If you're posting this then I assume you're a Trails fan, right?

Personally I don't really give a fuck about NPC dialogue and there's nothing wrong with that.

>>380828949
Why are lorefags such fags?

>>380828949

In a shit game like Final Fantasy or Elder Scrolls, 90% of the NPCs have nothing of value to say. Just hours of 'I hate my friend/husband/neighbor, would you go kill him?'

Sometimes, when it's a bioware game, you WANT to skip.

>>380828949
Here's my excuse, my time has actual value and I would rather be browsing /v/ or masturbating rather than read fluff text some intern wrote at the localization studio

>>380829482
Sounds like you should play games that actually care about the world it takes place in.

A-Almost there...

>>380828949

I've only played a handful of games where talking to NPCs actually mean something. Most of them Dragon Quest or Zelda.

I hate maps that you gotta fill out, because I feel like I gotta 100% uncover every map and that takes up so much time

I only skip on ESO about 70 percent of the time because it can get tedious when grinding quests.

I feel like I will never truly enjoy the elder scrolls games since I don't give a single shit about the lore.

Gay.

>>380828949
if the lore is not that interesting enough to make me want to know more or just not entertaining enough for me to go out of my way to look for it, I'm not going to bother, it's their job to make me want to keep finding more pieces of lore.

also if your npc's are inconsistent where I'm constantly wondering if they have more things to say and I have to break the illusion of a normal conversation because they ran out of things to say and start repeating themselves, then I'm probably not going to bother talking to all of them unless they are important characters.
it should be mandatory that you can't interact with people once all their dialogue is spoken
it should be mandatory that you can't interact with people once all their dialogue is spoken
it should be mandatory that- you get the point.

>Skipping dialog

*closes stream*

Never do this in pillars of eternity

>Game has voice acting
>Most of the NPCs are just sidequest givers who don't have anything interesting to say even though they'll go on and on and on
>Skip most of the dialogue

>Game is text only
>Most of the NPCs are just background dressing with a few concise and efficient lines of dialogue
>Read everything
