Not that simple. Dialogues are tied to long rests. If I don't long rest frequently, I miss out on lots of dialogue.
That's a fair point, but I still think you can find your own balance rather than have one mandated.
If BG3's resting/dialogue system isn't changed, then no you cannot find your own balance unless you're willing to give up companion dialogue and relationship progression for basically nothing. BG3 already practically mandates that you rest with a certain frequency to get this content.
If you had to give up something due to resting frequently---e.g., loss of quest progression, using
limited stores of food and risking not having food to rest later, the tadpole transformation progresses, risk of some companions going on ahead, etc---then players
would be able to find their own balance. But currently there is nothing in-game that mechanically discourages long resting, so there's no tradeoff.
