A. I think Zombra has a good point about not being OCD about every fucking thing. See Witcher quests and sidequests and how they can be locke dout according to your decisions.
B. I think Zombra is missing the huge point here. IF you improved the lore dumps in the side quests you speak of being as optional, wouldn't that make it a better game? Doesn't that make the criticism of the writing valid?
C. Let's say you are RPing a char who likes to talk to diff ppl...how would you know these dialogues are crap until you experience it? The point that ppl are trying to make is that the writing is subpar. You seem to make the point that meta gaming is a stupid/subpar way of playing a game. But think about your first play-though of a game. You have no idea these dialogues will suck and will be overly flowery.
Zombra , you do make some good points on how people play and experience RPGs. However, i think the fact that the dialogue isn't as good in HK is just that. It isn't as good. Period. Trying to hand wave that fact away is just unfair IMO.
