Is There a Way to Skip The Intro?
Spent first 15 minutes doing noting but pressing SPACE to get passed the cutscences before I finally got sick of it and quit playing.

Is there a way to just skip all that and get right to playing?

Stop playing. You won´t be able to play this game if you can´t deal with the damn story. Just refund it and go away.

Really - If you have trouble with the intro, I guess the rest of the game will drive you mad. This is not an FPS, but an story driven RPG. The story is very important in this kind of games, and you will get a lot of cutscenes. If you are not "into" that kind of stuff, the game is really not for you.

If you want a game that has not too much story, but a lot of fighting, you are better off searcing under FPS games (there are even some combat driven RPG's). An story based RPG will never satisfy you that much..

Thanks for the 1 helpful (jclosed) reply - as for the other 3 fanbois trolls...

If I had known the game was "story driven" and relied more on story/cutscences than actual gameplay I would not have purhcased it in the first place and wouldn't have posted here.

And you 3 trolls will be happy - I did request a refund and will go away to leave you to your epeen basement bedrooms.

Rezzin a dead thread here.
Wow, gotta love the wealth of empathy and kindness among those with the "Git gud" gamer mindset. Guess the pathetic really need to find puerile ways to feel superior. "I am better story gamer than you!" Real mature, guys.

In short, the intro is always there, even when you reload a save or travel to a different map. It's nagging but it's something lazy game devs put in to make the simple minded feel like they're immersed in a story, when it literally just acts as a refresher to those with memory related brain deficiencies.
There are mods that remove it, as it really does nothing for the story, it's just Future Ted narrating back to you things you already know because you've obviously already played the relevant content that would prompt the tidbit of intro.
Give Nexus a check if you haven't in the few years since this post.
The necro is pointless anyway, however...

Is this about the intro when you load into the game? That's just a loading screen dude.

If you have to force people to watch a movie to tell your story, you're a ♥♥♥♥ game designer. Good game design means telling the story through gameplay, not making people watch movies. That's what movies are for. There is no legitimate excuse for forcing somebody to watch a movie every time they try to play your game. That's not a game. That's an interactive movie.

Imagine being THIS guy, geez.
This game clearly isn't for your type.

You had to dig up a years old thread that was already years old the last time it was necro'd? If people haven't figured out this game is half rpg lite and half cutscenes by now dunno what to say.

But all cutscenes are skippable now, so what are you talking about? Ok you need skip one cutscene several times , each dialog separately but anyway it can be done in a few seconds.
Bud I was stuck watching a dripping wet dudes feet for like 5 mins straight.

Then I beat the 1st chapter, and he was *back* in the tub, getting rubbed down, with real close up shots.

Then it's off to pick out what frouffy lace collar to wear for the king's court.

This isn't the game for me. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

my brother in Christ, because of that you shouldn't even play this game. Better find something else to play.

Yes there's a mod called 'Uninstall the game and go back to playing League of Legends', it skips everything.
