[QUOTE="MNblockhead, post: 8947565, member: 6796661"] Depends on the person. I'm not a collector by nature. But I buy and keep a sizable number of books that I either have nostalgic value or are just works of art that I enjoy. So, I do have a room of bookshelves with board games and TTRPG books. I'll cull from time to time but there are quite a few things I keep not for practical reasons, but because I enjoy looking at them. I'm the opposite with guns. While I enjoy visiting a collector and having them explain the history, features, and quirks of the various items in their collection, but when it come to guns I keep testing and selling/buying until I find one that like best for its specific purpose. I can enjoy someone extolling the virtues of the Colt 1911 and their various 1911-style guns in their collection, but I would never want to own one. I'm the same way with cars. Even if I had Jay Leno money, I would just would never have any interest in owning more than a couple vehicles that I like for the purpose for which I bought them. So no, the TTRPG hobby doesn't [I]need[/I] any more space than is needed for a laptop if all you care about is playing the games. If you enjoy reading, you don't need any more space than what a Kindle takes up. But lots of us like having physical books around. [/QUOTE]
