re B2 and Mass Effect: For a first playthru, on a heavy story driven game, why in the world are you trying to skip cutscenes and dialog?

I don't get this. Unless you're replaying a mission or whatever and they are unskippable after the first time. In that case, that warrants a paddlin'.

- I'm still working on the murder mystery, but I finished the ship sabotage quest. -- nm - David Mar 22, 06:54 2
  - I think their might be a bug in my murder mystery quest. -- nm - Strongbad Mar 22, 09:34
  - I completed the sabotage, but skipped the murder - figure I'll get back to it - decline Mar 22, 06:55
- I just landed on Eos -- nm - decline Mar 22, 06:53
They're sloooooooow. - David Mar 22, 06:47 1
- Yep, plus the voice acting isn't so good that I don't just want to read through quickly. -- nm - mafic Mar 22, 07:01
I don't really like long cutscenes, I usually watch for a bit, then get bored with it and skip it. - groiny Mar 22, 06:45 8
- The version I prefer is "Read subtitles faster then they're said, skip to next set of subtitles." -- nm - Ender Mar 22, 07:13 2
  - exactly -- nm - decline Mar 22, 07:22
  - Heh. :-) Yup. -- nm - Krusty Mar 22, 07:14
- I watch most but skip the obviously unimportant NPC filler -- nm - Strongbad Mar 22, 06:49
- Yep. I've never clicked through a cut scene and been TOTALLY lost. If I wanted to watch a movie, I'd watch a movie. -- nm - volnelk Mar 22, 06:48
- Never ever play a Metal Gear Solid game :) -- nm - Shaun Mar 22, 06:46 1
  - This was my thought -- nm - Mop Mar 22, 07:32
- Same. Some games suck me in and I'm all in on the story but I still get bored with it after a while. - Krusty Mar 22, 06:46
I'll skip the occasional NPC dialog at times. -- nm - decline Mar 22, 06:39
