It's not that slow.

Use the flowchart on GameFAQs once you've seen two or three different endings. Puzzling the paths out by yourself is not impossible, but it will be tedious. Also, report back with your first ending, provided you play that far.

My first was the axe murder. Jarring.

I gotta agree with the slow text speed if Virtue's Last Reward is anything to go by. I'm smashing X to get the next line only to skip complete chunks of the text because I just wanted the next line.  :lol

^Virtue's Last Reward text speed is much, much faster than 999.  No exaggeration.

Imagine if someone made a free to play book where you had to wait minutes before you could turn the page: that's what 999 feels like.  The only game with slower text speed in the past decade or so is Zelda Skyward Sword.

It really easy to guess your way through that one.
