Many of us do it through pure experimentation, but some prefer to be told how everything works in advance. Regardless of which side you're on personally, it's unfair to act like the other end of the spectrum doesn't exist. Seriously, no one likes anything forced in the video game that they play, so the same thing is applicable to the game's tutorials.

Very true, don't need to force tutorials on those that don't want them, but also handy to have for those that do. Plenty of room for that middle ground option where needed.

onii chan Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 I just play them through for about 2 minutes and after that I would prefer to just get straight into the game to experience the rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of the biggest mistakes some of these games companies make by pushing everything as a must without making it optional and we all really hate that.

Justin11 Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Sure, it would've been straightforward for any gamer to get along, but such wouldn't be interesting when it's made easier to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head_Hunter Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 (edited) Yes, I make use of the game tutorials when I'm seeing the game for the first time without any background knowledge around the game. That's where tutorials comes in, to help me get acquainted with the game. Edited December 2, 2021 by Head_Hunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PGen98 Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Agreed, it would be foolish not to include a tutorial in a game, it's essential for newer players to learn how to actually play a game. Boblee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
