Blah blah blah blah this game doesn't suit my taste so the hobby is dead and going to collapse at any second.
I didn't say that at all.
I think there is a problem with over-tutorializing in AAA games. I don't think they are going away, or the hobby will collapse. I just think of the opening experience of Elden Ring versus Jedi Survivor. One puts you in the action and has a 30 minute optional tutorial dungeon, the other has tutorials pop up four hours in the game.
I don't play for long stretches, maybe two hours at a time. It's not satisfying for me to play a game three or four times and still be in tutorials. For me AAA games are the absolute worst at this.
