current gen games making you go through 30 min. tutorials unappreciation thread

[Lil Bape the PostGod]

cant stand it breh...i hate opening scenes of video games now...i know that shyt is just a lesson on how to press a button for like the first 30 min. or so

what was the first game to start doing this?

kids these days are too stupid to figure it out on their own

I never understood why they just don't make it optional. Am I really too dumb to figure out which button to press to make Mario jump.

part of the reason I can't get into games nowadays I just wanna pick up and play not sit through a half hour of "how to" shhit

I cosign 100%. I think it started in RPGs.

well when modern games don't have this, everyone complains about the 'learning curve'

do you remember when you actually had to read the instructions?

 

[Hagendas]

its worst when its a sequel sighhh like we did not already go through this in the original

you see how thin the instruction manuals are. Just one page that says look online.

saves paper though so i am not mad.

shyt is the worst..."Now press the right stick to look around."

yeah, it's basically all the legal mumbo-jumbo, and maybe a pic of the controller layout

I really don't mind the tutorials, as long as they're quick, and don't dwell on obvious shyt. they should also be optional. I was on the second playthrough of some game recently, and was pretty bummed I had to do all the tutorial shyt again

Yep and if you're a very, very casual player it's terrible.

I played assassins creed once after I bought it, picked it up again about 3 weeks later, forgot what all the buttons were DVD turned it off

I just stick to gta, call of duty or sports games.

Agreed completely. I'd prefer the games to actually have instruction manuals like they used to. One of the reasons I hate/don't start playing new games is because usually when I want to play videogames, I only want to put in 20-30 minutes, in that time in most new games I'm just being told what buttons to press.

First game I remember doing it was the Zelda on N64...now this thread got me wondering what the actual first game was that did it, because it's a trend in gaming now.

 

[Lil Bape the PostGod]

theres so much extra shyt now...like when they tell you to slide the cursor over until you can barely see the logo or some shyt...popping in a game for the first time takes like an hour before ur free to run around

this generation sucks.

You could rent a game and have to wait 2hrs for patches to DL
