Great suggestion, I just did this today and they were ecstatic! Pandemic, Catan, Lewis & Clark, Medieval Academy to name a few I donated...

I can't stand the modern artwork by Vlado Krizan in the scholastic edition. The rugged, cross-hatching style artwork in this version is much more evocative.

They're freeing up warehouse space, that's why it's only physical goods. M&M4e is ages away. (Going by GR's track record.)

FYI...Mutants & Masterminds 3E is likely discounted because M&M 4e is in late pledges on kickstarter right now.

I know in one of my sci-fi campaigns, a whole world was a monument to the war that had made the surface unliveable. The moons had various resorts and touristy stops for people making a pilgrimage to the world, just outside the interdiction zone, because of course commerce demands it.

The number of times that occurs in Star Wars...
Luke and Obi-Wan
Obi-Wan and Qui-gon
Anakin and Obi-wan
Ahsoka and Anakin
Ezra and Kanan.
Starkiller and Vader
[Din] Grogu and Din Jardin... "This is the Way.
Steve Mullard and Falcon (PCs - Young Jedi and Failed Jedi, WEG2e)
Think maybe it's a setting trope? ;)
Even in the latest Maul, they have that trope.

For example, the Expanse novels would be useful reading for playing a game in the expanse because of the fact that the game is based on the novels. However, I wouldn't say that fiction based in The Iron Kingdoms or Eberron (taking two examples of worlds that I play in) are necessary for playing that game. Some are useful for getting the atmosphere right as noted by Stephen above. But not necessary reading (nor should they be).

Mistborn was also an enjoyable read.
If you want to omit settings that were published without an RPG at first, the first few Drizzt novels are the only ones I've read. Fun enough but kind of forgettable.

I guess we are interpreting "d-mid" as "traffic cone" now?
