I've seen several mentions of Megabonk and since it's apparently in my Steam family library I thought I'd try it out. I have no idea what's going on or what to do or anything. Maybe I'm getting too old for new types of games? Or maybe it's just not a kind of game I'm used to, I dunno.

Absolutely no tutorial of any kind, as far as I can see. I hate "character creation" stuff, just let me start the game with a default setup, as *obviously* I won't have a clue what to select until I've played the game a bit and seen what might be useful. Stupid amounts of monsters which apparently all get auto-killed by the game, so I think I just ignore them? Constant pop-ups asking me to select upgrades from options I'm not interested in and know nothing about (see above re character creation) and which keep interupting me trying to get used to the controls and figure out what's going on.

After 7 minutes of play, according to Steam, I've managed to recognise some of the things that trigger pop-ups, so I can avoid them and wander around the map a bit to try to figure out what I'm meant to be doing. I don't see anything of interest, so I think that's it for that game.

Good thing we don't all like the same kinds of games.
