I’m dialing back on the variety of purchases I’m making because of reasons already stated:
I have a reasonable library of boardgames I haven’t played nearly as much as I’d want, especially considering the ammount of money I spend on them. I’ve played my complete firefly game but once and have yet to play a single full campaign with any dungeon crawler, indluding my complete imperial assault collection which is over 600 euro’s worth.

I do find it’s extremely addicting to open en nose through a giant new box of shinies, but every game I get means another game will be played less. My aim the coming years is to focuss primarely on the games I currently have. That means it’s fine to add to existing armies, but those tend to not be the giant purchases as a new one is.
I’m also in the market for new rulesets for mini’s already in my collection. Some of my old games, no longer hold my interest, while the models are still great. I’ve even made the beginnings of a ruleset with a friend f mine that should scratch a huge itch if we get it to work, Which is almost a new hobby itself.

I do kinda miss surfing the internet of late. I still spend quite some time on this site and others, but it’s just no longer so exciting to see all the new stuff that comes out, if it’s not already in the games I have.
It’s still cool to see what others do as seeing fellow hobbyist showing of their work remains a huge inspiration.

There’s still plenty
