He then says "Your game is broken if it has a tutorial". I distinctly remember playing Zelda: TP and getting the wooden sword, and the little girls and boys telling me how to strike. So basically, Zelda: TP is a broken game.

Good thing I know that now. I won't be finishing that game.

You're taking the notion of a "tutorial" to the extreme. A few instructions here and there don't make a tutorial IMO.

I agree the article has some flaws though.

So there's a differentiation between a "few instructions" and a "tutorial"?  They're one in the same.  Granted, this is a small tutorial, but still one nonetheless.

 

It's an "extremely small tutorial" at most, which takes us right back to my claim that you were taking his words to the extreme.
