I'm not giving any up, but I have about 5 or 6 right now that are very mature and just did this same thing. It's not so much lazy, it's having better things to do than spending 8-10-12-20 hours to replay each VN, and each route of each VN, that did this at this point. As a mangy pirate, I don't get a say, but I still find it annoying, as I'm guessing supporters do, too.
It's frustration, and it was too much for this guy.
Shouldn't take up more than 10 minutes if you know how to use the skip features.

I used the new build (even though it says the old build would still work) and just turned on "skip unread text" and zoomed through it with ctrl. Stopped at a few points here and there to refresh and it didn't take long at all. If that's too much work for someone...well, it's their loss.

I do, but that doesn't always work with all the VNs. When part of the change is moving to a higher iteration of RenPy, it can screw up the persistent file and prevent skipping effectively, unless you skip all text, in which case you might miss new content. And that's fucking annoying.
Yeah, you can do that, but I was already writing that other part. So this one fucks up the persistent to the point that you have to skip all text? Again, that's fucking annoying.

You can do it even faster by right-clicking the Skip text. Takes you immediately to the next dialogue choice.

Is...is this life-changing advice? On F95 of all places?

Holding Ctrl like he says he did is different. Right-clicking Skip doesn't even show the intermediate renders for a fraction of a second. Just "boom" next choice.

I honestly haven't used Tab. It might do the same thing if each press takes you to the next dialogue choice.

Ideal world, we never have to restart. However, this AVN isn't one I'd ever complain about restarting. The story is great and it's definitely worth re-reading. I'd be more upset if it happened to something like BaDIK because that means I'm back to taking tests, painting fences, flipping pancakes, and everything but reading a story since I would need a save with minigames on in order to keep collecting renders later.
As for right clicking to mass skip, I'm looking forward to trying it out. I can't think of anything else I need to replay at the moment but I'm sure something will come up.

Only downside of the "right-click skip" method is if you don't remember a choice, going Back takes you back to your last choice instead of just a few renders to jog your memory.
Of course, at that point you can just skip normally to the choice you don't remember. Typically I use a mix of both skipping methods when quickly replaying a save.

It's a cool trick though. I didn't know about it.Only downside of the "right-click skip" method is if you don't remember a choice, going Back takes you back to your last choice instead of just a few renders to jog your memory.

I don't even mind starting over - well, I do mind a bit but oh well - but the worst part is starting over without the walkthrough mod. Doing a whole run all over again having to follow a pdf walkthrough is a huge pain in the ass.
