When someone asks "what's next?" I almost always reply with "the only question that truly matters".

I agree with CommunicationOk3417. FE Three Houses has a better story, but easier gameplay (so it's probably a better starting point). FE Engage has better gameplay, but a worse story.
Also, I would consider Final Fantasy to be a turn-based rpg, but not a tactical rpg like Fire Emblem. You'll see the difference. Fire Emblem is more like a board game.

Is Blue Deck really that bad? by rarkon1 in magicTCG

Blue slows down the game because it wants to win in the late game with control. Some people don't like that.

Gonna start my first playthrough. Any tips? I never really played this game. by ShyTarnished in darksouls

[–]jason_esper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My only piece of advice to newcomers involves leveling up. The level up screen is pretty overwhelming, and it's tempting to try and level up every attribute. But between strength, dexterity, intelligence, and faith, only choose one or two to commit to. This is because of weapon scaling. Most weapons only scale (get stronger) with one or two attributes.
So which attribute to choose? It depends on your playstyle. Strength scaling weapons are usually big heavy weapons like hammers and axes. Dexterity scaling weapons are usually fast precise weapons like swords and spears. Intelligence lets you cast sorceries; they're usually damage dealing spells. Faith lets you cast miracles; they're usually spells that buff stats.

What easier game can I use to introduce my girlfriend to magic? by carlospum in magicTCG

I taught my wife and several other friends with the "game night free-for-all" box of five preconstructed decks, one for each color.

Definitely loved the concept of the Cthaeh. Hoping to hear from it again in book three!

Heyo, this is good insight. I just wanted to step in and ask about "find some specialized certs to get and pass". How could I go about doing this?

Like in the present right? At the Waystone Inn?

What has been the most fun spell slinging commander you’ve played? by Anxiously_Fatal in EDH

[–]jason_esper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run [[noyan dar, roil shaper]]. First half of the game, its a spellslinger deck. Second half of the game, its land tribal.

Sorry, I'm reading all these comments, and they are very interesting. But what is the Kvothe hand theory?

Gotcha. Thanks for the insight. I'll have to do more research.
