I don't want to see whether a companion approves or disapproves of my dialogue choices. I don't mind figuring it out for myself based on reactions and personalities.

The reason why: it makes me less likely to make organic choices. I look at the dialogue options and find myself wanting to pick the ones that come with approval instead of figuring out what my character really wants to say.

Basically, I'm not a fan of the approval system. If it has to be there, I'd prefer it functioned in the background, under the hood, out of sight.

Even better, remove it altogether. I mean, what's going to make Laezel like me more? Saying the right thing to a random tiefling or fighting beside her in countless combats as we struggle together to find salvation?
