NPC conversations and trading
Follow NPC speech and choices in a dedicated reading panel and access their services clearly.

Planning reference image; subject to change.
Talking to people in the world is part of both discovery and preparation for an expedition. NPC dialogue now has a panel that brings together the character’s name, speech, and available responses, giving each conversation more context.
Long messages are split into pages, with controls that let you read at your own pace. Revealing text, advancing a page, and choosing a response are separate actions: advancing the dialogue does not confirm a choice at the same time.
The panel supports each NPC’s services, including access to buying and selling. This milestone covers conversation presentation and controls; each service retains its own options and consequences. You can understand what was said before deciding how to continue.
