So to get consumers to understand how terrible ribbon is, you're making a game so that people will get the hang of it?
Wouldn't you just call that bad design if people just can't pick it up within a few minutes? Microsoft, this is whats wrong with you, You're so out of touch with the consumer and this video is the cherry on top to prove that fact. I love how you opened the video with "we LISTENED to our customers" clearly not the majority.
I remember a time when there was no chance for another company to compete against Microsoft. Now I am unable to tell if this is a joke? After the brown Zune who knows?
Unless it involves devising great ways to kill off Clippy, I don't want it. Clippy was the worst thing ever. Worse than Microsoft Bob. Clippy must stay dead and never, ever, ever, EVER! be resurrected in any form. Not even in a tutorial like this "game." For that reason alone, this tutorial scores a MAJOR FAIL. It has some use, so its not quite an epic fail, but its pretty damn close just because Clippy is there.
What the fuck is this?! Going to Ancient Egypt to learn how to use Office? Instead of sticking with the nightmare that is Office and devising a ridiculous "learning game" for it, why don't Microsoft spend time making it more user-friendly? I don't want to be patronised by a fucking paper clip if I don't know how to change the margins on my document.
The ribbon menu are more difficult because you must constantly move your eyes around to see because the words are not aligned.
With old-style menus, you just scan once horizontally, then once vertically.
Listen, the new menu design is for "Kids who can't read good", but I don't see why the rest of us should suffer just because it some people don't read (or ironically read only hieroglyphics, see the first demo task in this video).
I think the change was just for bonus justification.
Here's an idea: how about you redesign your stupid, designed-by-committee, scatter-brained interface so that it's actually easier to use. I am honestly shocked that Microsoft is this out of touch.

Why are people so frustrated with this? It's just a neat little game to play in Microsoft Office. Plus it's educational.
