Tutorials for the not so dummies

When I start playing a new MMO, I always get annoyed with the tutorial. "You can move with the wasd buttons". Oh, really?!
But, the catch is: I don't want to turn it off. Because at about the 20th tip, I'll find something that is relevant. Like: "If you red bar is full, you cannot eat or drink more. You need to use the toilet to reset the red bar.".

Why can't we have a setting that says: "I am an experienced MMO player, don't show me anything that works like in WoW"? I'd love it. (Ok, we could call them Game Specific Tutorials, or something along those lines.)

  1. I much prefer when games dropped you in the middle of a major city and said, "Run with it, chump."
