I give "Fata Deum" steam next fest demo 30 minutes!
I get a little bit lost and confused in the first 30 minutes of Fata Deum, but I'm sure there is a cool game in there somewhere.

23:00 Usually chapters are helpful in these videos -- but I really am completely lost in this tutorial.
The issue of hand holding so much in a tutorial is that players can get lost easier. Make players lives easy with simple UI and basic instructions, that are anchored on screen instead of wherever the cursor is.
I was really looking forward to this game, it has the bones of something great. The interface is letting it down. I don't usually make criticisms here, but this just made me a bit sad.
