I dont see what is so bad about the dialogue window? I can see what my friend is saying to the NPC and I can see what the NPC says back to him after. Is it really that hard to press L and go to dialogue?
It's extremely inconvenient and you're immediately pulled out of it when it's time to make a decision.
Also if you happen to start a dialogue with something else after the one your partner did that you want to read every line of dialogue will reset it to close that and look at the other dialogue thing above it.
