Message: <blockquote data-quote="Whizbang Dustyboots" data-source="post: 8915600" data-attributes="member: 11760">Maybe so, but the <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/metal.php" target="_blank">sales chart</a> suggests otherwise.I see just one DMs Guild product in the Adamantine tier (Minsc and Boo's Journal of Villainy), tons of OSR stuff, and a good amount of third party stuff like the Gardens of Ynn in the D&D-adjacent space. TSR, WotC and Extra Life books are also represented, but I don't think they represent a regular DMs Guild publisher in any way.There are two dozen or so (I stopped counting eventually) in the Mithril tier, but again, they're massively outnumbered by OSR and third party stuff.Things actually get worse at the Platinum tier, with DMs Guild material barely represented, while third party D&D adjacent stuff is all over it.The company doesn't show all the listings for the tiers below that, since it would run into the tens of thousands of titles.That means there's a handful of third-party DMs Guild stuff that breaks through, but for the most part, if you want hope to sell in the top 2% of all products across the One Book Shelf sites, you're more likely to get the big sales outside of the DMs Guild. And you get double the commission.Note that only about 42% of products even make it to the Copper level, which means <a href="https://support.dmsguild.com/hc/en-us/articles/217029008-Metal-Rankings-Other-Questions" target="_blank">51 or more sales</a>.</blockquote>
