Note that the first-person is only half the story, the other half is the real-time.

Unfortunately I suspect the FP RT is just a mode to view your maps in while designing them, and you are meant to export them to regular VTTs in traditional overhead format. I see people on Twitter saying they exported to Fantasy Grounds for example, which makes no sense lol. It’d be like being proud of exporting Crysis to Game Maker.

I hope I am wrong though so I’ll tweet the devs about it.

At any rate this is a huge step forward, and even if these guys bungle it some other group will pick up the ball and run with it, rendering this program useless in the process.

RPG players and developers are retarded in a different way than traditional videogame players and developers it seems. We’ll need to crush the objections of both sets of retards to create the artform of the future.

From Poland:

Never Ending Dungeon: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/neve ... -dungeon#/

It has a first-person mode, but it doesn’t seem to be the focus of the program. Not sure if it’s real-time either.

It seems half-baked, but it will draw publicity and plenty of groups will try to outdo it. I expect more similar announcements soon.
