    Next dialogue to spacebar, and exiting dialogue ?

    Hello! So I have two questions.
    • Is there any option to rebind going to the next line of dialogue from the left mouse button to spacebar?
    • And is there any option, so when I need to suddenly do something IRL, I can just exit cutscene/dialogue, come back to the game and resume/continue where I left off ? or at least be able to watch some of the stuff from the start?

    I'm sure keybinds are a thing in this game, not sure how useful or functional they are as a PS4 player here, hopefully someone can help you through that.

    Pretty much all cutscenes that are locked behind a quest are re-watchable from your inn room at "the unending journey" (a little book on a desk). If you have an FC room or an apartment this is also a purchasable piece of furniture and does the same job, just from a probable more convenient place (although I prefer going to the inn for this so I can try different glamour sets in cutscenes :P)

    It's already bound to Numpad-0 and you can just change it to whatever you want. There's a keybind menu in the main system menu. It will override jump, however, if you bind it to the spacebar since you can't have more than one function bound to the same key.

    This is false. Only a tiny fraction of cutscenes are available through the Unending Journey. Typically, it's just the ones with impressive cinematics that appear there, while the more common type that are mostly dialog with limited actions (like what would be available through emotes) do not.

    If the cutscene occurs at the completion of a quest, you'll be prompted at the end for whether to complete the quest and accept the reward or not. That gives you an opportunity to cancel without completing it, so that you can view the cutscene again. But this isn't available if the cutscene occurs at the beginning or middle of a quest.

    If the quest involved is a sidequest and you haven't completed it, you can cancel the quest and start it over in order to view the cutscenes again, but that doesn't work with MSQ cutscenes, since main scenario quests can't be cancelled.

    So there are a lot of cutscenes that you simply lose if you skip past them, and you can't see them again short of getting another character to that point.

    As for being able to abort an already-started cutscene, there's no handy way. If a Duty Finder queue starts, commencing the duty will generally abort the cutscene so you can start it over again. I imagine this would not work for cutscenes that are triggered immediately after the completion of a quest, though. You can, however, just leave the game running with the dialogue waiting for you to click to advance. You should not be automatically logged out when you are viewing a cutscene.
