P2W games are like, “You got 2 free skips! Let’s try using one now on this 5-minute timer.” & You know I’m waiting the full 5 minutes because after the tutorial every cooldown is like 8+ hours.
There was a P2W that I broke by doing that. Couldn’t progress.
A great solution to the problem is not playing such games!
Gotcha games in a nutshell

What? How? Why?
Every time a game makes me feel like I’m required to pay to get anywhere it’s not on my device for much longer. I’m more susceptible to subscriptions though…
They wouldn’t make these games if they didn’t work.
Part of their shtick is to get you to make any purchase at all. Then you might go on to spend hundreds! Or you might quit. But in some sense that’s also good because the plan was never for you to play for free.

I probably still wouldn’t have the money, but I’d have way more guitar pedals!
Does this mean that we won’t get any of the famous Stamets memes on Monday?

Forced tutorials in general suck major balls. Good game design teaches you with gameplay. For example I love that Mega Man X (SNES) has a whole level to teach you how to play, that does not feel like a tutorial at all.

Was it Egoraptor? I didn’t even recall which Youtuber made me realise this. If yes, he’s right.
It only makes sense when the gold is given specifically for that purpose, if you skip the tutorial then you wouldn’t get it anyway. Basically makes it a free minor upgrade.
YOURE STUCK IN A TUTORIAL NOW BYITCH YOURE ONLY ALLOWED TO PRESS ONE BUTTON
Hail and well met, knight-aspirant. It is said in the scrolls of battle mastery of olde that you press the X button for a light attack.
The best tutorial I ever played was one for a twenty years game called Silent Storm.
You go through nearly every single action you’ll need to perform to actually play the game in that one intro level and the only thing you cannot do is take what is “nailed” to the floor and destroy the ground itself or the escape vehicle.
Besides that, it’s free for all.
Far Cry Blood Dragon has hands down the best tutorial ever created
To jump, jump!
