I just finished the tutorial

January 19, 2012 3:46:29 PM from Elemental ForumsElemental Forums

I must say, I love the feel of the game. Keep in mind, I have only played the tutorial. I think I might have missed a few parts of the tutorial. I will have to go back and let them hold my hand through the whole thing. I think I skipped ahead. 

One thing I did notice right off the top was the wealth of information. Everything has a pop-up with useful info. 

So far I am loving it. It could just be the wow factor for now, time will tell. I will not be able to really get into the game until tomorrow. 

Solid first impression. I am going to find it hard to focus on work and NOT check out the rest of the game.

The tutorial was designed to be a 10-15 minute affair, teaching the basics (cities, units, magic, and battles) in a very streamlined fashion.

We have a system to bring up additional tutorial videos in-game for more advanced topics (of which there are many), and will be adding informative videos up through gold

Will the videos be available on elementalgame.com as well? I just would like some more content

Just finished it as well. I'm surprised how much smoother the game runs and how much better it looks.

Now, sandbox!

it's something we will look into when all the videos are done (and/or closer to release). They are very specific to nitty gritty "how to play the game" topics, however, that may be better suited to the game than a website.

So I guess I must buy the game!

Just about the tutorial, when it is said to go fight the golem, we meet with the NPC but there is no clue about what to do with him, i mean recruit him, etc... i guessed we had to but think about the new players and since it is a tutorial, maybe add a small tip just to be sure on what to do before the fight.

You also need an option to Replay the video.  As it is, when the video ends, it goes away and you've got a big blank box.
