You're probably right for D&D 5e 2024 (or whatever it's being called). The main focus was the virtual table top subscription service. As the other commenter says though, this isn't true for most other systems.

Also, I don't even think it's necessarily a bad thing. Table top inspired video games. It's not bad for the influence to flow the other way too. It just needs to be considerate of the format.

It was true for 3.5. Nevermind 4e, which was a naked play to shoehorn D&D back into the then-lucrative war-gaming miniatures market.

I don't think it's bad either. I just find it's a design decision that shifts how the game is played.

You lose a lot of the more avant guard aspects of table top RPGs in favor of a ridge, easier to export system.

D&D is one system.
