Yeah, 13th Age with only 10 levels is a bit more level sensitive, but on the flip side the monster charts by level make it simplicity to scale the numbers part of a foe up or down - I do it all the time when designing encounters.

Oh yes - I will actually just have the table of stats next to me and adjust stats on the fly. I've even reached the point where I can improvise a new monster in 13A by using the stats on the table and some ideas of how its attacks should work. The scaling by level system works well, and if I screw up and make things too hard the Escalation Die mechanic ends up covering a lot of design sins too

I think it works even slicker than building creatures in 4e did tbh.

I keep trying to do something similar with 5e but the nature of encounter building in 5e makes it tougher to improvise monsters on the fly. I've been meaning to sit down and figure out how to get something that would work "well enough" but, eh, I have too many other projects...

I voted Other.
Monsters. I don't really need more.
Magic Items. There is already more than I need out there.
Spells. I don't really need more.
Subclasses. No
NPC. No
Adventures. Maybe.
Other. Encounters would be something I'm interested in.

Other: Map and Token art. That's the only patreons I currently support.

My answer does not depend on the type of content in the way you've laid it out. In theory, I might pay for any of those kinds of content.

What would determine whether I'd pay for them is more in the qualities the content has than what mechanical kind of content it is.

Other - needs to come in Fantasy Ground .mod format.

Can you elaborate on this?

None, have more than enough splat to last to 6E.

Maybe shorter adventures or compilations of shorter adventures like the old Dungeon magazine.

There are enough monsters and magic item. I am not interested about subclasses.

I like PC races, racial/monster/template + racial paragon classes.

If I buy books, not only PDFs, I would rather in my language.

I want more classes, but theses can't be only a list of superpowers, but each one has to be an interesting concept, and with a fun gameplay.

I don't back a lot of Patreons, but I will usually only back creators that I know, who are making something that interests me. There's really no catch all category for that.
