'''Dialogue''' pages on the Baldur's Gate 3 wiki can be roughly categorized into three categories: Banter, Remarks, and Transcripts.  
'''Dialogue''' in Baldur's Gate 3 occurs both when travelling overhead, 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. Baldur's Gate 3 is a game with a lot of reactivity to player choice. A players choice in [[Class]] and [[Race]] frequently open up new conversation options. The game may also give you new dialogue options based on discoveries made in game.
* ''Banter'' describes overhead conversations between two or more characters that happens outside of cutscenes.  
 
Occasionally an conversation option includes a [[Skill Check]]. Typically this will be using the [[Skill]]s 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.
 
A player can view their recent [[Dialogue History]] in the [[Journal]]. Here they will find a transcript of recent conversations.
