This was very much intentional. For us when playing online, a focus element was missing, something to gather around (I know that sounds a bit vague). We were looking for something that felt a bit like being inside a video game, but allowing the flexibility of a TTRPG system. Help with game mechanics or organization felt secondary, and it still does in our games. There is of course a lot of different players out there. And we are looking into doing some rules integrations. It will unlikely go the route of full automatization though. Being able to build/play/share together, make changes to the board in real time, and the feel of playing is going to take precedence.

TaleSpire isn't going to be right for everyone. Luckily the TTRPG space is incredibly diverse and have excellent creators with different priorities. So it has a lot of people covered.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the game!
