[QUOTE="dirtypool, post: 8717014, member: 7033897"] That knowledge of course goes against Paizo's statements about their business where they indicate that their bread and butter is the sale of campaign books. AP's are what fuels that company and they make no bones about it, nor have they ever. So you're not quoting "knowledge" you're guessing. And your guess is based on your bias. Okay, but you didn't say PFS games. You said "the number of in person games compared to online games" which is an unknowable figure. And no, comparing two listed organized play game times does not count as "surprisingly" conducting a census. Is this supposed to act as some sort of backing for your claim that books won't sell at GenCon? Because your rulebooks are never outdated because Paizo provides you with a document reflecting all the latest changes. That's a you thing, that's not a universal truth for all players. It may not even be a universal truth for most players. Really, what other ways should I alter my play style? Please do tell me what else I can do to play my games the way the all knowing Retreater would... :rolleyes: Look at all of those "I" statements, breathe it in for a second, then exhale as you realize that all of these - this industry, Paizo's business model, those books at GenCon - are not about you.
