Is it bad that...

[TodaysKiller]

I try to sit down and read all of the different dialogue options, terminal entries, etc, but end up just skipping past it due to wanting to get to the quest/action part of it quicker?

I feel bad because there's a TON of stuff written into games like this, and i'm sure i'm missing out on a lot of information about different quests and such, but I LOVE exploring more than spending 3 hours reading...

I'm a mixed bag of emotions on whether I should just suck it up and read everything I come across.

Gives you something to do on a replay.  I've read a lot more of the flavor text on a reply than I ever did on first run through for the same reason.

Play however you want and have fun. That was a design goal of the the devs after all.

And there are actually unique consequences that can happen if you don't do something. So, really. All's good.

Awesome, just felt bad for all the time they put into the different conversations and dialogue, and I'm just over here skipping through it :D.

But you're right, maybe on the next play through i'll go through and explore and read everything.

Thanks!

I like to read various stuff that enriches the game world. Half action, half conversation/reading sounds just about right to me.
