I'm not going to tell you whether or not you should or shouldn't. I'm just gonna tell you what you *should* do if you *do* decide to try getting into it.

>Find someone to teach you how to play the game
And I don't mean the basic summoning mechanics because that's just shit you can learn in under an hour. I mean someone that is willing to teach you how to read PSCT (the formatting of the card text, and yes there ARE keywords in this game), how Priority(IMPORTANT) and Timing(Learn Priority first) works, and how some of the more nitty-gritty stuff like the Damage Step works.

>Watch real games playing out
THIS IS A BIG ONE THAT NEW PLAYERS DON'T DO. They will try to get into the game by throwing themselves at the damn wolves, while they're still learning, instead of seeing how it actually plays out beforehand. Master Duel (their official digital client) is really good for this since the animations give you time to parse things as they're happening, but YCS tournament feature matches (don't look up YCS Bologna 2025) also work.

>Consider Genesys
It's a throttled version of Advanced format where instead of a banlist, certain cards are assigned point values that make it so you can't just shove anything into any deck. It helps wrangle the game a lot, but wrangling it and stupifying it are two very different things. Pendulum and Link Monsters are also absent in the format, but what helps new players more than anything is the point system since it means that you can't shove 5+ engines and generic goodstuff into a single deck like you can with Advanced.

>>97354074
Regardless of what you do, absolutely ignore >>97354538 's advice of Genesys. Its a shitty doa format that not even the youtube grifters want to touch.

>>97354074
Watch https://youtu.be/IoW1jLrGEnU?si=8fqNGaCmv_8hkDAB if you think you want to get into the game and "remember it as a kid, so it's gotta be the same thing as it was 25+ hears ago". It covers how to play in the later half of the video while the front half is history.
But it sounds to me like you found where you want to be with the game which is just to enjoy the art. It's perfectly fine to be a secondary just don't be a knob about it. Don't go "uh summon bunch of monsters is le bad game, low turn le bad" if you don't want to understand the game and constantly make the same bottom of the barrel jokes like "what does pot of greed do?" from reddit and you're better than almost 99% of secondaries.
If you want to collect select singles if you're into the art then just ask for advice.

As a heads up, this >>97354595 is likely a "Farfa viewer". Which is a demographic of children or people who watch 20 hours of tiktok. Play whatever the hell you want.

>>97354595
I said "consider", not "start with". There's a massive difference between the two. If someone's being overwhelmed by Advanced but they still like enough aspects of the game that they want to stick with it, then Genesys is a good alternative.

they've made a robot esper and an arborian smuggler. i'm gonna throw them in to a space station in the neutral zone where they have to try and stop a terrorist threat, and have that lead into a planet-hopping story similar to KOTOR, where every couple of sessions they'll collect a macguffin on one planet and fly to the next. we were supposed to play this weekend, but rescheduled to this week.
i wanna test the leveling curve from level 1 to 10, some ground combat, space combat, social stuff, a couple of dungeon crawls, get them aligned with/hunted by different factions, go from zero to hero, maybe experience a death or two.

>>97352596
There's different tools for different types of world building but I give the edge to Cepheus. I am biased though.
I've been using Traveller (of which Cepheus is a variant) for decades to run my own settings. The tools for creating systems and sectors will help you make a setting quickly and the tech level standardization helps you manage setting consistency at a glance.
That said, I have a copy of SWN and have been using the random tables with my Traveller games. I find it a great resource.

>>97354221
Valdor isn't autistic, he's a psychopath

Yes, and that is why to be fully realistic, Lobo has his space dolphins, Hitler had his animals and Valdor needs a Sangi to feel like a proper psycho.

The trick with the purple site is to click 'download' on all the good shit you see, so that it registers as "purchased" and this way you are able to download the file even if it got deleted. The purple site remembers.

So I'm essentially infant new to Vangaurd, like 5 days old new, bought Dear Days 2 because I may or may not be retarded and I don't think I'll ever even attempt to get anything dlc related because of how borderline grossly expensive it is, is there a specific archive or site that has deck recipes for vanilla Dear Days 2? Since most I've seen are rightfully using upgrades decks with the dlc.

