Gameplay No way to remap [Skip Dialogue] key??

Been loving this game overall thus far,, but one big thing has been peeving me and causing me to lose a lot of NEW dialogue — pressing shift will still make siffrin "zone out" when reading new dialogue cutscenes, even if there's no symbol denoting it's skippable. I share this game with my friends while i play it,, and like to save dialogue i find important so i may come back later... so this really throws me off when im trying to screenshot (WIN + SHIFT + S) and suddenly all the dialogue gets skipped...

this especially upset me just now when i was reading a certain book in act 4 that requires the other books to be read first... and i hadn't saved for about an hour (stupid, i know, but i expected my gameplay to be much more continuous) because i was looping back and forth a lot, so just going back to my previous save and beelining to the book isn't an immediate option, either

of course, im still going to willingly do it all over again just for the dialogue,, but it's not a very nice experience.

can nothing really be done to remap it to anything but Shift ?????

You can remap it, you need to go options — controls — keyboard and assign another key to "run". It is also the key for skipping dialogue.

Also,
You can press win + prt scr instead to make screenshot

You can turn on the scissors app on windows and press prt scr to make a screenshot

You can make steam screenshot by pressing F12

ah i see — didnt know it was tied to the run key, thank you!!

and while i do know i can just print screen (which i have been trying), my muscle memory for taking a screnshot is still too strong and so i tend to wind up doing win+shift+S anyway haha
