Anyone misses manuals? Manuals were an intergral part of games for a long time. Whenever I open a new game first thing I do is to smell it. And opening a fresh new manual never gets boring. Now we have one page of "manual". Lol. Manuals are victim of 8th gen.

You dont know what you have until its gone...



I never cared for them. As long as I figure out how to play, It's fine.



I laugh everytime I compare the manuals fron DS games (pretty big manuals in 4 or 5 languages) with the 3DS ones (literally one piece of paper that says the manual is digital somewhere).



You know it deserves the GOTY.

I never was a person that read instructions when playing a game since most had a mandatory tutorial that u had to do anyway. And the ones that didnt were close enough to other games that it was easy enough to figure out

With that being said, I did like some of the drawings and shit that they had
