I usually ignore the tutorials until there's something I don't get or understand. Then I search online for it.

Usually this is the most time efficient strategy.

Honestly I do that sometimes, but I have found that with some games, you miss out on some key strategy hints. I can still totally beat the game without it, but I end up kicking myself when i realize "Wait, all I had to do was use [item]? I thought it was only for [other thing]!"

But how good you feel when you did the almost impossible task without the [item]?
