what's some of the best dialogue systems you've seen and why?
I've been closely studying dialogue and cinematography in video games lately. Try to detach the dialogue system from the dialogue. What's the best? Was it technically multiple systems or just one?

The dialogues are super fluid and dynamic. You can interrupt people and even steer conversations towards other topics with your choices. Conversations are in realtime. Dialogues feel so natural, you really should look it up if game dialogue design is something you find interesting.
The dialogue in Oxenfree is crazy, never seen anything else like that.
The 'Thought-Bubbles' do have a bit of a weird timing. I have to have chosen what to answer before the others are done talking most of the time. It's not always optimal. The voice acting, though, is out of this world.
