I tired warframe, game is awsome, but for a novice starting alone is kinda meh. You just don't understand shet, you don't have warframes orther than the first you picked, you don't have weapons, you don't know what you should do.
I agree with you, it can be a bit overwhelming for beginners but the community there is super helpful, at least in the server I was playing, and they were always helping new people, invinting to clans, etc.
