Reading up on the game online even before playing is a major zoomer problem. Just go in blind, you’ll have the most fun. I fondly remember screwing up my build in ds1

This doesn't work if you're a conscientious 'tist.
If I'm forced to play a game blind, I get obsessed over actual numbers behind things and my fun is ruined until I learn how things scale.
This is especially bad in janky games made by retards, where some options become clearly inferior later on and you don't know which until you reach that point in game.
>When IZJS/TZA came out, the job system fucked me up because you can't change jobs and there are definitely unoptimal job combinations.
On the latest Switch and Xbone version you can re-job, though I think you might still be stuck with your chosen quickenings and espers, so changing license boards won't be viable after early on.
