Quoted from aeonblack:Because it's impossible to get any work done without 2-3 people standing around drinking beer and saying "yep"? Jesus, Meegis, I'm starting to question if you own any pins at all...
Glad you made that post... I'm starting to wonder myself...
Fun Fact: I prefer to be the one standing around drinking so if anyone requires that role to be filled....
Quoted from aeonblack:Maybe I'm an oddity around these parts, but I'm of the opinion that if you can't afford an extra couple grand, you probably shouldn't be spending the money in the first place. Does it suck that the conversation is crap right now? Big time. But that's all the more reason for people to start trading pins around more. A lot of machines stagnate in collections here, because people get something they like and don't want to let it go (we're all guilty, myself included).
That extra couple grand (which is more like $3k+ as time goes by) is potentially another 1-2 used machines, or potential spending on a vast array of other hobbies/vehicles/vacations/etc. For me it's not about 'affording it', its about justifying it.
Thank god Game of Thrones didn't have an LCD - that was going to be a must buy until I saw that. The prospect of a Star Wars machine coming out this year WITH an LCD scares me....
Quoted from Rob_G:You're missing out on a great game then!
Rob
I played it at Expo. I know what I'm missing.
Its really good, but between the DMD and the meh artwork, it's not a $10k game for me 
Glad to hear you're enjoying it though. The rules are VERY compelling.
