There are: Lies, damned lies, and statistics
- Mark Twain
0.8% have completed the first 5 training missions (includes the Advanced Combat Tutorial, which is very difficult for a newcomer)
Although I'm PC (master race, obviously
), been playing for over a year, bought numerous ships (Anaconda included), tried trading, smuggling, engineering, mining, combat and exploration (been to SagA* and back) I haven't completed all training missions.
To be honest I left at mission #2, unfinished. As I recall it was meant to teach SC, station approach and whole landing procedure. While I could exit SC, approach station, ask for permission and land successfully no problem, the game kept telling me that I exit SC wrong hence I need to re-do the whole exit before we can continue. So I said screw this, left tutorial and went straight into the universe.
Despite not finishing the tutorials and not contributing toward statistics I see myself rather accomplished player. I may not play on regular basis, my achievements aren't astonishing. But I keep playing, I do what I like and I wasn't pushed away by steep learning curve. The only major issue I see that can scare people away is this: niche title aimed toward certain group of players. In general they will like it. People outside that group - in most cases they will not.
