What to study
The dialogue system's other state: where the choice frame offers numbered replies, this one offers only CONTINUE, so the same box, portraits and objective card serve both branching decisions and plain story beats without changing layout. The speaker name in red small caps and the parchment-toned box keep the conversation readable against any backdrop. Frame at about 0:55 in the Gameplay Trailer (Steam).
