In what does Pianoteq differ for you from a true piano experience? 
Well, again mostly that pedal sound that bothers me 
So in the end, if you play midi with it, it will probably sound good for you. But when you play a lot with the piano pedal, live, the pedal does not feel natural to me, It mostly affect those who use half-pedaling in the first place. If you are not using a half-pedal controller, it will not affect you.
Really funny. That’s not the first thing I take care of even when playing a real piano. 
And yes, I use half pedaling, but not with Pianoteq. But even if I love my piano plugin, I am not sure it has the best pedal noise ever…
thanks for clarification !
