Line 66:
** The tutorial in ''[[Final Fantasy XII]]'' about the license system isn't skippable. (It is, however, thankfully short.)
** Neither are the tutorials showcasing the characters' abilities and some battle maneuvers in ''[[Final Fantasy X]]''.
** As well as ''[[Final Fantasy X
** While tutorials are skippable in ''[[Final Fantasy VIII]]'', several more tutorials were added that weren't present in the Japanese version.
** Many tutorials in ''[[Final Fantasy VI]]'' are skippable, but the tutorial on Gau's Rage mechanic is not. It's not that long though, and it has some entertaining music at least.
** The first ten chapters in ''[[Final Fantasy XIII]]'' are effectively one long tutorial where they introduce the game's mechanics bit by tiny bit.
* Special note goes to ''[[Mega Man Battle Network]]'', where half the time, the boy that saved the net many times now forgets how to kill [[The Goomba|Mettaurs]].
Line 125:
* ''[[Eternal Darkness]]'' forces you to scroll through the tutorials, even if you've already reached [[New Game+]].
* ''[[Dead Space (video game)|Dead Space]]'' tutorials are little windows that pop up explaining something. You can't do anything else until you dismiss them. This is normally not a problem until the one about being in a vacuum pops up - every second spent reading is one less second you have before your air runs out!
** ''[[Dead Space 2]]'' is a little less annoying about this, using the 'learn or die' method for many concepts or using pop ups in quiet areas.

Line 146:
* ''[[Grand Theft Auto San Andreas|GTA: San Andreas]]'' made you complete flight school to progress, despite you being able to fly perfectly fine previously, and despite you never needing to use the maneuvers that the school teaches you.
** But you do get a prize for doing it well enough, so it's not a total time waster.
** It's [[That One Level|horribly frustrating]] though.
** [[Truth in Television]] if you've ever tried to get a pilot's license.
* ''[[Grand Theft Auto IV]]'' spends a good deal of time teaching you the basics of driving, navigating with your GPS, clothes shopping, socializing, melee combat, etc. It's worked into the narrative well, but it's still a bunch of tutorials, and you still can't skip them.
