Speed? 2x 4x etc

[Tunuh]

I'm just getting back into this game because I thought I remembered the devs mentioning they were looking into adding a speed up option. Was it ever added? I'm playing and can't find anything, searching the forums doesn't say anything official, and there's no official patch mentioning it. What gives?

I’m sorry to report that this feature was never able to be added, though we would have liked to.

[Tunuh]

Gotcha.

I'm assuming the game doesn't use VAC so my account won't be hurt if I use cheat engine to speed the fights up?

I’ve heard a number of people on these forums say they used Cheat engine with no problem at all to speed through slower parts of the game. We did not implement VAC; you should be fine.

Was just about to buy the game but decided to take a quick glance at the forums and saw this. Is this for real? No way to skip animations or speed them up?

This has to be a joke right? It's the one thing making older JRPG's a slog to get through and I can't believe it's still a thing with some games.

Thanks OP for saving me some cash

Same for me, thx for saving me some money

If I knew it was a jrpg style combat without faster combat or at least animation skip, i would never have bought it.

But I did and i am enjoying it so far. I am at 12 hours or so, and i don't think i can go past around 25 hours if i haven't beaten it by then, since already the slow combat (especially trash mobs like bats, etc, massive waste of time with zero challenge) is getting very repetitive.

The game is solid quality, i can't believe something so important has been overlooked.

on ps4 i cant even crutch on cheat engine. i would settle for a no animation option. they take too long and make every single combat a slog.

Ugh. Bought the game prior to launch and was so put off by the super slow combat/animations that I hadn't touched it since in the hopes it would get fixed. Just checked back now and saw the above post. Sucks.

[DrakenKin]

It is pretty clear that it won't ever be fixed.

It's funny how a simple detail like this can almost ruin a great game totally. It's like owning a ferrari with square tires.

Skip a great game for something as minor as a lack of animation skip...such a shame. But hey, your loss.

[HighLanderPony]

Your loss, bois n' gals. The slower pace just lets you listen to the amazing OST for longer. ;D
