[D4] How much randomness is too much?

Not only. Noob is someone stupid, slow learning etc…

On the contrary - the game need to teach the noobs how to play with holding everything first (AI in total control), hands only then (follower) until finally the noob evolves into a casual with playing by himself.

More like: “Here is the optimal way of doing this. Let me show you.” After the task is finished: “Now you can try yourself”. After the player does it, an evaluation will happen.

They will push themselves if the game is good enough. Mostly casual players in the game simply shows the game lacks something.

This is different. Mobile games are for noobs and casuals per se. We talk PC games.

Yes, that is the learning stage. It will be like an advanced tutorial for the slower learning players.

I’d say teach anyone how much he wants and then let him jump how deep he wants.

This option should exist of course. If anyone wants to discover the hot water by himself - let it be so.
