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.

        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

      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.
