Ultimately, PF1 is still available on HLC with pretty amazing functionality. LW have guaranteed us that when it lands on HLO, we will be able to migrate across for no extra cost. In the meantime, there is massive activity with PF2 playtest which a lot of us need support for.

As for slating RW, well I personally have yet to pay any subscription fee and have now run 6 campaigns using the software, which is extremely useful. Have patience and I am sure that eventually, all will come to pass.....

Farling is correct, there will be a one-time fee of about $20 to migrate your content from Hero Lab over to Hero Lab Online.
 
Rone is correct. It is also important to note that when your content is replicated in HLO it will still be available in the Classic version of the software. So you won't lose what you previously owned. :)
 
Out of curiosity, after the transfer, if we buy a new PF1 package, will it apply only to HLC, only to HLO, or to both?
 
Apologies, I meant that their would be no extra charge for the content already owned (after the initial fee all other content will transfer).

This is correct yes?

There is no scaling rent based on the amount of stuff that you purchased. After each one-off fee to purchase a new data package (on both HLC and HLO), there is only the single flat fee for continued access to the service.

I'd rather use HLC for Starfinder. The "enhancements" which aren't even finished yet are of no interest to me. I need exactly what HLC can do, just doing it for Starfinder.

They originally said it would be about $20 and include 6 months of server access. Not sure if this is correct anymore but 6 months of access will cost about $15 so net $5. They haven't started charging for access yet either.

The $20 transfer fee is separate from the cost to buy HLO in the first place, and it is buying HLO which provides 6 months access, not the transfer fee.
 
They need to get PF2 and Starfinder fully functional before they think about adding other systems.

Besides, I'm not ready to give up on my desktop or Ipad apps yet. Without allowances for custom content PF1 on HLO would be useless to me.
 
I'm not a real big fan of online only software. It seems whenever you need it, it's not accessible or down for maintenance. I've been playing in a PF2 game since the book came out and finally bit the bullet today and bought PF2 Online. Go to create a character and 20 minutes in server goes down for maintenance! I think someone is telling me something...
