My biggest tutorial pet peeve is the ones that force you to do the tutorial before you get to do anything else. Gacha games are very guilty of this, in fact I picked up and dropped Dislyte on 3 separate occasions because the tutorial completely restricts the player from doing anything until a good hour or two into the game. The WORST possible thing you can do is completely take away agency from the player, because you've immediately defeated the purpose of a video game. Tutorial or no.

Monster Hunter World and Rise are really guilty of this, so much so that I haven't made a new character in a long ass time and I still haven't bothered playing through more of Rise.

Inscryption has a pretty good tutorial. Since on the outside it's a pretty cryptic game, it's easy to be confused about the rules. That's why the first time we are playing the game it shows one mechanic at a time, with a very short explanation. Only the basics are explained, because the game assumes that the player will figure out the intricacies of the system eventually. Not only that, but since it's a roguelike, even if you lose because you didn't fully take advantage of the rules, you will have infinite chances to truly understand the game later down the line.

Ultrakill does this as well. It tells you only the basics of the mechanics, including when you get new weapons, and then lets you figure the rest out. With how quickly you can get back into the fray, and the fact that there's a whole nearly endless wave fighting gamemode that you can access at any time in the game right from the start, allows for players to test their skills and get better at the game at their own pace.

My favourite Tutorial ever is kind of an obvious one for personal reasons. Transformers Fall of Cybertron. In that Tutorial you play as Bumblebee who was knocked out of a shootout on the bridge of an autobot cruiser trying to get off the planet. A crane from the rival ship with Decepticons hellbent to not only keep you in Cybertron’s orbit but are also hellbent on making that the tomb of every autobot on that ship managing to miss barely. You start on the ground with Rachet, the medic checking Bumblebee’s optics which is moving the camera and asking how they are, leading to a prompt asking if the default analog stick controls are satisfactory. After which you managed to shoot a few cons off the bridge and get a message from the one leading the charge… Megatron, the very leader of the Decepticons directing his attention on the autobot leader. Optimus Prime. Claiming that the the ship you’re on will be torn piece by piece before it even has a chance to leave. Prime leaves to lead a counter attack and while that happens you’re tasked with powering the defences after Decepticon forces began their boarding party with an attack on the orbital defences. From here you learn the rest. Dashing and sprinting after the ship takes damage and starts catching fire, air dashes after witnessing random bots that were helping you mercilessly sucked into the void of space after a crane was lodged into the ship and shooting and changing the shooting hand with a gun fight where cons are swarming the defence controls. Hell bent on stopping you getting them back online. In these few short hours of a tutorial mission it gives us a glimpse of how desperate each faction is. We see the carnage and the bloodshed and the determination the Decepticons have to just slaughter you all even after they’ve won control of the planet. It’s more than just a tutorial but a intense fight for survival against a force that won’t stop until it’s wiped out the very remnants of the faction that opposed them. Something that becomes more apparent as the game progresses. All in all… get a Xbox 360, find a hard copy on at CEX or something and play FOC. It’s a fantastic game with some really good story telling, fun gameplay and it’s just good! I’d also recommend the first game War for Cybertron as well.

These reasons are part of the reason I love the Yakuza series. The tutorials are a little card of knowledge briefly and succinctly showing you available punching combos while not actually pausing the action. It does have you try out different moves before progressing, but with the no pause in between, it doesn't disrupt momentum and it doesn't feel like the game is trying to hinder you. At the end of the tutorial the game just lets you go to town on enemies with everything it taught you. Throughout those tutorials, you're never stopped by pop-ups and it's not hand holdy to the point where it teaches you how to walk. Just teaches you some basic attack patterns and keybinds, then leaves you alone.

And then on the flipside, almost every major minigame in the series has a horrible MANDATORY tutorial you can't skip even on replay, and rarely do they actually introduce the minigame well. Yakuza 4 doesn't help at all with styling your hostess, Yakuza 0 babies you through one round of business and doesn't explain any of the intricacies, and Yakuza 7 dumps pages of paragraphs and infographics on you for the business management and just hopes you absorbed all that (And does it AGAIN for the shareholders meetings). It shocks me how fluid the combat tutorials are, just for them to drop the ball every time with the side modes.

I think the Hitman:Woa tutorials are very interesting in that regard. In the first game you have a classic tutorial, but it also ties into the story and you need it becuase it's the first game of the trilogy. In the second game they give you an easy target and you even have a "prep time" where you can mess around, set up things, interact with the map so if that's your entry point to the trilogy that's fine, but if it's the second game you play it then it makes for a good first level to get introduced to the new mechanics. You can also replay it and experiment and the challanges only encourage it, teaching you different elimination/guard takedown methods, how to use items to your advantage. I really enjoyed it and didn't feel like a tutorial. The third game just throws you into the action right away lmao.

