'''Dialogue''' in ''Baldur's Gate 3'' occurs overhead when travelling and when interacting with certain characters. Interacting with most characters will open up a dialogue cutscene, where the player is provided with questions to ask and responses to give. The game has lot of reactivity to player choice. A players choice of [[class]] and [[race]] frequently open up new conversation options. The game may also give you new dialogue options based on discoveries made in game.

Occasionally an conversation option includes a [[ability check]]. Typically this will be using the [[abilities]] of [[Persuasion]] to persuade a character, [[Intimidation]] to intimidate them, or [[Insight]] to ascertain their motives. Sometimes a player will rely on other skills, like [[History]] to recall relevant background information to an ongoing conversation. Some spells can also be cast during dialogue, such as [[Guidance]]. Some spells, like [[Friends]] or [[Detect Thoughts]] might be frowned upon if discovered.
