[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 9655281, member: 2209"] I am happy with my purchase decision. :) I do like Paizo, I have a ton of Paizo 3.5, Pathfinder, Starfinder, and Pathfinder 2e books and PDFs. I have played and run a lot of Paizo adventures and I incorporate a lot of Paizo's Golarion into my homebrew mashup setting (it and Ptolus are the top two elements but I incorporate a lot of disparate stuff) and I use a lot of flavor from different games in my 5e games (my 5e conversion campaign of the sci-fi in D&D Iron Gods AP from Paizo incorporated stuff from WH40K, Werewolf the apocalypse, Mage the Ascension, Star Wars, Star Trek, Shadowrun, Paranoia, Doctor Who, and others). I am in a pretty good position of having more than enough great stuff for my games. I have more than enough adventures I feel I would enjoy running to last the rest of my life, even if I stuck to just 5e specific stuff (my current system of choice). Almost all my purchases are of the "Seems interesting" category and none of the things I don't have that I am interested in seems particularly must get to really prioritize over a bunch of other things I am interested in so I don't really have an interest on spending more to get one specific thing of my big list of things I am interested in. So when I spend my RPG budget I usually get things that seem good bang for the buck for things that are of interest for me without pressure to get anything in particular. Tian Xia alone, eh some interest but not enough to spend $30 of my budget on it. Tian Xia along with 20 or 30 other PDFs I have various levels of interest in (and even with a number I already have) pushed it into a more attractive buying offer at $30. [/QUOTE]
