[WIP] Complete beginner, advice welcome

Good evening everyone, M45 here awaiting spine surgery. I was looking for activities safe to do while recovering that would not involve bending and twisting my lower back, even by mistake.

I came across a small kit that my mother got from a crafts magazine in the '90s and kept it. Long story short, she kept a bunch of crafting related stuff for her retirement but lost most of her sight due to maculopathy, she already disposed of most stuff but this small kit came with needles and DMC threads (which I am told is a a good brand) and everything needed except a proper scheme so she decided to keep it anyway.

I decided to try it out to see if it would work as something to do while watching TV / YouTube while recovering.

Turns out it is quite relaxing and mentally low intensity enough to keep me entertained, however I have no frame of reference to tell if I'm doing a decent job or not (mother is still with us but legally blind now). You may say that it doesn't matter as long as I am entertained but at this point I'm curious to see if it is something I could pursue or just drop it after the recovery from surgery.

Curious to see what expert thinks.

Thanks in advance.

A question about Hemlock Vale, new player blind playthrough

Hi everybody, I am currently playing through the Hemlock Vale campaign and having a blast, however I am a little puzzled over the resolution of one of the scenarios. I will put it inside a spoiler tag just in case.

>!So, yesterday I got to the end of "The Thing in the Depths" on Day 3 (Daytime). I was able to succesfully negotiate with River Hawthorne which asked for help so I took control of her.!<

>!I managed to get the turtle to the starting location (literally at the last possible moment... it was clutch) and get one of the "positive" resolutions, however, despite surviving to the end under my investigators control and asking for help, decreased my relationship level with River...!<

>!Am I reading this wrong? I tried reading multiple times and got confirmation from the ArkhamCards app so it isn't a "Lost in translation" thing (Italian)...!<

>!Nice way to say thanks, River !<

Thanks in advance for any reply.

Have a nice day.

How you guys feel about mixing and matching original and 2.0 cards and investigators?

Hi all, I am a very new player that just got his feet wet with the new updated chapter core box. I immediately fell in love with the game (played two handed solo so far, plan to attempt true solo later on) and I just impulse bought the original core set since it was still available in my country.

I know that the new chapter should be compatible with the old stuff but how do you guys feel about mixing and matching? Are there things that just don't work or break somehow the game?

I'm excited to play more and more campaigns. Cheers everyone.
