Once around 2000, a friend invited me over to play a tabletop game called Talisman. When I got there, we made drinks and then settled into setting it all up. He had the core game plus a lot of expansions in large bins. Two hours later, we had the board and all the expansions set up. I was exhausted by then, but gamely agreed we had to play now that we set it all up. Four hours later we called it a night but we had not actually determined the winner of that game.
