Any way to view all the loading screen tips?

The tips on the loading screen provide useful information. Some of the advice is there painfully obvious. But other tips are not always so easy to pick up just from playing.

I find that the loading screen does not stay up long enough for me to read most of these tips, not to mention I don't necessarily want to wade through captain obvious reminders of drinking potions to find juicy bits of info. Is there any way to access these tips either in game or out, other than the loading screen?
The tips on the loading screen are probably stored in a 'tips.txt' (obviously), but I can't find it. Maybe ask one of the devs?

No. The tips file is currently stored within the 'content.ggpk' file along with all the other game assets. I don't think there are all that many tips, though, so I don't think you're missing out on anything. You can certainly find all the information you could need on the forums.

The tips should be added to the chat after loading.
I can't recall which game did that, was quite smart thing.
Since, many game came out having this same issue. Mostly console ports =P

Bumping an old thread instead of creating a new one.

I too find it hard to read the tips displayed between zones on the loading screen, the screen is usually displayed for less than a second.

Can we either get a list of all the tips, or have the tip included in the chat dialog area post-loading screen?
