P2W games are like, “You got 2 free skips! Let’s try using one now on this 5-minute timer.” & You know I’m waiting the full 5 minutes because after the tutorial every cooldown is like 8+ hours.

Forced tutorials in general suck major balls. Good game design teaches you with gameplay. For example I love that Mega Man X (SNES) has a whole level to teach you how to play, that does not feel like a tutorial at all.

It only makes sense when the gold is given specifically for that purpose, if you skip the tutorial then you wouldn’t get it anyway. Basically makes it a free minor upgrade.
