Am I the only one or do the dialogue attribute checks, besides the fact that they require 15+ to do, actually don't do anything?
Like you can ask a question or make an observation during a dialogue and what you get is a "whatever" kind of answer. They don't answer the question, you don't get any extra information and sometimes you also get insulted.
What is their purpose then? And sometimes, out of 2 yellow choices one of them behaves and has the same function as a blue one.
And an example when you meet Takemura for the first time in a diner after you recover, you can say as a blue option that Hellman is the creator of the bio chip in your brain and Takemura says that information is false, that is was made by another one, greater than Hellman. V has no reaction to this information. But after you exhaust the blue options, you choose a yellow one and in my case V said again that Hellman is the creator but this time Takemura doesn't contradict V and goes along as if that's confirmed information.
And this happened a bunch of times so far.
I didn't pay attention to this back when the game launched but now I did and all I can say is WTF? Blatant contradictions, no extra information even though it's a stat check and a high one (15+), cheap insults that don't answer the original question nor do they feel warranted.
Plus the whole tone that V is speaking in: always hostile, ready to yell, angry....
The dialogue and the VA so far have been....not good. And that's an understatement.
