question about westerune, does kris just have implied speech like in canon or can the player actually read/hear their dialogue?

Many old point-n-clicks adventure games are well known and loved for their dialog, so we would love to let Kris talk in this AU and characterize them more.

The SOUL wouldn't have a direct control over Kris, so they could speak their mind whenever they please. And we can read/hear it "in game".

But Kris is still not that talkative. (Like their OG counter part.) They would be short and to the point in their speech, and moreso show their feeling towards friends and others through action.

Their voice would be mumbly and a bit hoarse (from talking more than usual).

with westerune I think there something really interesting you can do with like, how Utdr encourage the player to treat beings that Aren’t Real with kindness, how it humanizes and adds interiority to character types in rpgs (like monsters), how darkners tie their worth to how useful objects they are and how in the current worldstate darkners are quite literally objectified , and used then discarded, how items are used in adventure games and the occasional instance of an item being a sentient being (like murray the talking skull from the monkey island series), and how adventure games sometimes require you to be an asshole or cause a lot of mayhem to progress.
