Kind of both. I tried VTT but it ended up preparing tables and mostly for board games or card games than anything else. I played MtG with my son and then tried to convince him to play Battletech too.

It worked for a while, but still he's different generation, can't blame him not to play games with his dad :>

My own gen... let's say I'm one of few who's left interested in it. I have a project to revive it among my group of friends from home town and use VTT or something similar to play.. but we just can't sync up for the last 2 years.

On potentially reaching out to strangers to join/play/run game... I don't trust I can prioritize that nor I have much time to develop new relations today.. 

All above combined creates mostly a limitation in my head, perhaps... but still I mostly keep the books and read them occasionally.

I found ChatGPT close to a game session as well.. not exactly that you can do RPG with the bot, but I had few conversations that my questions were indeed like if I was playing an investigation kind of game... it was cool.

.... Xerox Alto was the thing. Anything after we use is just a mere copy.
