Curious if anyone has ever played an AP without referring to the AP's Players Guide.
If so how did it go?

I have run four Paizo adventure paths and an currently running a fifth: Rise of the Runelords, Jade Regent, and Iron Gods under PF1 and Ironfang Invasion and Strength of Thousands under PF2. For the first two, Rise of the Runelords and Jade Regent, none of us consulted a Player's Guide because we did not know about them. We made a mistake in Rise of the Runelords in choosing the medium level progression for XP rather than the fast progression. The Player's Guide probably would have pointed out the proper progression.
The Iron Gods Player's Guide had character traits (a PF1 thing rather like mini-backgrounds) that my players liked a lot. For converting Ironfang Invasion from PF1 to PF2 I converted the character traits to full backgrounds and two players took them. The Strength of Thousands Player's Guide recommended Free Archetypes so we used that option.
