The game needs more tutorials for newcomers

I think the game needs more tutorials. I'm a longtime PoE1 player and enjoy modes like Ruthless. Now I'm playing co-op with my partner (she's new to video games but picks things up quickly), and I feel like there are too many things I have to explain that aren't well represented in the game. In this regard, the skill videos are a perfect example of how to create good in-game tutorials, as they explain abilities and their synergies. With that in mind, I believe the game could benefit from:

- A tutorial on how orbs work. Perhaps the Bloated Miller could guarantee a Transmutation Orb and, as part of the tutorial, a video could explain how orbs work and how item rarity functions. Similarly, other enemies or explorable campaign areas could grant other orbs alongside a mini-tutorial explaining their mechanics.

- Regarding orbs, a tutorial should trigger when unlocking the Salvaging Bench to explain the quality of superior items.

- Another tutorial covering the use of the Artificer's Orb and runes.

- An additional tutorial on Support Gems after obtaining the reward from Renly.

- Not entirely necessary, but a mini-tutorial or tooltip explaining the three defensive mechanics and their strengths and weaknesses (from a campaign perspective) could be helpful.

So happy that this topic will be addressed!
That's really good suggestion. What would be even better to provide user some options to apply some crafts as a reward for quests.
When after quest is done you have an option to apply some crafts to an item. For example slot to put an item and then an option to apply some crafting tools like quality, sockets, exalts etc.
They covered it in the podcast and it's planned.
I bet their "solution" to player movement speed issues will be a crafting tutorial for 10% movement speed boots(rigged transmute roll) as first quest you get after coming to town. xD
Did you ever tell her to watch YT or wikipedia?

Why not?

do you know why there arent tutorials in this game?

because a proper tutorial to this game, would be a fucking 7 hour youtube video.

thats why.

and the fact, that the devs literally want new players going in blind.

its been basically stated by multiple people in ggg. multiple times.
I think there needs to be a tutorial on gear. Or at least a breakdown somewhere on what each stat does and it's affect on your character. I'd also like a tutorial on end game gear I don't think I'm doing it right. It seems like I don't get upgrades ever, which is why I want a real crafting system. But I think I don't know how to use the gear system the way GGG wants me to. So an explanation would be nice

Hehe, read the post entirely! And the supporter packs on my profile ;)

Playing with my gf made me realise how many systems are just mechanized in my head and the game doesn't tell you anything to interact with.
