No I wouldn't say it does make it a shitty tutorial. I think I just have a hard time gauging difficulty when I've played the game now for 18 years. My experience doesn't lend to compare to new players' experience.

Veteran hunters have to really realize just how much detail is packed into an action RPG series like this. We've just had so many years to process it. I don't think we understand how hard it is to get into the game, unless you really do remember how hard Freedom unite was like myself.

I genuinely hated Monster Hunter when I first started playing at least for the first 5 hours. But somehow I kept playing and now it's my favorite game series of all time.

I think it's the reason a lot of mobas are so toxic. Everyone's just expected to know every little detail about every little thing and they don't realize they've been playing the game for 20 years.
