Our take on Elder Sign: Omens
The bounce point comes when assembling the investigator team: players who prefer a small, fixed cast may hit a wall among more than 30 characters with unique abilities. Another possible stop is the seven Ancient Ones, whose varying difficulty may complicate threat selection.
