Yes, this means you will pay and pay again for content that you already paid for. They are following the monetization model of a live service. Within hours of checking out HeroLab Online, all positive feelings were lost.įirst, the new model is a recurring subscription. I state that in the preface because I want to say I went into HeroLab online with a generally positive opinion of Lone Wolf. And when you bought the product, you *purchased* it with your license, and didn't have a recurrent cost. I did it gladly, because HeroLab Classic was a slightly confusing, absolutely useful tool that could do just about anything you needed.

(The review is in my profile, but the HeroLab Classic product page is memory-holed.) Thirty dollars bought you Core 1e, and you would spend a lot more for the PF1e full experience. As a matter of fact, when it was on, I did, giving it four stars but quickly noting the pricing was deceptive. I would have been quick to recommend HeroLab Classic for PF1e. Perhaps someday this product shall worth purchasing, but I will tell you what has happened since I picked it up on August 1st, 2019. My goal in writing is to alert you before your money leaves your wallet, so you can make an informed choice. I can't call it a review because the thing doesn't work yet. Gentlepersons, I submit for you a "first impressions" and "user experience" for HeroLab Online.
