Some people will never use the VTT (like me).

Others will use it, and the number who will ... this will depend entirely on price. All those people who are saying they will, or won't, without seeing the product? Seems weird.
Well, I've been saying you're weird for a long time now, but them so am I! ;)

I get what you're saying, though. Virtual is just not my cup of tea, which is why I only really used it when forced to by the pandemic.

Well, I just say that because I like my D&D the old fashioned way ... I earn it.

Oh, wait, no. I just enjoy the tech-free time. Books and pencils and physical rolling of dice and the hanging with friends in person. So there is, quite literally, almost nothing I can imagine, even free, that would make me use the VTT. To me, D&D is in-person social time.

Honestly, I have better uses of my time if it's not going to be in-person. But I also understand that there are a lot of people, that aren't me, that this doesn't apply to. Just like I will never, ever, ever watch someone else playing D&D or a videogame on twitch, yet I know for a fact that there are people that love that.

Wait -- for $30/mo could I create a character and have the AI DM run me through solo adventures?

Or do I have to at least create a party of 4? This would be a bit tricky to run them all, but I could focus on one character as the main hero and the other 3 as just minions/sidekicks.

This could be an interesting way to play when I'm home sick/alone/tired of other people.

But World of Warcraft is only $15/mo -- $30/mo is kind of a jump from the MMO standard fee. What makes this service better than those to warrant the double price point?

It’s got the D&D logo?

If the AI is learning from the players in the right way, I might subscribe just to see if I can join with a group to push the tactical boundaries and see what we can train it to do. (Use counterspells a lot? Always use killing blows on downed characters? Anti-magic shell for you and you and you? Lie all the time?)
