It is nitpicking because it doesn't change the bigger point of the comparison.  Core books with all the rules to run the game vs. a players handbook. So why did you bring up Numenera?  It wasn't in the post I quoted... I assumed you were speaking to the other thread the one about the Barnes and Nobles releases... if not again, why did you bring Numenera up since it was Pathfinder and 13th Age in the post I quoted?No Pathfinder doesn't require two books, in the same way you made the assertion that the Dragonspear module was everything one needed to run and play though almost everyone would want more... the Pathfinder core supplies everything needed to run and play.Wait so if I am running a more mundane or Sword and Sorcery campaign in trapped ruins of a lost age.. where the vast majority if not all antagonists are human, sub-humans (half-orcs), mysterious Fey (elves) and evil sorcerers and priests... could I do that with the core rulebook alone?  If so more monsters are just icing on the cake... not required to actually run a game.  Now do most people want more monsters sure... does this in any way change the fact that all the RULES to play the game are in the corebook?  No.Appeal to majority... that doesn't prove anything but ok.</blockquote>
