I liked the interactive Vistas to help setup roleplaying scenes that match the terrain, and automatic logging of events to help maintain notes. I would hope those features are part of foundry that could be reused in my homebrew games I run in foundry (like if I wanted to use them in a Pathfinder or DC20 games I'm building.) The cosmology was also cool, especially how it could affected the Vistas, but once again if I cannot customize it to use in non-ember campaigns, then I would be buying this for playing just in Ember. I would hope the Ember/Foundry team would make these tools available to use in foundry vtt in general. That would be awesome.
I think it would be way more interesting if it was open to all of Foundry versus just Ember. I might just be old and crumugeny but VTT's are still hard for me to imagine using a VTT lol. I like the idea of a collective place to keep notes and information. I think I'd get distracted a lot by the VTT parts and get all distracted from writing the adventure with pretty pictures. Thats me though (brent.) I think its fascinating though and very cool to see the future moving forward.
GIve it some time. If Foundry devs are smart; they'll eventually break these features (cosmology tools, Vista builders, etc) out into premium (paid for) modules that can be added to any World. Given the buzz they're generating.

@@ColumbiaBeet I think thats probably an end goal as it will move it ahead other VTT's pretty quickly I think, should be neat to watch it develop.
After listening to this I made the decision to cancel my pledge for Ember. I appreciate the thoughts and feedback you provided here. 😊
