Dialogue - choices?

[sidusar]

I'd honestly like to just have some proper dialog first.

We all do it with the "run dialog if NPC is targeted by player" event, but that's often enough not very convenient. Why can't we have the type of dialog that's used on the mainland, wherein you target the NPC first and then click again (or rightclick and select an option from the list) to trigger their dialog?

It would be possible to engineer this in the Ring if the "Talk To Task Step" allowed the same NPC to be both the quest giver and the quest receiver, but we can't even do that.
