I know what you mean. In this case it is lecture format and the intent is to show enough to get new users comfortable enough to then refer to the user manual, videos, wiki or with another class like; Character Creation, DM 101, or Effects.

And for reference, their are a couple Character creation classes in the next couple of days;
- Vampire 5; https://fantasygroundscollege.net/events/v5vtm-intro-and-character-creation-4/
- Savage World: https://fantasygroundscollege.net/events/savage-worlds-swade-etu-intro-and-character-creation/
- D&D 5E: https://fantasygroundscollege.net/events/dnd5e-character-creation-101-36/
- D&D 5E in German; https://fantasygroundscollege.net/events/character-creation-in-german-charaktererstellung-dnd5e-auf-deutsch/
and lots more, plus anyone can request a class as needed.
