We are the same in this!
So many RPGs I wanna play, but yet keep getting new ones

hoard them hoard all of them , more more more

its true, but its also great for ideas! I find that even if i dont run a system, i use something from it!

I feel ya, I constantly get new TTRPGs I never play

Its a shame I can't get a good group together for a quick campaign or two of of DnD or something. I always wanted to try it (especially the custom campaigns like PMD or Dark Souls), but I just don't know enough people that are into it.

So I'm relegated to video games. 😔

Still love digital RPGs like Fallout and Skyrim though! 😁

NERD!

Me: "I've got all the books I need, multiple adventure paths and indy RPGs from itch.io charity drives and enough games to run for years if not decades without needing to crack another book!"

Also me: "What's that? Pizo's got a new humble bundle made up of mostly books I already own BUT ALSO SOME ONES I DON'T!?!? WHERE IS MY WALLET, I NEED TO PLACE AN ORDER NOW!"

"Rpg's are so great! All you really need to play forever is one core book, some paper, pencils, and your imagination!"
... and other lies we tell ourselves.

I made my own RPG EXPLICITLY so I'd 'never need to play another one as I'd have my own perfect system that fits my needs'... got a good few years out of it before I went, "Kids on Bike seems pretty cool, maybe I should give it a try..." And then ended up spending 3 years running D&D, followed by Pathfinder with my old beloved Call of Cthulhu and some cute indy RPGs sprinkled in for taste.

You don't understand how seen AND called out this makes me feel

That's me, too . . .

I feel this

My favorite is The Contract! www.thecontractrpg.com

As a tabletop miniatures player, I feel your pain.

I briefly re-joined the ranks of warhammer collectors after a decade away, during the seemingly brief time when they were making Age of Sigmar more approachable and rules lite, it felt like? Then they made ten million codexes and it looked complicated again, so I jumped ship for board games XD

I feel seen! x3

Me with my ever growing stash of TTRPG PDFs. xD

At leas the PDF's don't take up room. ...until one prints them up and binds them >H>

Have you heard about Skirm in the gutterlands? It's a table top skirmish game specifically for kotbashing and making up you're own narrative

I mean of all the things ya could hoard as a dragon? This is pretty tame. :v now if it was 40K minis it'd be a thing...all your gold would be gone.

I weaned myself off of magic the gathering ONTO 40k. And then I quit THAT habit by sliding onto rpg's.

Oh jesus......this is a cursed journey. XD

I hoard a fair number of RPG. The sad thing is that I lack the persons to play with them. I miss this rpg sessions.

I'm blessed enough to have a pretty good host of online friends to call upon, but I'd love to run some at a table again TuT

I definitely feel this one, I also happen to have an extensive collection, some of which has never seen the light of day, yet, and others that have yet to see their full potential in a campaign, or been played through to the end, at least once. XD =^.^=

Tis the way of the rpg'er! Better to have a splatbook on aerial griffon jousting and not need it, than to need it and not have it.

Indeed. =^.^=

Pendragon? Good taste.

Just got my copy of the apparently much-awaited gamemasters handbook. Not sure how long everyone was twiddling their thumbs waiting for it to drop, so, how many years you reckon before that new Nobles Handbook ever comes into being? XD

Oh, several. I've just been sticking to 5.2 for my game. The deep pit of Dark Age Economics is deep enough for me there.

I love Pendragon.

I've only just picked it up! Yet to run anything, but it seems a fun system!

I love that they include having to manage your own estate and family as part of the game. That part of being the warrior elite always gets left out in media.

Kinda sounds like THAT part of the 6th edition will show up in the next 1 - 10 years XD

The winter phase isn't in 6th?

Oh yah, got the winter phase rules in the core- but the more dynastic stuff - like royal engagements, ascending to nobility, and the finer details of managing estates, property and titles, are generally given a "See the Nobles Handbook".

Fair, since all the previous books are compatible. I prefer to stick to Book of the Estate instead of Book of the Noble.

I just discovered this series yesterday. One book you can check out is Mutants in the Now on itch.io. It's a reimagining of the 80's book Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Other Strangeness, minus the headache of the Palladium engine. There's a total of 275 mutant animals you can play as between two books. They have a kickstarter out now called Pet Shop Blues that adds more reptiles, birds, and bugs, 75 more breeds of dogs, 20 cats, and a mixed breed system with tens of thousands of combinations between them.

Have you tried Dragonbane?

Too fucking truuuuue

What Iiii wanna know is, how many NEW ones are you now going to be looking for from the recommendations you get from THIS post- >H>

by god i know that feeling, <.< Stares at Fuzion(with bubblegum crisis theme suplements, lancer, and most of the E20 system core books.

ALL the PDFs!

Sam for me ... I doi have a soft spot for SLA Industries but tend to tone down the horror and focus onh the 'corporate corruption' and 'film noir' aspects of the game.

I feel this pain immensely.

A pain that goes from emotional to physical when you try to lift it all...

*looks back at the bookcase filled with RPG books, and the digital bookshelf with even more* Feeling a little called out here...

The secret shame of every GM TuT ... that's probably less than secret to those they live with/share bank accounts with.

I'm not even a GM, that's the funny part. Though I do have a few odd ball system that would be perfect for a quick pickup game.

I have a stack of TTRPG books next to me that’s actually that tall.

If only I could print and pile up all my pdf's too TuT

Theoretically, you could. All you need is a printer, a sizable supply of ink, and a forest worth of paper. Maybe some binding equipment, too.

I'm just gonna leave this here for the dragons hoard.
Worlds Largest Dungeon

That's actually kinda tasty lookin

... I feel ya =/
