[QUOTE="Velderan, post: 9170272, member: 7038056"] The hobby is also a bit of a unique animal for value due to some people buying books to read them and not play them (which obviously severely cuts down on the hours of enjoyment they get out of a book). My Pathfinder purchases include things I’ll use bits from to flesh out a NPC or location and other books I know I’m unlikely to use for a game and just wanted to read. Not everything will see the use something like Abomination Vaults will end up seeing by the time we’re done running it in probably 6 months or so. There’s also people who are basically shelf collectors that just like having a bunch of stuff on their shelves. I know I’m guilty of unintentionally doing that with books I back on Kickstarter thinking I’ll use them and by the time the project fulfills, I'll have lost interest in what I paid for. That’s a big reason I’ve cut back on the types of projects I’ll back, mostly looking for stuff that the majority of the writing sounds like it’s done and they just needed additional funding to commission some art and cover printing costs.
