Hmm, now I wonder if that "Skip Read Text" not working in subsequent playthroughs was maybe introduced with the patch, or was it the same in the original version too?
Because if that's the case, it IS a huge oversight and I can see how it could quite detract from the experience in a game designed to be played through multiple times...
Anyone who have played it in Japanese perchance maybe wanna chime in?

Have you tried the other default buttons for Skip (C, Mousewheel Button), or perhaps changing them?
Also, have you tried with the 'Automatically skip already-read text' option?

What do you mean by that? that's the default setting.

The point is: when you play from the start - after you loaded your save - you can skip the already-read text until you reach a "fork". When you leave old routes and enter a new route you will have to read everything unless you change the setting in the config menu. Replay an old route and you will skip everything.

No skip previously read text. You don't want to skip new text on a second play through. So the skip is a broken feature in Baldr Sky. On second clear it skips nothing!
I guess you didn't understand that you have to save when you complete a girl's route, then load your save and play from the start. That's how the game works.

Yep it is what I did.. I loaded the clear data an d skip read text.. it worked until around chapter 5.. then nothing skipped anymore.. yet 90% of the text I already read. That is a broken skip.

The skip read text option is working as intended. Many of the early scenes from different routes often have very similar lines, where the same general stuff takes place with subtle differences. I wish the option skipped all text other than the subtle difference(s), but it only skips text for entire scenes that are the same. Scenes that are the exact same between all routes are few (and they are correctly skipped). The new story choices that pop up represent the protagonist recalling more of the past earlier and earlier, which results in minor or major changes to most scenes.

Yep! the final route will make you understand why.

p.s.: the sex scenes are really... well, unsexy (n)

This game was a big DISSAPOINTMENT! Seriously a broken skip read messages.. It does not work you end up reading everything a second time.. No way could I do this a third time.. I got so tired of reading the entire story again that I quit on second play through halfway through it. What an awful game design to have a broken skip read messages in a VN.
bruh, because of Kou slowly getting his memories back over the course of the routes, there are little dialogue changes that mean alot. even tho it looks similar to the stuff you read in previous routes, its not. The skip button works, and if it happens you dont like reading important plot points, you can turn on skip all text in the menu :)

The old crack gave me a malware/trojan warning, did someone check the new version out already and can confirm that it's safe?

Yes - I uploaded this version myself and played it for over an hour - without issue.
You can scan the new crack if you want - its in the Torrent Info Section.
Also those instructions will work if you still have the old version posted previously.

same issue here, I don't really want to dowload an infected version ^^
This is the new V-scan warning removed version - with a new crack!
I added the crack in the Torrent Info Section - so it is easy to scan for everyone - without downloading the whole game.

Is there a specific reason why the torrent version isn't pre-updated with the new crack?

Wait, was the last posted version trojan'd or just a false positive? I haven't noticed anything and Avira is usually pretty militant about potential viruses.

Most likely it is ok.
We had varying reports - so this game was temporary removed from the site.
It has now been re-uploaded with new game files and crack.

You can follow the instructions in the Torrent Info Section to update your version - if you like.
