Diablo – skip dialogues and still get the achievements

achievementsdiablo-3

There is a class of achievements in Diablo 3 that requires you talk to the townsfolk such as this one.

Does it require you to sit there and wait for the dialogue to finish or can you skip them and still get the achievements?

Best Answer

Contrary to the current accepted answer, it appears that you do not need to listen to dialogue for a minimum of 8 seconds. I tested this today and made a quick video of my results, see it here.

In summary, you can quickly skip through all of the dialogue and still get credit toward the achievements.

Edit: I have run more tests, here is a link to a Youtube video where I skip through 18 conversations of varying lengths at full speed and get credit for all of them. It's not exactly a riveting video, but I think that it sufficiently supports my answer. Here is the video (the footage is sped up to make the video shorter).
