There's all kinds of opinions out there like it really isn't the same game once you have the airship in the WoR. If you are a first-time player it depends how much you want to research ahead of time.

If you want excitement and mystery don't look ahead. The game gets easier if you level. It also depends on main factors like the order you do the adventure and what characters you use. Are you prepared?

If you live the mystery you become more cautious and open-minded to discover the unknown imo. If you've looked ahead then you're simply gathering bits of pixels on some emulator and/or electronic device of some kind.

Have fun with whatever you choose I think I'm running out of advice here.
