The (player) dialogue is deteriorating at a worrying rate.
The PLAYER dialogue is deteriorating at a worrying rate. "the dark heart" quest was unsurpassed in this matter.
I'd give several examples but 1 stood out enough:
Player: "i don't understand."
I really feel that if a subject has been explained over and over this realy shouldn't be the only option to further a quest.
I hope 'writing'/story, but mostly; dialogue isn't concidered subjective by zenimax online, and this feedback is welcome. In that case i'd say:
Just always make it an "option" if you want the players to RE-explain dialogue or act oblivious. Don't make it the only thing to pick and to progress a quest. I feel like there should be a lot less questions in the quests.Tiny spoiler:
Here's another example from the same "The Dark Heart" quest:
These two screenshots actually follow up. So the matter gets explained completely in the first dialogue topic, and the second topic has you already asking the dumb question. No it's not the other way around, haha. (Hell, the lost ability got explained 2 times before that through visions already)
I got the impression we had short memory loss, but now it's at a rate of 20 words it would seem.
And then there's people not recognizing you or you not understanding what the gray host is after 50 topics about it. The writing being very predicatable, especially in greymoor. But that could be more subjective and we have several threads about that. I wish there was more of a place for that kind of feedback though.
