To follow up on that, definitely get a cheap keyboard for your PS4 if you don't have one already, so that you can tell people that you are new and make sure that they are not going to lock you out of boss battles or try to get you to skip cutscenes. If they aren't OK with that, you can quit the duty and try again in 30 minutes.
