Maybe because there was more dialogue (or at least feel like), I was done relatively quick. Took less than half time previous chapter.

Loved when the ずーん moment.

The tips were a bit useful this time, story related wise, specially Tip 4.
It’s also probably the hardest part of this chapter, as it’s a newspaper excerpt.
Thankfully is not too long.

The delivery is definitely better voiced.

Just finished up, definitely feel like things are moving along a bit faster for me now while reading as well, though I’ve been mining pretty frequently so the actual time to read has been varying quite a bit. I’ll have to tackle tips 3 and 4 sometime this week if I can find the time.

As for the last scene of the chapter, the way she said she didn’t know was so well delivered. The voice acting is really selling it for me, glad I chose the PS3 sprites + voices.
