Reply To: Is it okay to be left behind – Pondering post lockdown

I’ve decided because I have less time after a newborn during lockdown I really need to focus on what I play so I spend as little time as possible reading rules and as much time as possible rolling dice.

I think lockdown has helped me decide what games I’m really into, it’s those I was most excited to play once we were free again.

It’s also getting into some tried and tested games and really getting k ow the games I like to play.

For example I know I don’t get on with games that aren’t wysiwyg, I cant remember the myriad of strategems in 40k for example I want to see a space marine and know what it can do rather than have some external special rules suddenly apply for a turn. This is why I really like bolt action.

This again stems from the lack of time thing again, I haven’t got time to focus on learning too many rules, I’m after a simple fun game.

I’m sure a lot of people are in the same boat or have been as they’ve progressed through life so maybe it’s actually a time of life thing and once time frees up I’ll become another gaming butterfly but for now it’s time to cocoon up with my favourite games.
