The excitement of trying a new game!

I'm getting Five Nights at Freddy's Secret of the Mimic for Switch for my birthday, and I'm reminded of how exciting it is to try a new game for the first time! Whenever I pick up a game after just receiving it, I never put it down for the whole day lol!

Anyone else excited about whatever new game you may be about to start playing in the near future?

  • I've got Total War: Warhammer 40K on my Steam Wishlist, I haven't checked recently if there's a release date yet! There's also a pre-order of the new Necromunda box set being released on Saturday - that's a Warhammer 40K tabletop spin-off played with small gangs instead of full armies. I'm really tempted to get the box as I've never bought one before and it launches just after pay day!

  • I have built and painted two spearheads for aos as well as two old world models I had a sub for aos but wasn't impressed with some of the builds so cancelled I'm more into the artistic side of Warhammer and minitures with all my other hobbies O have neither the time to play the game nor the space for boards and scenery 

    I guess thats why I got so into d&d you just need sheets and books to play and yes I do stick to the press written adventures I find it easier to be be creative this way but my son did make up an adventure that was fun

  • Yes, I know what you mean about having space for boards and the time to play. I'm really enjoying the building and painting side at the moment, even though most of the models I'm working on at the moment need a lot of filling and extra sculpting. It's part of the enjoyment for me! I've only recently picked it back up nearly 40 years after I last played (!!!) and I've still never played a game yet!
