[QUOTE="aurin777, post: 866887, member: 10032"] It happened. I think I am completely burned out of traditional fantasy. Its been happening for a long time building now, at least 2 years, but I just now realised it. Typical fantasy doesn't hold my interest anymore. It started a little over two years ago when I started dreaming of ditching my ad&d game in return for a dark*matter game or a star*drive game - I even went as far as to buy all of the books and read _all_ of the source material for the settings. From there I went to Fading Suns - first reading the victory point system and collecting most the books before getting all of the new repent d20 stuff. Keep in mind, I'm yet to play any of it. I simply collect it and wish I was playing it. From there my fancy turned quickly to planescape then to darksun, picking up all the books on the while (at least these two are technically dungeons and dragons) but then quickly got swept off into a d20 modern WWII kick with an odd mesh of wierd wars and v is for victory. Again, I scooped up a few arm-fulls of those books, as well. Then recently I was turned to iron kingdoms, and now I am on a wheel of time binge. I've spent, come to think of it, well over 1,000 and probably closer to 2,000 on gaming material in the last two years that I will never play, perhaps only because "normal" D&D doesn't hold my interest anymore. Should I see a doctor? I'm very worried about this. What do you all think I should do to handle this and curb my out of control spending? ~~Brandon [/QUOTE]
