That stuff doesn't happen automagically. There is extensive prep work involved in importing monsters, items and prepping DDB maps for use in Foundry.But if the point to take away is he is making ~25k a month, net, on Patreon? Yes. He is.  That's what I was referring to when I indicated he was making GOOD MONEY on it and if he had previously another full-time job, he doesn't need it now.Forgotten Adventures does extremely well on their very inexpensive Patreon, too. They pay ~5 people with that money though. Heroic Maps does very well with their patreon, and they sell all those maps on DriveThru, too.There are a handful of other RPG related patreons doing extremely well, too. I consider this a feature -- not a bug. I am happy as hell to pay for these niche products, delivered to me for a relatively modest ~$30ish a month in patreon fees, all-in.</blockquote>
