Many new releases pile up with single-use plastics and excessive packaging, creating waste that contradicts our love for thoughtful design. As collectors, our purchasing habits directly influence manufacturers toward sustainable or harmful practices. How are we collaborating to prioritize biodegradable materials and reduce carbon footprints in our hobby?
I once believed a massive shelf of unplayed games was a badge of honor... now, I think curating a smaller, loved collection is more meaningful. Helping a friend downsize their hoard really drove that home for me.
