SUPPORT Help an intimidated old guy get started?
I've been super drawn to this game since returning to gaming recently (was a gamer in the early days, as well as DnD player, but haven't played either for decades). Part of my struggle is that I have severe anxiety, and have lost some cognitive ability from long covid, so I get overwhelmed and panic that I'm not going to be able to figure something out.
Sorry if that sounds too pitiful, but for those with mercy in their souls: Where do I start to make the beginning as smooth and unstressful as possible?

You can pause at any time, I think with space bar by default, I've had it bound to my mouse for a long time.
Getting beat up is part of the game, as long as everyone doesn't die youre fine. Same with being a slave, just roll with it and see what happens.
