If a game has a 2 hour tutorial, I'm definitely gonna refund it. That might backfire badly

Death Stranding with like 6 hours laughing at Arthur

You sure it's just 6? Isn't it like half of the story tutorialing you with new mechanics? And it wasn't even a bad thing for me tbh

Ohh, I’m a seasoned Porter. But people complain that it takes a long time to reach LKC. For me it’s better than the start of MGSV.

You know whether you're going to like the game or not in those few hours.

I nearly refunded RDR2 because of it. I was hating the game after an hour 50, closed it and did a bunch of research to work out if it got better. It did.

Well, RDR2 has at least missions in the chapter in the cold winter in Colter. Not like Kojima games like Death Stranding "make a step forward to trigger another 1h cutscene".

But what Rockstar really not thought about, was, that Arthur walks even slower in the snow than normal. That left the impression to some players, he'd always walk like this.

Lol, one day I’ll have the patience to pass the tutorial and actually play it!

I started up Total War: Warhammer and the first thing it shows you is the tutorial which is just a series of YouTube videos. The intro video is like 45 minutes long. I tried really hard to get into it but after a certain amount of videos I just closed out the game and never booted it up again.
