FAQ:

Will it work for Remastered?

• No, there's no such mod for remastered yet

What is exactly removed?

• All FMV's that you encounter during a run (with some exceptions)
• All sections where no player input is needed
• Long text mashing sections

Is there any bad habits that I will gain after playing this?

• No in most cases. Every movement and options are kept. The mod is made in a way so you could make a smooth transition to the original. Usually it's the first and the last text box of a mashing section that are kept so that you learn when to stop mashing.

How faster my run will be?

• The mod cuts ~45% of the run time compared to original
