New Game: Should I be using Entity or Classic API?

It's not clear to me which I should be building my game upon. Is there a rule of thumb or any advice here?

Thanks!

Currently, we should use both Entity and Classic API in one game.

Entities only provide new access patterns for current accounts and data systems. It is not yet a complete replacement for Classic APIs. Moreover, using Entity API in the same game will not change the behavior of the existing APIs, you can safely use them both at the same time.

At the current stage, most Entity API and Classic API are for different usages. Please choose them for your needs.
