I could draft a game supplement giving it little thought or consideration, and put it online. It would be both niche and homebrewed but it would also probably be crap. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />Distribution volume and production value are no measure of quality in either direction. If you do enjoy playing GURPS, RQ6 and BRP its because thier creators wanted to share thier ideas. This doesn't make anyone who playes these games "beholden" to the creators. You buy what you like and are under no obligation to purchase any more product than you want. What would you be playing if all the rpgs that you enjoy had never been published? All gamers who play games that they really enjoy should appreciate the efforts of the creators that made the game. That doesn't mean you "owe" them anything (beyond the purchase price) but a heartfelt thanks for thier efforts.</blockquote>
