Is Hero Lab Online worth it?

It has? I must have missed something.

What parts of Realm Works have been rolled into HLO? Honestly curious because I have both and would love to have RW merged into HLO - I think RW is a great product and haven't found a real replacement for the functionality it provides.

@Nightstar, I have to ask you to PLEASE STOP with the hyperbole and misinformation. This is causing confusion with other users and cannot continue. Consider this a formal warning.

No, Realm Works is not dead. We've suspended work on it to focus on HLO right now, and we've been able to make massive improvements in short order for HLO because of that focus.

There is VERY LITTLE overlap between RW and HLO. RW focuses on the story. HLO, like HLC, focuses on the characters and game mechanics. There is a tiny bit of overlap, primarily because the use of one product doesn't guarantee the use of the other, but that's out of necessity. So I have no clue what @Nightstar is basing his/her claims on.

Thank you, Rob. RW isn't dead so long as even one person uses it and keeps it alive. Long live Realm Works!

Look, I honestly thought this was the case. I could have sworn I read it here that realm works was canceled, and was being rolled into HLO instead. As on this subject, I was obviously wrong and I apologize for that.
