How do you skip text? LT is only offered very rarely?

If "you can't" is the answer than this game is definitely overrated having missing a staple of RPGs over the last decade at the very least.

I'm pretty sure you can do it for any text you've already seen.

Ironically useless since the game doesn't have a NG+

It is meant for second runs. Which you can do a pseudo new game plus by changing the save file. You can also write in the summons, pretty fun to mess with.

Do the skip (space) and fast forward (ctrl) options not work for you? (edit: the ctrl shows in dialogues to fast forward - you can check your settings and go to control to see the button binds if you don't use mouse and keyboard)

Under controls there is no skip (I play on steam deck). All I can do is slowly progress text by pressing A like an RPG that came out 30 years ago and sometimes this game rivals Atelier Riza for the obnoxious amount of dialogue is has.

Edit: I remapped the back grip buttons to Ctrl and Space and neither let me skip dialogue. Just progress it when it finishes.

RPGs by developers who's mind is in the 21st century let you skip dialogue like most other RPGs developed in this millennium by pressing Y (Triangle) and then A (X) or pressing Start and choosing skip.

They literally have it built into the game (LT) but only let you do it if you've already had that conversation. It's a really scummy design decision. Like their writers would kill themselves if players wanted to skip their War and Peace length conversations.
