Hey guys! I love the story in Last Epoch, but the new chapter 1 really takes me out of it. Every conversation with an NPC involves them saying 1 sentence, then me clicking to get the next one. It makes reading the text boxes a real chore. I would prefer it greatly if the NPCs just said more at once rather than dragging out their dialogue.
Any input from the player character that doesn’t involve a choice really feels like the text is being withheld from me rather than making it feel engaging. If I’m going to read the text, I’d like to be able to just read it. As it is now, I always skip through chapter 1 dialogue as fast as possible because it’s a chore to read. The same problem crops up elsewhere, but chapter 1 is where it’s most egregious.
I understand this is a personal preference thing, so I’d be curious to hear what others think about it and whether or not they prefer it this way.
