No there isn't.  That setting only controls the length of time you have to do time based actions.

That's what I said

 

Maybe the game is telling you that you're too dumb

No, you said hints.

 

So maybe you should take one now and shut the fuck up

No lol. You literally arrive at a “puzzle” and the accompanying NPC immediately yells out the solution -  “maybe you can do x with y.” The game would be significantly better if there was an option to eliminate it. It’s not even like the puzzles are hard.

While the dialogue is a problem I think the puzzles themselves are so straightforward that it would probably take me 30 seconds at most to figure out the solution for 90% of them, even with no dialogue.

Exactly. You look around and it’s all common sense. Btw, any more puzzle box games you can recommend? I’m considering re-playing Talos Principle.

Can't think of any at the moment, I haven't played that many puzzle games lately.

It would be too hard to return to that game at the moment  on the plus side I just got back into Sparks of Hope

Yeah, that mission with Thor was pretty funny. They just have so much more personality than the whining of Tyr and Freya.

Freya I get, though, due to the events of GOW 1 and everything with Odin. I actually enjoyed her favor quest.  Tyr is meh.

I get where Tyr's coming from, too, but I still find everything about them annoying with how pervasive their whining and how shitty their dialogue is.

Well, their arcs get pretty cool later on.

Do I have the ability to get every side objective once I have the spear?

You know, I was checking The Video Game Awards nominees out again, and like what the fuck... how the hell do Christopher Judge and Sunny Suljic get nominated for their performances in God of War Ragnarok over Richard Schiff for Odin or Danielle Bisutti for Freya??   That's so ass backwards

For real  that’s why I don’t even bother lol

Starting to really dig the game. Don't know why they kept so much of the combat stuff locked behind a pretty dreadful first dozen hours.
