I've been saying for quite some time now that most of the major japanese developers now create extensive tutorials with games around them.
I know, there are still a few good games, but the major franchises I like have taken that turn. And it's really annoying.
That is why I think Demon's Souls and Dark Souls are a really nice breath of fresh air. It doesn't hold your hand. It gives you a system and it's up to you to find the proper way to use it and maximize the results.
The newest games in series like Final Fantasy and Zelda are now really long tutorials where the joy of discovery is lost compared to their older titles.
So while I don't think their games suck, I do agree with what Jonathan Blow expressed in that indie thing video that was circulating here recently.
