    A small suggestion. If you repeat the same question twice, the NPC will still dutifully answer for you, as expected, but will prefix his answer with "You just asked about that."

    I like the intent but this may or may be tricky to implement. If it's based on a complete quote it might work fairly well.. but if it's based more on key words then you could end up using the same words in two separate contexts or turn to someone next to you to say something while the NPC is still listening.

    I do hope that the conversation AI will see further development with each EP. That would be pretty sweet.

    Please do the opposite. Instead recognize that someone is struggling with the conversation system and make another attempt at giving them what they might be looking for.
