Greenlit: article on Hand-holding and player freedom

actual name pending

As long as it's clear that "tutorial overabundance" and "player freedom" actually aren't inherently related (as in, you could have way too many tutorials sprinkled throughout an open-world exploration game, or you could have no tutorials at all in a very linear game), I think it's definitely an interesting idea to compare how the series has progressed in terms of the amount--and necessity--of tutorials, as well as the overall linearity. This gets an approval from me.

Alright, I'll start drafting when life decides to give me a short rest, which hasn't happened yet this week :(

If anyone else wants to input post here

I wish you luck on this. Interesting topic, but it being a good article really hinges on the writing. Can't wait to read it when you are done though. :D

I see exactly where the original poster is coming from. The difference is that this generation of gamers are a whole different group of gamers. This subject has my attention for sure.
