So I am trying to get into table top gaming as a hobby and I came across a local group near me that meets up every weekend to exclusively play TI. Maybe this is the wrong game to start getting into this hobby with, but it was the first group I found when searching so I joined their discord and they seem like chill people, welcoming of new players.
BUT. I have read that this game can take a very long time for a session, especially with newer players where you have to explain everything to them.
So in the interests of not slowing the group down and alleviating some of my social anxiety in the process, I thought I would ask here for some tips for new players like me.
I've watched one rtfm video on YouTube kind of explaining the rules, but I feel like that doesn't help me a lot because I learn better by actually doing the thing (and asking questions). I plan to watch a few more videos, but I want to meet up for a game soon and am honestly pretty nervous about it lol.
So yeah, any little tips I could take from here as well would be very appreciated.
