Tabletop RPG. I started in High school, you need only paper a pen and a set of dice, right ? All the rules can be found online anyway, right ?
But it's so much better to have the physical books. And you need more than one dice of each obviously. And this nice metal dice looks very good. I obviously need different set of dice with colors pattern that match my different characters.
Speaking of characters, I need mini. I could get the cheap basic one of course, but the lead ones looks sooo much better.
And I obviously need custom models for all my characters.
Several years later, with a disposable income and I added maps, tokens, terrains, cards, ect. Even a tablet that I use only for this. I'm now limited by the storage place available in my flat (maybe for my own good).
May I suggest a 3D printer and set of speed paints?
There is something awesome about being able to print up and paint the exact monster before the session.
It's a whole new world of terrain and tiles you don't bother using half the time.
Ahah, it's in my mind for a long time already but it's a whole other money sink ! And I don't have space for now to install that.
What are speed pants?
Oh. My mistake.
