Edit: so it turns out that every hobby can be expensive if you do it long enough.
Also I love how you talk about your hobby as some addicts.

Board games. Things get expensive once you start collecting
But you don’t understand, I totally need that 30$ Oceania expansion for my Wingspan that I will play maybe twice a year
Oooh right - I totally forgot about that expansion! I should finally unbox it and prepare it to be played just in case…
My board game group usually buys games more often than we have time to meet and play, so it just comes with this hobby I guess. A friend told me all the time about the stack of three games he had bought and never played and that we still need to play them and then informed me today, that he has just bought Council of Shadows…
The stack of shame of never-played games is real… Everyone ends up defaulting to the same selection of tried and true games of the group because nobody wants to learn a new thing when you can just get to playing immediately, it’s very unfortunate
European expansion is worth it! I like the round end goals!
I swear I’ve tried to enjoy the European expansion but some of the birds require you to pull some Hannibal Barca 4d chess shit to use them properly
For me it was D&D: all those fucking books, dice and lead figurines.
New character means new dice! Even if it’s just the idea for a new character…
Here are some pubs where you can borrow games and play them there.
But it is usually tradeoff - good game selection and bad beer, or bad games and great beer.
I had to create a “if you add one, you sell one” rule after running out of shelf space.
