Took me way to long to figure out what ttrpg is. Just feedback:)

There's an element of, if you don't know the acronym, then at this point you're not the market. Longer term, I'll want it to be generalist, but in the same way as as a dev I'll use terminology to help people select into "this is relevant to me or not", TTRPG serves a similar purpose here.
You're not wrong though. For anyone wondering, table-top role playing game.

Yes could be.
But you are not worried that this can also act as an entry barrier/gatekeeping thing?

Nope. It's a market targeting thing. I don't have the resource to deal with people who haven't played before, as well as people who have. For beta testers, if someone hasn't played a TTRPG before, they're not suitable. They wouldn't have anything to compare to.
