Hello! I was looking for a good system to start a JoJo TT RPG with my friends, and I stumbled across Spirits & Glamour and was really impressed with what I saw. While I haven't purchased it yet, I did notice that this was also being worked on. At this stage in development, which one would you recommend (or are they unique enough to both be viable)? I like the more in-depth Tendency creation mechanics here, but I'm unsure as to the major differences between the two games besides those. Either way I'm looking forward to playing at least one of them!
