Well I don't claim to be a marketing professional, but so far PnP RPGs have segmented themselves into a limited market that is slowly shrinking. And I don't see many successful businesses in the larger world who have done this. I mean take video games as an example - some of the most successful video games of the early era were literally just PnP RPGs - but digital! Baldurs Gate, Planescape Torment, even Dragon Age.
If RPGs can be "PnP games, but with the advantage digital features," and attract a huge crowd, certainly PnP games can incorporate elements of video games, with the advantage of human features. I mean unless you're saying there literally are no advantages of human features that video game players would be interested in. And I think that statement would do a huge disservice to both Video Game Players and the very many excellent DMs out there.
