Why You Should Use Bionic Reading in Chrome (or Any Browser): An extension to highlight the most important parts of words (www.howtogeek.com)

Bionic Reading is a new way of reading text that uses a patented algorithm to highlight the most important parts of words, making it easier and faster to read. The method was developed by a German software developer named Renato Cukar, who was inspired by the way the human eye reads text.

Bionic Reading works by highlighting the most important parts of words, which helps the eye to follow the text more smoothly and efficiently. This makes it easier to read longer passages of text, and can also help to improve comprehension.

Bionic Reading is available as a free Chrome extension, as well as a mobile app for iOS and Android. It can also be used on websites and in PDFs.

Not quite the same thing, but I like how Zelda BOTW and TOTK do a variation of this by changing the color of important/relevant information in NPC dialogue.. It helps you blow through the dialogue much faster without worrying if you missed something critical.
