Anybody in the RPG market is relatively informed enough to know both DnD and PF and GURPS and even FATE. Generally brand is of less importance to informed buyers.Outside gamers RPG books compete with boardgames, consoles, online rpgs and even comics. Fantasy as a genre is big but that doesn't mean more players even if the golden goose for Hasbro et al lies with direct tie ins to Lord of the Rings, Conan and Star Wars. Personally my first exposure was two plastic bullywugs and a carrion crawler but went from the red box to GURPS due to quality of the product and access rather than branding.oh and nice article but personally I use tissues and tell my mother about the online game me and my son are playing (Pirates101 btw, not WoW).</blockquote>
