Talk: Game mechanics

I came here from a Google search hoping this site's information on game mechanics might help me understand how to do one of the first tasks in the game -- a task that already has me wanting to quit because it's so blasted unintuitive to this customer experience manager of a large software company: how to load Astrid's gear into the plane in the opening scene. I wish the game designers had spent anywhere near the effort on UI as they spent on art.
