But the solution of offloading the responsibility of crafting the line onto the player actually creates a bigger problem, which is that the game no longer has any way to react to the specific tone or language employed. With actual written lines, the responses are able to take those lines into account to create a more natural flow of conversation.
True, I hadn't thought of that, even some of the better RPGs rarely have meaningful reactions to your tone or specific wording. For those cases, we still have actual written lines, which, so far, seem to be reserved mainly for origin responses. I can only hope there'll be more of them and Larian will use those lines wisely.
