I have to say I agree that a good gaming experience need not necessarily be with your family or friends but rather people who are equally passionate about the game itself. <br /><br />I'm just a beginner in this hobby, hopefully one day I'll have your restraint and not give in to the Cult of the New.

Different people will enjoy the hobby differently, and some will buy more games than others. <br /><br />Sadly, my copy of Uruk has been gathering dust. I don't even quite remember the rules now. So yes, it would be good to play again.

I think it helps when one is already years in the hobby. You've established the kind of games you like (as well as some other criteria) so that you get to separate the good from the bad right before you play/buy/Damien (BGG ID: dtroy_de_rapcore)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34958803631138938.post-49836382391283002942014-01-22T20:51:23.008+08:002014-01-22T20:51:23.008+08:00Sorry I don't have the small expansions.

I hope putting a date in my calendar will make it work this time. It'll be something I look forward to and plan for, as opposed to getting lost in a long and messy to-do list. Perhaps I should do this for Wilderness War too, a game I bought about 10 years ago.

"Games that I should make sure to play next year" is a category that seems particularly valuable.Bayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11879084546351997960noreply@blogger.com
