the only manual I've used was the one for zelda ocarina of time it was the oficcial nintendo manual. But later on figured out that the one from prima's strategy guides was the best explained one.

part of the fun is finding your own strategy! i liked the "getting started" they had in older sierra games.. that was enough

Yeah, tutorials is way better. Like In Baldurs Gate. If you didnīt want to talk to the tutor, you didnīt. NWN was kind of like the same, but that tut was way too long.

Thinking about it Now I think the tutorials are way better. I think every SHooters games Need Tutorials, and RPG's Too. Why? because you have to read nothing the tutorial is visible.

But they should be optional. The tutorial in Black and white was killing me. 1― hour of learning how to change the camera angle and smack your creature around. And you couldnīt even skip it! I hated that.

What killed me about Black and White is that the tutorial was about the most fun part of the game. I wanted to play games with my creature, not shepherd pathetic people. The plus side is that I only paid $20 for the game.
