...Are these things people are telling you? Here? Because I'll fight themFor anyone interested in playing a pbta or fitd style game, I highly recommend not listening to anyone on this site. There is a learning curve--you might want to watch an actual play online and it will take 3-4 sessions for everyone to adjust. But they are still basically role playing games. It's not some radically different experience, nor one that you are somehow incapable of understanding because your first rpg was 5e.

You will note that I specifically did not say anything about fighting anyone effectivelyDon't. As I've learned from long experience, it's like wrestling a pig. You both get dirty and the pig gets happy.
Wait, did I say I learned? HA! I never learn .....
