it is easier to get good topology when your don't have to worry about the shape at the same time. People who practice the poly style are doing things the hard way for a worse end result.

If its a human characters you use DAZ if your poor, or character creator if your white.
E33 used character creator > Zbrush (for small fix to make it look just right).

box modeling is better for modeling anthropromorphic pooltoys with large breasts so checkmate

It's because blender's remeshing puts a pipe bomb in your computer, as a treat.

Haven't you been here asking if you should be poly-modelling characters and then turning around and telling others that you should never ever do it every time you get told to do it for more than a year at this point?
