Yes, I always read it thoroughly before starting a game Sometimes, only for more complicated games Occasionally, if there's something specific I need to look up Rarely, I like discovering everything for myself No, with in-game tutorials, aren't manuals a little redundant?

Not necessarily in detail, since a lot of the information in there doesn't mean much until I've actually played the game and can contextualize it, but I'd usually give it a quick skim, and then reference later as needed. I do the same thing with digital manuals, though even those seem to be disappearing. I'm finding myself really wishing Xenoblade 2 had one, since there's a lot to learn in that game. --- This is my signature.
