To you it costs less. To me and others who's shopping habits differ it does not. I am not in the Piazo ecosystem. I don't need the newest hotness them moment it comes out. That one shipping charge down from three? Doesn't apply to me, I look for spots that give me free shipping. That $90 three...

Not here unfortunately. Again for my tastes.

No real surprise. Softcover monthly wasnt worth the price they were charging( to me, obviously). And frankly I’m not sure the $80 price tag is worth it either vs $50 for 5th edition hardcover campaigns

Two books for Hero System Champions: Old School Enemie- an update to older out of print villians brought up to latest rules, and Victorian hero as to have another book for horror type ideas for my Champions campaign Also bought 4 old white wolf magazines for the multi part shadowrun...

I feel like either Shadowrun or Cyberpunk needs to be added to the list.

You are over value what the product is worth. You're assuming it hasn't matured, You're a signing far more value to it. And from that you think much of the material, which is a very niche product, we would see much more polish and innovation and professionalism. Your idea is patently false. We...

Frankly overvaluing RPG material seems worse.

That’s why I try and factor In more then one purpose for the product I’m picking up. For D&D type products OSR adventures have the biggest bang for my $$$, WoTc ones I wait for a deal- I can repurpose moser then a few they put one, and Paizos APs have the worst value to me- if I want one I wait...

yes. Cover price is $29.99, subscribers get free pdf and advanced shipping. You can qualify for pathfinder advantage and get a 15% discount, however you need to have 4 subscriptions. So you have to spend more money to get it down to about $25. Not really worth it in my opinion unless you’re...

So it depends. There's two factors I'm looking at. A) How much do I think I'm going to enjoy reading it, knowing I'm probably not going to use it at the table. B) How much use will this have not just for the rule set its made for but other games I run. So for example shadowrun's Final Harvest...

Old gaming magazines, specifically some old white wolf and challenger magazines. Filling out my collection. Man the wealth of lore, ideas, monsters and adventures out there waiting for reuse is amazing

It’s nice to see. But its been in loving hands of fans who have carried the torch for it for decades. Do not f$&k up the setting WotC

Depends. Is it a good retail shops or another half ass one I've seen over the years. Does it provide me with reasons to shop there? Reasons to frequent the shop, other then carrying product? Does it bring any value to my interests in the hobby? Because just being a FLGS really doesnt. Once upon...

I go with old Shadowrun wisdom: geek the mage first.

I have to be honest: given how poor some past products were treated when released, I’d rather Wotc make something new then revisit the old. Unless the products get better
