This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

How many of your players own their own books?

The latest games I have played, they have only one core book (no PHB).

For that reason, I believe that people don't buy a game unless they are planning to GM it. Only once I saw a player with a corebook only intending to play it.

Theory of Games

None or next to none of the fuckers.

I literally need to shame them into buying the books. If there's an SRD, forget about it.

But the Pathfinder SRD is concise. Others are more limited.

IME, players willl not spend ching on books unless they ABSOLUTELY have to - and that's bad and good but, mostly bad.
TTRPGs are just games. Friends are forever.
