[QUOTE="GrimCo, post: 9605951, member: 7044462"] Some sports are on par money wise with ttrpgs, but they have same problems that ttrpgs have. You need group of people that are also interested and a ball (basketball or football). Only it's tad bit easier to find another 5-9 people to play sports. 3v3 basketball or 5v5 small football. Don't know how it is where you are, but here, outdoor elementary and high school courts are publicly accessible and free for everyone and decent amount of parks have ping pong tables with integrated metal "net" ( 2 cheap rackets and pack of balls is 20e all combined). True, ttrpgs are, money wise, among cheapest hobbies around if you can find few like minded people to play with. Same category as some card games ( you just need a deck of cards- 3e for a deck), some classic board games ( chess, checkers, nine man's morris, battleship, yahtzee, dominos - all either almost free or dirt cheap, like under 5e cheap), video games ( yes, you can play them on the rather cheap side if you aren't into newest AAA games, in the end, there are f2p mobile games) etc. Point of that post was, that it sucks if you can't find group to play for free and can't pay to play, but that's life. If you can't, you can't, no point complaining, you find something else you can enjoy. Me personally, i wouldn't pay for playing d&d, specially not in online only game. But if someone finds good value proposition in paying 20$ per session, great for them. [/QUOTE]
