This is why I have no words when I see people complain about the pacing of a main quest, but specifically mean the dialogue kinda telling you that time is of the essence. Like, dude. I've been gaming so long that unless a timer specifically pops up on the screen, it is assumed that there isn't actually a time limit (there are exceptions. Fallout 1 and 2 both have hidden timers in them where bad things happen if they run out; but at least those gives you months of in game time to beat the clock). Most of the time these dialogues are even literally being snarky because they assume the player isn't new to video games.
