I do not know how u can argue against it, it breaks immersion that u cant listen in live, but play catchup conversation student all game. Absolutely nobody would get hurt with the improved system I suggested, specially if u make it optional to pop up conversations. But if u wanna support lazy developement decisions, just leaving somehting like this because cant be arsed (since most of community is speedrunning efficent multiquesters?) =D.... then by all means, support it.

Also I dont get why this game isnt 8bit, would saved alot of develope time and it also works just fine, and dont really need animations either, just numbers popping with text on bottom descriping whats happening worked fine for long time too, lets just go full stone age since that used to work back in the day anyway for most players in rpg genre. Never mind, lets just make it all letters again while we are at it.

Why ever change something that was once a good system over decade ago. Players were happy back then.

Son, its called developement, we dont have to be stuck in lacking, immersion breaking system.
