Just to make sure we are comparing apples to apples, what do you consider a true VTT. If you mean some of the concepts that are using RFD chips to identify what is on the table and shows you what you can see, how far you can move, and blurs the lines between a PNP RPG and a video game, I completely agree that this will never be that. Nor would I want it to be.

I could be wrong, but I believe the vision of RW is to be used with a projection system during game play. To give you a 2D dumb image that is revealed in real time. A lot of work has been done to prevent meta gaming. IIRC the player version is to be used in and out of game, and has DM messaging capabilities.

My fear is that if RW does not have the capability of effectively hiding secrets; (Secret doors, concealed doors, and traps); then it is less useful in game. It would be a fancy personalized wiki of your campaign. I see far more potential in this program than that.
