Hey Collectonian,
Wanted to let you know I'm revamping the tutorial to make players use the Scan and Status commands before they can proceed to combat and there will be added information about how Agility works and how to use it to your advantage. This should make the tutorial fight much clearer.
I am also looking into the incompatibility with the game with OBS: this has been a pain for me and some other players, so it's a high priority for me.
It is a bug that you don't go straight to combat after each of your party members selects a skill or item, I'm also looking into that.
As for the large amount of information given at the start of the game, it's a difficult problem. The game is non-linear and knowing how to craft is an essential part of the game, so I'm not sure if there's another place to put that information. The information from the crafting tutorial is available in the Crafting UI and it's much more intuitive once you actually start using it, so my hope is players will still progress even if they don't get everything immediately.
After I fix these issues, I hope you'll try the game and enjoy it much more next time!
