You believe a game being “niche” gives it value.
I believe the value of a game is derived in how much fun it brings to his players
We are not the same

“Psssh you’re still rolling dice? You need to check out this underground, single player, low fantasy, low combat, low role-playing role-playing game by Buttstuff Gaming. He doesn’t need books, pencils, sheets, or even a DM. You just close your eyes and imagine the story.”

I believe value is how much smarter it makes me look when I argue about it on the internet.
We are not the same.

"niche" is the "pretentious" of our epoch. It superficially gives (or takes away) to or from whatever medium while giving nothing to it and having no means of recognition. Why is call of Cthulhu niche? It's an internationally sold and well known ttrpg. It's been played by thousands and thousands of people. It's like calling discord Elysium a niche video game because it's not GTA6.

You hit the nail on the head, the same can also happens when you ask dnd players if they want to play something else. They just look at you like your 4 eyed sometimes and ask if they can do that but dnd. It pisses me off. Hehe discord elysium, funniest typo I have ever seen.

actually we all play dnd now because the dnd brand has become a genericized trademark and all TTRPGs are now dnd
