I personally have never gone (this year will be my first time). I go to one other convention yearly, Wifi access and cell phone access there are fine. I rented a cabin in the middle of the frikin mountains.. guest what? It had wifi (decent too). I can't remember the last time I gamed and didn't have access to the internet. Since subscription models are so obnoxious to you, I suspect you have NO other subscriptions for anything? $25/year is nothing, especially for the benefits it will have. |

I hit 4-6 cons a year. Most have spotty wifi at best. GenCon has nothing at the tables. I do keep my subscriptions to a minimum. The ones that I do have I pay on an annual cycle. LW can confirm this, I am a paying user (I have all paizo sources except the AP stuff) so it's not just the freeloaders complaining. Please note that I am not assuming LW would intentionally cause issues, but rather I was highlighting the risks of SaS.

I also don't think LWD will be making a profit on $25/yr. I can't see how someone can avoid subscriptions, Cable tv, music service, netflix, hulu, gym, hbo, Paizo subscriptions.. |

Discussion of HLO, subscriptions, wifi etc, are more appropriate in the Discussion or HLO forum. Does anyone have any actual detail about PF 2.0 at this stage? Current RPG's: Pathfinder (GM), Pathfinder (Player), Gamma World (GM, Pathfinder homebrew). HeroLab: 3.5 & Pathfinder. HL User Files for PF: Greyhawk Setting, Gamma World (WIP). DM and player of D&D since 1980. |

Go to the Paizo site, they have a lot of previews for it. It's way to early for LWD to start working on it. Come August the playtest will be out, and maybe that will be enough to start the base framework, but I suspect they wait a bit longer than that and try to get a pre-release of the final rules.

I suspect that if you prefer a non-online and non-subscription model, Hero Lab classic will be there for you.
A lot of us will go for both versions. No one is forced to use either model. |

If you play Starfinder than you are forced to use HLO as its the only option. I honestly expect that if you plan to play PF2 that HLO will also be the only option. Happy if I am wrong but I think people should prepare for that answer in 2019.
