You know why old companies go out of business all the time, when they had the market cornered? They fail to adapt to changes, and/or by the time they do it’s too late. D&D was the original, and yet it’s never been able get beyond a certain threshold.
That's just a weird point to be making now that DnD is more popular than ever, is growing in popularity and the alternative rulesets have largely been abandoned.
It always gets surges of popularity, but it always falls back down. It has gotten a recent surge in PnP because some “non-nerd” celebrities have talked about it the last couple of years.
I’m not here to bait anyone, it would just be nice, for once if the surge wasn’t squandered. PnP has adapted to the times consistently. The video game side has not adapted to the format.
Btw I’m proud to consider myself a nerd, so let’s just nip that retort in the butt.
