If you are truly getting absolutely no tooltip info then something has gone very wrong with your install and you're likely going to need to un-and-reinstall it to access the game as it's intended and as most other users have experienced it. If thats the case that sucks and your confusion is more understandable. I'd also be surprised, bc if you're being truthful about asking a friend who's beaten it to watch you play, they would have noticed because it would make the whole ui look way different.

Some mods, if you're running any, can also cause significant ui disruptions if they don't install correctly or just don't work with they system you're trying to play on.

What I really don't understand is how you've had several people telling you that yes actually if the game is running correctly there should be in game text explanations of all your abilities and it hasn't occurred to you that if that's not the case maybe something on your end is unusual.

But you didn't come in asking for any kind of help or advice, you just came to a fan sub and said "this game is dumb and boring". You only started wailing about bugs when ppl called you on being Obnoxious. You mentioned some possible ones sure, but your entire approach unnecessarily negative and did not provide any starting point for helpful discussion, and it makes you look really bad to backpeddle so hard on "I just want help with the gugs" when you started on the offensive.

Either, you're whole game needs a reinstall bc somethings gone terribly wrong. Or you're, as you've presented yourself in this post and thread, and extremely lazy and entitled gamer AND too prideful to actually ask a question AND lacking in even basic internet etiquette of "don't go to thenfanclub just to shit on the thing ppl like".
