No I cannot afford it, I had surprise financial emergency this month.

But seriously, either make the whole thing free or paid, don't get my hopes up only to dash them like that.

Yeah, I guess they should have just locked all of it behind a paywall so entitled people don't get worked up over not getting everything for free.

back in MY DAY gamers used to pick themselves up by their bootstraps and get a second job if they wanted to game!

(in case you need it /s, this casual ableism is gross. if you wanna push that the artists deserve to be paid for their work that's one thing, attacking OP for being frustrated that they can't afford it is another one entirely. do better.)

I think if it was all behind the paywall I would just shrug and move on, ironically. If it was free I would be setting up a one-shot with my players. This way I got excited only to be reminded I'm poor and every nerdy interest purchase is a decision I have to seriously weight and first thing to give up if anything happens. Guess it made me overreact a bit.

Are there no free adventures for it online? Surely someone has released something in the system for free?
