What makes up the content of a Roleplaying Game?

The text, usually a book (printed or PDF), right?
Then you also need character sheets. So everyone can have a character.

And honestly, often more player handouts. Perhaps move sheets, quick rules references, etc.
If your RPG is big (and isn& #39;t a spin off of D&D), then Quick Start rules are a good way to tempt people to learn more about your game. Players hate new game systems. (GMs love & #39;em)
Speaking of learning an RPG, you should probably also have How to Play videos. Before I play any board game, I hop on YouTube and learn how to play the game.
What about examples of playing your RPG too? A lot of the books have examples in them. What about Actual Play videos, showing the game in action?
You don& #39;t see this often with RPGs, but what about swag? Every conference I go to has stickers for everything, except for RPGs. Can I get cool swag for your RPG?
I& #39;m not really going anywhere with this thread. Just thinking out loud on the internet to see what happens.
