My FLGS owner told me to stop buying games I'll never play, and it stung because he was right
Was at the shop on Saturday and the owner, Dave, looked at the three shrink-wrapped boxes I was carrying and said "you know you can just come in and play the demo copy, right?" I've bought 14 games since January and played 3 of them. He wasn't being mean, he just knows my shelf better than I do. Now I'm sitting here staring at a stacked Kallax in my spare room in Rochester wondering what I'm actually collecting here. How do you all decide when a game earns a spot on your shelf vs just getting played once at a friend's place?
