It wouldn't surprise me at all if I spend more on D&D computer games then the pnp RPG books. Heck even the category of board, card, and dice games might be close to over.So even if one doesn't spend a lot of money on pnp RPG books, one might spend a TON on other D&D branded products and license fees will flow into WotC's wallet.That said, I spend more on PF2e pdfs and FVTT modules then I did on D&D books, pdfs, and FVTT modules. And I don't even play FVTT! I also spend a hefty chunk of money on other systems pdf bundles, and FVTT modules over the years, again, most of which I don't play...I would even argue that if we only bought the pnp RPG books we would actually use in pnp RPGs, then the industry would be a whole bit smaller! Pnp RPG players might be in essence collectors/hoarders... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />There is so much non-mainstream cool stuff out there, that most of us will never play, but some of us do own, in either physical or digital form...</blockquote>
