I've been playing this game for years and suddenly it has unskippable tutorials with unskippable voiceovers that it's forcing me to go through. I'm done, never playing again.

Purrsneakitty,

I have achievements on this account going back to Feb 6 2016. This is indeed my second account, but I've been playing ON this account for just shy of two years now, but when me and the boys played it again in October when it went on sale and the number of players was up, I was forced into an incredibly long engineer tutorial. I exited out of it but it forced me to complete it before being able to actually play.

I'm not sure what the generic 2 minute tutorial is, but that's definitely not what I was forced into.

While I may have been drunk and over reacted with this review that I don't remember making, if I had been forced to do that engineer tutorial the first time I played the game, I would have rage quit and never gone back.

Hi there Eric Harris!
Sorry to hear that you can't recommend us, and we hope we can earn your positive review!
Since Guns of Icarus is one of the true Co-Op games, 4 people with 1 life on 1 ship, we need to make sure we prepare you for the challanges, to make your first experiences as frictionless as possible, for both sides! - It's never fun to be overwhelmed.
We did everything in our power to make the tutorial SHORT, VOICED and FUN.
It can be completed within 2 minutes!
If that is not your cup of tea, we're really sorry, but no unauthorised personel on deck :P

Fly safely,
- B'Elanna

PS. You might have been playing on a different account, as your first achievement shows to have been unlocked on Oct 29th I am assuming this is a new account. Unfortunately the system would have no way of knowing your true genius :P
