[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 8209956, member: 2525"] Here is their response, posted with permission: Unfortunately there is not - at this time - a plan to release such a report for Foundry VTT for three reasons: 1. The Foundry Virtual Tabletop business model (as a one-time purchase) means that customer numbers are very tightly linked to sensitive business financial data, so any report that I issue would have to be transformed in a way (for example percentage shares only) in order to avoid revealing too much about the ongoing operation of the business. 2. An important aspect of the Foundry Virtual Tabletop privacy policy is that we don't collect data about how you are using the software, so accurate data about how many players are currently using a certain game system is not data that we collect. In the future I have plans to add an opt-in setting along the lines of "I agree to share some usage data with Foundry Virtual Tabletop to help them continue to improve their product and service", but for the time being this is data we have chosen not to collect. 3. The software is still in its first year since launch, its growing quickly and the composition of available game systems for the software has still not stabilized, this creates a risk that the current data on this might cause people to internally cache certain preconceptions about Foundry being "good at X" or "bad at X" when the reality is rather that the community and game system support is still rapidly evolving. I realize these reasons may not be satisfying to you - I would like to release some usage data and statistics in the future, but I don't think it's the right time to do that for the above reasons.
