I know this question has been posed with previous versions, but how is it for the latest version? Do you still need After Effects to do it?

Thanks!

Actually, it depends on the font you're using.

The challenge with doing a type-on effect in PR is that your font must allow for a vertical line to separate the characters.  With the Typewriter Animation Preset in AE, that's not an issue.

Yes I know the video, but I thought it might be outdated as it's a video from February 2015

Premiere Pro CC now includes a feature to make this a little bit easier. Here is a link to a more recent video that shows the effect:Adobe Premiere Pro Tutorial: Typewriter Text Effect Animation (CC 2017 Essential Graphics How to) - YouTube

After Effect is easy to do. Just drop the effect on the text.

In Premiere you can use the crop effect and reveal a letter one by one.
