So after my last post, you've all convinced me, I'm buying Vampire the Masquerade 5th edition. The question I have now is, do I need the Player's Guide? I read a pdf of the Core Rulebook, and I'm going to my LGS to buy it after work tomorrow. It seems pretty all-encompassing, and I feel confident I can run a game with just the core rules. How essential, or not, is the Player's Guide? Will it add to our gameplay, or am I better off just buying 2 Core Rulebooks?

I saw some VTM books at my local game store and thought about buying them to run a game with friends. They are a little pricey, so I wanted some opinions on the game before I drop cash and go in blind.
