[QUOTE="Brandon Debes, post: 17612, member: 229"] While I agree with your eventual premise that FarSight should focus energy on making and fixing tables rather than producing tutorial videos, I do want to say that I have arguably gotten a lot more out of the tables that have appeared in PHOF and TPA on my console than I did in the arcades thanks specifically to the interactive ruleset explanations in the software. I didn't even realize it until now, but I had very little idea what I was trying to do on some of those tables apart from "don't let the ball drain". For example, I used to play Whirlwind all the time as a kid (and I was a kid, and that's part of it). I knew how to start a couple of the modes, but I had no idea how complex the full ruleset was. After walking through the Whirlwind tutorial in PHOF a few times boy did I get so much more out of that table! I wanted to go back and play the physical game again after that. But I couldn't find one anywhere near me to play. And that's why TPA is so important, however long it takes and however bumpy it is in these early stages. [/QUOTE]
