Imagine the legal hurdles here. Always online requires servers. Servers are hosted by LWD. Which means the way they have legally got around their license shortcomings by getting the Community to fill the void is suddenly not possible. Rob is a smart man so I'm sure he has some ideas but this is dangerous territory.

Yes, too bad D&D Beyond got a licence from Wizards, which is likely the main reason why LW didn't. Even if/when LW do a port of 5E from Classic to HLO, it can still only be a SRD version, which (almost) no-one will want without an editor to recreate the community pack. Hopefully, that can again work the same way (legally), even being online.

This puts a massive dampener in their original plans for HLO, to try and replace HLC. Farling Author of the Realm Works Import tool, Realm Works Output tool and Realm Works to Foundry module Donations gratefully received via Patreon, Ko-Fi or Paypal |
