So now it's been about 13 months since I started getting back into RPGs. When I started, I had nothing. I was just looking at my shelf and was kind of shocked at how much stuff I've accumulated over that short amount of time. So I figured I'd list it all out so I could look at it next time I get the urge to buy something, and ask myself whether or not I really need it.

So yeah, basically, I have way more stuff than I could ever possibly use, and I find myself continually shopping around for more. I'm sure there's more stuff than even listed here because I am just typing this off the top of my head.
So, my question is, are we all like this, or should I be seeking professional help? At least when I played World of Warcraft, it was only $15/month!
Alright, gotta go look for more stuff to buy!
That's a pretty intense pile o' stuff, but you seem to be missing a Miscellaneum of Cinder.
ReplyDeleteGood catch. I had never heard of it, likely since it was released prior to my re-entry into the world of imaginary monster-killing. At any rate, the situation has been corrected, and another 338K has been added to my RPG folder. Disaster averted.
ReplyDeleteRe the Misc. of Cinder - Best Damn dollar I ever spent on a PDF!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I think we all like buying gaming stuff! Why not? It's fun. In spite of the Mortgage, I still have way more disposable income than I did as a teenager. Might as well have some fun with it.
The Misc of Cinder? Tell me more please. And yup, I buy more mini's and supplements in a month now as an adult than I could in a couple of years as a teenager. And I have the metal mountain and unread books pile to show for it.
ReplyDeleteI'm fairly certain we're all like that. I think it's because we want to use it all and unlike WOW it's possible you could not very probable but possible
