Chronological list of D&D video games

[edit]

Hello. I was extremely busy this year, but yesterday I found the time for this. Let no one say that I stonewall people! (I got stonewalled once, on Final Fantasy Fandom, and it ain't nice).

We could create a second wikipage, titled "Chronological list of D&D video games", and put the following three tables in it, but another reader observed that it may be redundant to have two pages listing essentially the same thing. Therefore, I put the table on your personal talk page (the other one reader who asked for it is unregistered). --Abacos (talk) 08:12, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
