Just found a bug that only happen when players are rapidly skipping dialog. The writer in me want to mark the bug as "Won't fix".

@grumpygamer The responses are a whole lot of things I don't like seeing in a game, as a non-speedrunner player. It's up there with forced tutorials.

In some games, I've already been through dialogs and don't want them again or they display at an absurdly slow pace like I'm on a 300bps modem connection.

Introducing a budget, getting slower, etc? I'd be tempted to just put the game down and not return.

@grumpygamer your post was, and I understood it. I wanted to counter the apparent sadists responding. Now, about telling people to relax... ;)
