The difference between Actual Play and Tabletop Streaming matters here.
The biggest factor in whether someone buying a TTRPG will have a good time at their home table is Playtesting. And an entertainment stream with actors won't reveal a game is under-tested. Actual Play usually will.

my last post on anything Spry Fox.
i loved them since 2010. Triple Town got me through so much from long work hours to doctor waits.
Spirit Crossing confirmed to use Claude (Gen AI) in their code could have been addressed and changed, but this statement from their co-founder is it for me.

A conversation we may not be ready for:
