Re: Steve Jackson Games' GURPS 2020 PDF Challenge
I don't think it's even useful to compare PDFs to a physical product that had to contend with several printed books, multiple specialty components (box, poster map, cardboard counters, dice, etc.), and assembly. That's apples to stem bolts. The current PDF won't have to contend with printing, casting, cutting, samples, assembly, boxing, or physical shipping.
Also note that we revised our thinking and supported the Dungeon Fantasy Roleplaying Game with three other Kickstarters. The game was ultimately profitable! It's just that the original Kickstarter wasn't the raging success we had hoped it to be (let's say that our hopes were closer to the 3,379 backers TFT got that to the 1,587 we actually got).
