[QUOTE="Stoat, post: 5505205, member: 16786"] Yes and No. There are features that a WotC VTT could offer that I'm not getting with d20 Pro, in particular the integrated MB and CB. One of the hassles of using a VTT is data entry, especially inputting monster stats. This process is very fast with d20 Pro -- I can create a monster in less than 10 minutes. WotC could make it as quick as pushing a button. Likewise, my group lost almost an hour of game time last week because everybody had leveled and needed to upload their new characters to the VTT. Again, in theory, WotC could have greatly simplify that process. Moreover, WotC could offer pre-packed adventures ready to just drop into the VTT. That might be cool. On the other hand, I'm not excited about a VTT that limits the maps I can make to WotC's library of adventure tiles. If I can't import CC3 maps into a VTT, I'm not very interested in it. I'm a DDI subscriber, and I'll stay a DDI subscriber as long as the Compendium keeps working. I'd give WotC's VTT a shot if it looked like a step up from what I'm using. And it could be a step up from what I'm using. I just don't have a lot of faith that WotC will make it so. [/QUOTE]
