The reason I think of it that way is for the reasons of things like the rogue getting new racket options in the apg. So now when building a rogue as a player, or looking up any info regarding a rogue's abilities we can look in ONE book, instead of the CRB and APG. It essentially condenses everything into one place rather than having to dig through multiple books for info.

I just checked that and realized how off I was on the number of classes. Thanks for the correction.

That said, would it still be fair to think of this as a compendium for all the classes from the core rulebook and the apg?

Well, my question is how would they have all 16 classes in player cores 1 and 2 without including content from later books, such as SoM, G&G, Dark archives and so on? You can't have an inventor without Guns and Gear. You can't have a Magus without Secrets of Magic... So how do we say that the 16 classes will be represented in two books without also including the vital information from their source books. I understand that additional unnecessary info may be excluded, but the classes in their entirety would have to be the minimum if not the spell lists from each book as well.

After watching the presentation today, I am ecstatic for these new books and what changes they may present. However, I am excited about a certain idea that I am not sure is entirely accurate. So my question is:

Is it fair to also interpret these new remaster books as a compendium, so to speak? For instancee, would all of the possible player choices and information be available between player core 1 and player core 2? If I chose to play an oracle or witch, would I have all of the player options that were added in later books after the APG?

The reason I ask and why I am as excited about this is because having only 2 books to thumb through instead of 6 or more sounds incredible as a GM!
