[QUOTE="FitzTheRuke, post: 8985157, member: 59816"] There's been vague talk about it for decades! Us game stores sure appreciate it, even if in some ways (at least in some [I]minds[/I]) it means we're "sell-outs"! Seriously though - I've never been one who is intimidated by digital. For one, my store's DOOM by technology replacing me has been predicted for all of the 30 years I've been in business (and earlier!) and has yet to happen. Secondly, there is actually a back-and-forth between real, physical books (Comics and Games both) and online, digital versions of the same. For a great example, I myself own every 5e book on D&D Beyond, even though I sell physical books (and I do no online sales, so I'm about as old-school as people get). BUT, if I'm going to sit down before bed to read what I'm going to run tomorrow, I want a physical book. At the table, I want a physical book (and a physical character sheet). I'm not the only one. We can live together in harmony! [/QUOTE]
