Have you ever culled a game and regretted it? Did you buy it back and realize you made the wrong or right decision in the first place?
I recently had this come up when going through my regular cycle of reviewing my collection to see what I might be culling at the next local convention event that holds a bring & buy. This of course started me down a rabbit hole of board game culling experience after over a decade of feeling like I could consider myself a full on "board gamer".
So, since it seemed interesting I decided to think about what were some of the most impactful experiences I had about games I culled from my collection and came up with a Top 5. A Feast for Odin, Marvel Champions, Nusfjord, Arkham Horror the card game, and Spirit Island.
For various reasons and at different times during my board game journey, I culled these games and instantly regretted it. I do get into why this initially happened, why I bought them back, and give a conclusion on why or why not they stayed in my collection afterwards in my video.
BUT the experience of how personal journey and connection to board games just opened me up to a lot more reflection in how board games (at least to me) are so much more then just "games you play". It was really interesting and a neat little experiment where I now want to know if other board games have stories like mine.
Have you gotten rid of a game and regretted it? COULD you get it back? Did you get it back and realized the IDEA of the game didn't live up to the actual game when you got it back? I enjoy hearing peoples experiences and connections with board games (much like why people like certain movies or music)...
Sorry I blab, I will put my video as reference but also just interested to hear if anyone has any stories to share?
