Quick Mode should be turned off by default

Just saying makes it mcuh easier to learn

Learn what? The game is pretty straight forward as far as basic mechanics of fights go and the tutorial does well enough job of teaching you. Not to mention itd be a pain in the ass to have to re-enable quickmode for every fight after you learn...

I mean, while the tutorial does teach you a lot of things, it still takes players a while to get used to everything, and I think having Quick Mode be off would help with that. And they could just make your Quick Mode preference a part of the save file so you don't have to change it every time if you prefer it on. It shouldn't be THAT hard to program this, right?

Absolutely agree, after seeing this comment I turned off Quick Mode and combat makes a buttload more sense to me now. I wasn't having trouble fighting before, but I assume that that's because the battles at the start are easy, and the game will get a lot more intricate.

Also since Quick Play is tied to the Q key I assume it's a toggleable flag? So when the game is first run have QuickPlay=False and when someone hits Q make it QuickPlay=True and you're done, no need to re-enable it every fight?

aye, i watched liek two -3 pages unfold and got a hang of it; just bny the text i did not straight away understand that each segment of a card fights the opposite card; and with quick mode it goes to fast to even see whats going on

personaly i know how the game works now, i don´t mind it; it was just some feedback cause it would be a shame if people refunded because of somethign like that

[Krag]

Yeah, Quick Mode helps a ton early on and the game tells you can enable it, there should just be more info about what it does exactly and how interesting it is for the new player.
Another thing that helps and this I played with for the entire game are the attack lines that you can enable with 1-2-3.

Also agree. Was easier to see how evades worked and numbers + buffs worked with it disabled. I don't need to disable quick mode any more, but having it on for just a few fights was enough for me to fully understand the combat mechanics.

Also think that the 1-2-3 attack lines should just be on by default.

Strange. I thought quick mode used to be disabled by default. It's been so long after Early Access, I might've forgotten.

[JonathanFly]

I totally agree. I didn't understand why things were happening until I disabled Quick mode. It should be off by default.

[Starakira]

Funnily enough, I watched older Let's Plays of this game and Quick Play was definitely turned off by default. I guess they changed it because of the feedback saying there's no reason to have it off unless you want to take screenshots or something.

Right from the beginning i played with quick mode. I wouldn't say its makes things harder, no. Only after ~250 hours i decided to try and disable quick mode, and this is the worst decision ever. The game got like 10x slower, fights started being boring (because everything is so damn slow) and rolling all the dice yourself? Why, whats the point..?

I mean, i get it, there may be a lot of people who play like that, but i really don't understand why would they, imo it makes the game look way worse.

[Hearts™]

I kind of agree

[AritheReaper]

Agreed. Quick mode off by default would be nice.

Well, of course you should turn on Quick Mode after playing the game for a few hours. I think the game should suggest turning Quick Mode on, if the player left it off, and a few hours has gone by.

But in my very first hour playing the game I did not understand the initiative system. And then I turned Quick Mode off, played for about an hour, then turned it back on.

its in the second sentence; it helps people understand the game

after roughly 2-3 missions people can then decide to turn it off if they got the drill

The tutorial is trash.
Random YT'rs with less than 100 subs explain it far better.
