so you just need to wait and not click anything till the struggle button lights up. seems to be a new mechanic to stop "skip" runs and people who spam click to progress dialouge. i managed to get possesed and released by them using this method
I see, if it is an anti skip or click spam mechanic it's not a good one imo. It makes it look like the game got stuck on a soft lock. There doesn't seem to be any very important plot-specific details on that particular area of the game too.
