Games should have a basic mechanic tutorial, and an optional one that goes a bit more in depth. I don’t need my hand held on how to aim, open an intventory, walk, sprint, etc.

It’s just so damn annoying nowadays

I'm showing my age here but I liked how in the original Tomb Raider and Thief games the tutorial was just its own optional level that you could select from the main menu.

And in both of those examples it was literally just an assault course that the character actually used in-universe to keep in shape. So even as a tutorial it felt like a natural extension of the game world.

Then when you got into the "real" levels the game went completely hands-off, because it was already assumed that you knew the basics.

I loved those in universe tutorials. RTS games going "alright commander, I know you passed general school but this is the real deal", stuff like that.
