I remember when it used to be shocking to me that people never read the manuals that came with their games. I was like "but the manual tells you exactly how to play the game. It tells you what every button does. There's even a map of the first two levels!"
Then I started posting on videogame sites and got called a nerd. Evidently the correct procedure when buying a new game was 1) rip open the box, as in actual ripping, not just opening, 2) extract the game, 3) discard the contents into the nearest trash can. 4) Plug the game in and be baffled about how to play. Play for years without knowing that you could do that. Be amazed that I knew some control that they never knew existed. Get kind of resentful about it and call me weird for RTFM.
Yeah, it's a default option in the settings.

Counterpoint: I was 7 and didn't speak English yet.
I miss games coming with manuals. Not even physical copies do that anymore :sadness:
