Maybe you should check some lets plays instead of watching tutorials. Just an episode or two to get an idea of what the game is and whether it seems to be up your alley or not.
The lets player will probably explain some mechanics as they come up while they're playing (at least in the beginning to help new viewers unfamiliar with the game) and that should be a lot easier to digest than someone purely explaining a bunch of game mechanics in one go.
What is "let's plays/player"?
A video of someone playing the game, on somewhere like YouTube. You get to watch someone else (the "lets player") play, and use all the mechanics.
Okay I'll give that a shot, thanks
You could also try Twitch. Most smaller streamers are open to answering viewers' questions (and bigger ones probably would be, too, but they just can't because of volume.)
