Agree! I want a main character rather than a companion to get conversations that start automatically in either single player or multiplayer.

I would also like SWTOR-style conversations for multiplayer, but that is also likely a lot more work.

I would love both if possible, but just having the main character(s) get conversations that start automatically would be a huge improvement from the current system!
