Hamlet’s conscience prevents him from acting quickly, causing him to discuss at length with himself the questions, the regicide, and command to take revenge. He is insecure about how to act. He could also be incapable of acting because he is mental unstable due to the overwhelming grief he feels from his father’s death. Hamlets inability to solve his own problems without action, lead him into complex situations and ultimately his death. If he had made swift decisions, he could’ve got retribution.
