This is going way off-topic, but didn you ever play Silent Storm? That might have
some AAR worthy material. Heck, it even has a Finn called Otto in it.
(That is, if you like AMAZING turn base strategy)
Ok, as for the topic.
I'm a bit mixed about tutorials. Some games do it well, like Chivalry (and M&B IIRC)
where you access a new arena via the main menu screen and you can try stuff
out, and Chivalry's tutorial is spiced with humor, it starts with a black screen
and a text saying: "3 years before the MP game". I can appreciate that, I'm not
forced to go through it.
Then there's games where the first mission is just hand holding, with text and
puzzles you complete by just doing what the text tells you, those I don't like.
Of course, it's all about how you like your games. Generally, I like strategy and sims,
so I am prepared for the fact that I need to read a lot of stuff to fully learn the
game. Like Black Shark, it took me quite a while (and help from Arclight) to
finally lock and fire my first Vikhr, but at the same time, it felt pretty damn
great.
As long as a game doesn't force me to go through a tutorial, I'm ok with that,
but please leave the option to learn by yourself in.
