Out of curiosity.
How many of you do regularly have traditional style dungeon. I mean, everything can be seen as a dungeon Even the quest of the A38 Pass. But infiltrating the Caste of Lord and Lady Evildoer to find-out the evil ritual room hidden behind the ballroom is already kinda different from the traditional dungeon.
And the other question, How many of you use battle-map, and need stuff more details than at best a sketch on a white board.
Because I am always surpised there is such a market for this kind of tiles, I feel like it's the kind of stuff you need once every few years, not the kind of stuff average group use at half of the session.
The popularity of games like Shadowdark and DCC suggest that more-or-less traditional dungeons are very much 'still a thing'. They're not everything, but they're still a thing.
