Maybe I'm turning into an old guy that doesn't understand the new generation, but I don't see the appeal. A VTT like Roll20 or even something with a higher learning curve like Fantasy Grounds seems...

Yes, I'm sure it will move slowly. Good to know that d20pro is in talks with WoTC. Gives me hope for HL and RW.

If I were to play or run an on-line game, I would consider Fantasy Grounds, but I just didn't see the need for it for at-table gaming. Even if running a game online, I worry that FG would be just too...

I'm running a campaign in a world I'm creating myself, and RW was the best product for me to manage it. But if I were interested in running WoTC's canned adventure paths, I would definitely consider...

Well, I doubt that WoTC is going to let LWD sell their content for less than FG. Personally, while—yes—it is overpriced given that I already bought the hardcover books, but I would still pay because...

Kinda wish I didn't write the bit about attracting PF users. I didn't mean to start 5e vs. PF debate. Each to their own.

I like 5e and have built a custom world based on it, so I'm invested in...

I find it hard to believe that LW is being hardheaded. Even if LW make little to no profit from the WoTC IP, having that content available would lead to more sales of HL and RW.

I suspect that...

I didn't realize that HL was the "official" character builder of Pathfinder. What makes it official? Is it the only character generator that Pathfinder supports? Fantasy Grounds also sells Pathfinder...
