Please let us skip the Obsidian intro movie ... what's more here's the code to do it, courtesy of Bester.

 

The update method of the CompanyIntroManager needs to be changed to:

private void Update()
  {
    this.m_delay -= Time.deltaTime;
    if ((double) this.m_delay > 0.0 && (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0) || Input.GetMouseButtonDown(1) || (Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Escape) || Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Return)) || Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space)))
    {
      this.IntroMovieManager.StopMovie();
      this.m_delay = 0.0f;
    }
    if (!this.m_started && (double) this.m_delay <= 0.0)
    {
      this.IntroMovieManager.PlayMovieAtPath("Movies/obsidian_intro", false);
      this.m_delay = this.IntroMovieManager.GetMovieDuration() + 1f;
      this.m_started = true;
    }
    else
    {
      if ((double) this.m_delay > 0.0)
        return;
      Debug.Log((object) "LOAD TO MAIN MENU.\n\n");
      Application.LoadLevel("MainMenu");
    }
  }
}

Is this the intro when starting the game or the intro when starting to create a new character?

Starting the game

I am all for intro skippage.

Hello all,

 

Thank you for your postings. I have added this suggestion to our database so that it may be reviewed.

 

Thanks again for your ongoing support! 

Have you tried hitting "esc" after starting the game? I am always skipping the intro. It just takes a few seconds to skip.

That skips the "Pillars of Eternity presented by Obsidian Entertainment" but not the Obsidian logo before you get into the main screen.
