People's reaction to negative Zelda reviews reminded me of this gem.

I'll admit I haven't played THAT many open world games, but I've never played a game where you can just jump to any segment without having to learn anything about the game. Even in open world games, you can't just do any segment you want...you still have to get there, and there may be some challenge along the way.

Still, the game didn't force you to deviate from your plans, it was just too (understandably) hard for you to do at the time. It could still be done without going out of your way. The tutorial area teaches you everything you need to know in order to accomplish pretty much any task in the game.

It didn't though. I didn't know anything about bugs, till now. Because I thought they were not important. Just background things. I never bothered to think. To run after a butterfly, or a cricket. Just focused on towers. And was in the mind set. Everythings different from past zelda games. Bugs are probably not useful anymore.

Well, it does...you don't need to use bugs to accomplish anything in the game. There is an area that introducing you to cooking. Obviously it's not going to give you all the recipes, but you learn the fundamentals that you need to succeed in the game. You learn how to cook and the benefits of doing so in the tutorial area, whether or not you choose to explore the mechanic further is up to the player.
