[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 8605617, member: 6802378"] We are talking about almost half-century and of course there are several factors. Today there are several influences in the current speculative fiction: the movies with better FXs, the manganime from Japan, the videogames.. and social changes. Today the message "everybody is wellcome, sit down here, feel confortable and ejoy the game" is very important. The d20 system has been redesigned to be easier to be understood by the new players, and with a family-friendly tone even with Ravenloft. The open licence has allowed lots of 3PPs to show new ideas, and someones from these were enough good. The market now is used to Lord of Rings, Game of Thrones and Warcraft. Now Greyhawk isn't too "exotic" but maybe "not enough". Today players who choose to play TTRPG are looking for something they can't do in a videogame, for example social interactions to investigate a murder or to flirt with the taberneer's daughter.