Shin Megami Tensei III Nocturne and Digital Devil Saga’s tutorials are so straightforward in explaining the gameplay yet provide just the right amount of information “One action costs one icon, striking weakness or landing a critical hit costs half an icon, missing or getting blocked costs two icons, and repelled or drained attacks end your turn. The same is true for the enemy”

I am actually wondering about what people think about the Sonic Frontiers Tutorials. They give you pop ups pretty frequently at the beginning, they give you a prompt for tips during battles that is optional, between every level, they provide movement combo tutorials and whenever you unlock a skill, they put you in a room to try it out. I personally dont mind this butbof course i want to know what other think.

I think one of my favorite "tutorials" I've played is the one in Hollow Knight - it does briefly visualize what buttons to press for actions, but it never interrupts you to say "Press this to do this, then use that to do this." The game encourages you to experiment with the controls as you learn them, and even rewards you - in one room, there's a long pit of spikes that you can't cross with normal methods, as there are no platforms to jump to and your normal jump doesn't give you enough horizontal distance. Most players will think to just turn back and return to this area once they have either a double jump or a dash, but more observant players will be familiar with how the melee attack causes you to bounce away from whatever you strike, and thus will test if the spikes can be bounced off of as well. By doing this, not only do they learn that you can bounce safely on spikes for as long as they can time their melee swings, but they're rewarded with a strong early-game item. Learning this trick early on is especially useful because it becomes an essential tool for some of the more treacherous obstacle courses and boss fights (and is even _required_ for the optional Path of Pain sequence)

One of my favorite type of Tutorials with pause screens, when you already perform an advanced move, by the time the game is supposed to teach you about this move it just won't pause to teach you anymore. But they should still blend in the button prompt to notify player about the initial usage of these moves, otherwise they could get stuck improvising just to figure out how to proceed.

I recommend checking it out if you haven’t seen it

I think a good example of a scaling mechanics to learn is Hi Fi Rush actually. It straight up doesn't tell or give you half the stuff you need to work to a thematic level. Like assists, hard timed hits to activate finishers in the first place (Beat Hits), using your arm as a grappling hook, dodging to the beat to cancel the recovery and do it three times, super moves, and such aren't upgrades, they're all relevant assets of combat that allow you to perfectly do every encounter on instinct than knowledge. But the Production and Quality Assurance arc just restricts you from using all of them as you're likely to just mash for a bit. Only by Rekka herself and then the very humorous first run through Development does it ramp up. Also the whole thing is a satire on corporate development. Like the overly zealous manchild director, the draconian management, the gaslight friendly marketing, etc.

The perfect tutorial in my eyes would be one where the game pauses ONCE. And asks "Hey, this is a shooter, many mechanics from previous shooters also apply here. With that in mind, would you like to: A. Teach you the fundamentals from the beggining of how a shooter works. B. Ignore the fundamentals, but add indicators for game-specific features. C. Show you the button layout and do not show any pop ups. Note: This can be changed in the 'Gameplay' Settings at any time, there is also a copy of the button layout". There, the perfect tutorial

One of my personal favourite tutorials in any video game for me would probably be the Boneworks tutorial. It gives you an outlook on everything you can grab and use from levels in the start and you have the option to go off path for a while and piss about with objects and nullbodies. I realized theres something really for everyone when playing the tutorial. The combat and shooting range, the parkour areas and rooms for people to just break shit and climb like an unattended baby.

And that it would get updated with whole new features, new secrets there are so many hours in those tutorial worlds. With friends and more

The Driver parking lot scene is not a tutorial. There is a separate tutorial in the game. People always make this mistake and it kind of bugs me. In Driver San Francisco Wii, there was also a parking lot level, and that WAS a tutorial, but the original one wasn’t. Also everyone who ever mentions the “tutorial” also mentions how they don’t know what a slalom is, which I personally l think is a pretty low bar not to reach.

Hello, ex-inverted look (y axis) psychopath here. Ridiculous reason why I used to play with inverted controls was my favourite game had it on by default and I was too young to know to change it so I had to learn to play that way. Eventually I got used to it and when I found out you could switch, I just turned it on in other games rather than change it on my favourite. Eventually I realised how stupid that was and went back to default. I believe the control originated from Flying and piloting games where the joysticks were inverted. It depends on how you image an eye ball rotating. Normal controls you imagine looking up is pushing up. But inverted you image the logical movement that an eye ball to look up, you'd need to pull down from the back which would be you moving it down in order for it to look up. It's really hard to explain without visuals but that's the gist of it.
