Modern Pokemon games hold your hand too much. (beehaw.org)

I am playing Pokemon Violet at the moment and it is a total bore. I have played the game so many times and I just want to run around catch Pokemon and battle.

I do not need another tutorial about what a Pokemon center is. Or a tutorial to tell me that I need to use a Pokeball to catch a Pokemon.

Can we get a "I've played this game 100 times" mode where it just saves the tutorials and lets us play the game?

I think modern games in general hold your hand too much. Some small level of hand holding/tutorial is fine, but so many take it way too far. I've gotten bored of a lot of games before they actually started because of that.

I am having trouble thinking of an example, but I know for sure that I have turned off a few games because the tutorial was just long and boring.

One of them was Pokemon Arcus, or however it is spelled.

Destiny 2 was one I wanted to mess around with a little recently, since the game itself was interesting enough to me. Got bored probably nowhere close to the end of the long and boring tutorial section. There are others that I can't recall the name of, too. Obviously not memorable enough.