>>97354353
use vg paradox
https://vg-paradox.com/subpage/TopDecks

in the top deck you can filter by sets
ex you go to Rezael and the you put the filter to dz03 and pick one of the recent ones
if a deck dont have tops like Liael Amorta just search in google and add the set many people submit decks to decklog

you could also use the official decks

I think in general bandits are commonly thought of as brutes living outside of society and robbing/raping/murdering their way through a usually meager existence.
What if they're not counting on common armed robbery, but instead have more of a black market vibe going on? And when you meet them, they're not doing anything to harm you but trying to get through with whatever illicit goods they're transporting. Like some abducted young females and / or illegal reagents/magic stuff/weapons.
The party would be challenged to notice what is happening, and then be challenged to decide what course of action to take. Perhaps they keep their heads down and avoid conflict, or they demand a bribe. Or they attack then and there (make sure the bandits form a visibly possibly deadly encounter). They might also follow the bandits back and try to free the captives silently... Or become the ambushing party and see if they can kill some bandits in their sleep.

Another option is to have two groups be mid-combat, and both claim the others to be bandits. What group will they help out and "kingmake"? Or will they just let the combat run its course? Will they "third party" the whole lot and take all the loot? Or will they pacify the fight and try to get them to leave each other alone, thereby becoming part of the issue of whose goods are these anyway. You might sprinkle some evidence to the truth around the scene for players who wish to engage in that route or just keep it a coin toss.

Third option is the bandits are con artists of some type and will try to swindle the party. Snake oil, soothsaying or acting like victims and pickpocketing. Or they might send the party out to a nearby dungeon and hope to loot the corpses after the inevitable failure.

Fourth option is that bandits prefer soft targets, and adventuring parties are not such targets. So they try to get away. Up to the party to decide if they give chase or leave it.

>>97352869
>Throats cut, boxes broken open, and a hasty trail leading off in the forest nearby. You listen closely to hear laughter and lots of noise which means lots of men.
You know, turning to banditry does not automatically require one to have an IQ below room temperature.
The rest of these read like you asked chat GPT for a response.

Make the bandits real bastards. Like not the fantasy type of baby-eating bastard but like the real world type of thug bastard that is all too familiar to modern day people.

Fighting them will feel very satisfying.

Instead of money, the bandits demands some useless mundane item from the group. Depending how interested your group is for the reason behind it you spin the story further

Well-written story, as always. Although I always thought that the Backrooms are most effective as horror when there's no controlling them; they're not magic in the traditional sense, something that can be affected by rituals or channelling some ethereal force. They're just unknowable, a break in reality. Maybe you can learn enough to map them, but how or why they come to be are beyond human understanding.

This is actually a really interesting concept. Assassins' Guilds are very common tropes in fantasy but they're rarely female, and I don't think I've ever heard of an organisation of anti-assassins.

Also, 'Midwife of Serpents' is an extremely cool name for the head of an all-female assassins' guild.

hasnt there been some form of the idea floated that tattooine is like some sort of force leyline, everything important naturally occurs around it, near it, on it. Maybe im entirely making it up.

>>97354301
It’s entirely possible that there are some who have presented that as a possible explanation.

But keep in mind that we’re deep into speculative canon. Because official canon is that, nobody’s noticed. Or at least nobody has canonically said anything about it.

But Humans are a creature that is instinctively wired to find patterns (sometimes even if there isn’t really a pattern). So I just can’t accept that absolutely nobody in-universe has noticed how often Tatooine comes up in Galactic history. So one can imagine the possibility of rampant conspiracy theories that might arise from this.

>>97353960
Isn't it located near the end of a fairly relevant hyperspace lane? Which is why Hutts want to have presence there, not even counting money from having podracing championships there, which is also competition to those in Malastre?

>>97354731
Canonically Jabba has a presence there because Gardulla (the female Hutt you can see behind Jabba in TPM) created the Boonta Eve on Tatooine using Damask's money in order to slowly try and gain power from under Jabba's influence, but he took over it which is why we see him presenting in TPM. Presumably the Boonta Eve is more popular than the Malastare championships
It's all in the Plagueis book
As for the hyperspace thing, it's in a spur of the Triellus Trade Route which is the biggest trading route in the Outer Rim, but the main popular part does not go through Tatooine
