Not yet. All the official announcements from Larian are posted
here, so keep your eye out. There’s been a new Panel from Hell announced for 7 July and I guess if there have been any changes to the conversation mechanic we might see them then. You never know!
Thank you for the info!

I really, REALLY hope they heard this idea. It's the one aspect of the game that really keeps me from enjoying multiplayer with my friends.
I am happy with pretty much every other aspect of the game, and I am always happy to support Larian, as their games are fun as heck, but this one thing frustrates me to no end.
