Heroes Underpowered?

[Irish Daigle]

In our LNoE sessions I will always choose my Heroes randomly, as I do in most games where forming a lasting attachment to a character is less than likely. The fun of games like LNoE is how much variety there is, not just in scenarios but in character combinations and unlikely duos forming the likes of which even the most daring zombie stories hesitate to imagine. Playing different characters gives me a chance to utilize different skill-sets within the game.

Sure, Jake has an absurdly powerful set of skills that make him a mobile-miss-machine, but if I had to play using that strategy of gameplay every time I'd just be bored to tears after three or four games. Winning isn't as important as enjoying the experience.
