    I agree that sci-fi/fantasy is not the best for learning - even in my native language they use words in fantasy literature that you will most likely never need and it might be just confusing a learner.

    Super interesting, thanks for sharing! If you feel comfortable, could you share a forum where you see these tips? The original creator of this community put a couple of forums into our sidebar but I have never heard of them and was wondering if one of these is the one you use?

      I remember long time ago I tried to play games like Kingdom Come: Deliverance it was difficult but eventually realized it might not be a good idea, some of the vocab there I will probably never use. And they might be speaking in a more medieval manner. So I switch to more current day type of game like that broken sword series with as little fantasy as possible.

      For forum, no particular site to recommend, I mostly just search on google. Which leads to sites like Quora, reddit or Language learner forum listed on the right or blogposts, Youtube and etc. Example on Quora https://www.quora.com/What-French-book-is-a-good-and-simple-read-if-French-is-your-second-language Forgot to mention another criteria I look for is that the book must be available digitally.

        I also tried with Diablo to do this, but I had the same problem.

        Ah thanks! Okay so the language learner’s forum seems useful. I have to take a look at the unilang forum to see if it is active enough to advertise here.
