Promise?

yeah, but my like to post count ratio is going way up!

preferably in the middle of the next pvp with BL using zombies. solved personally by Rolf by killing all the BL and their zombies for us. BL can get moon rocks or something lol who cares right?

You totally sound like you pvp, play the game, or even know what game you're talking about. I want everyone to read this post and then let the friendly green words below your avatar saying "game master" sink in.

Its like you think this is the only reason people are going to quit.

+1 Im not stupid this sounds good definitely wouldnt red -1 this

So you're literally saying "keep the aweful tutorial to keep people out"

One person, yourself, made it through while your friends gave up in the tutorial. Sounds like a running theme here.

Coming from someone who probably didnt get their first impression of the game from the tutorial.

Would probably be best to dump them in the wilderness and ask them if they want a simple pop-up tutorial of basic game functions ala Until they formulate something thats a better representation of Wurm, and get select new players to "try" the improve tutorial with like, 1 month free premium time or something as a reward.

Yeah sorta this, an improved tutorial would massively help not just player retention but the number of premium players, and a tutorial that actually shows what Wurm has to offer would be even better.

This is a cop out, a tutorial is the first impressions of a game, and the tutorial is a really bad first impression.

I showed someone new the game years ago, they started the tutorial and in as many words said the game sucks half way through the tutorial. It wasnt until like a year or two later when I forced them to finish the tutorial and had them roll around with me for a bit that they realized it was fun, and they nearly quit before they got out of the tutorial that time too.

Almost everyone I know who has ever tried playing Wurm got as far as the tutorial and then promptly says "This game sucks" and stops playing immediately. It's a poor description and a poor show of what Wurm actually is. It needs to be seriously revised or completely removed, doing this one thing would massively increase numbers of new players. Additionally, there should be some sort of listing or "posting" in starting settlements for deeds looking for new players with a pop up suggestion to check out the board and its location in the starting settlement, because the next biggest issue is the fact that new players who manage to make it past the completely unintuitive tutorial bounce off on how daunting it is to live alone and die a million times to bears and dont know how to do things right because the wiki is outdated. I mean I get a lot of people worked hard on the tutorial, but it hurts way more than it helps. Needs to be changed super hard.
