Thanks for doing this ... it is quite a bit of work and very much appreciated. I was missing one achievement from my original play through and your guide helped me get there to collect it quickly.
SecularSurfer Oct 6, 2020 @ 5:50pm 
I found the answer in the forum. It's just the very first opening dialog. You have to keep spamming the space bar. You can't just hold it in.

The achievement was a little bit buggy for me, it should unlock after skipping some dialogue. You don't need to play through the entire game skipping. (personally for me it unlocked on 2nd chapter)
SecularSurfer Oct 6, 2020 @ 1:45pm 
For "We tried…", do you have to play though the entire game skipping all the dialogue? Or just through the opening?
marklar  [author] Mar 17, 2020 @ 5:50am 
You're welcome! :happy_creep:
