Having the speech boxes move around after each click is pretty frustrating. Like when you select "next" the speech box might move a few inches higher. It makes reading feel a lot less streamed.
- Quest Log should summarise the NPC's story and not just their objectives, I enjoy reading quests as I grind them.
- I'd like it if quest dialogue was more brief and to the point. I remember in my 40's I clicked through about 4 speech bubbles just discussing the blacksmith in Elderine's athlete's foot. Besides the topic being uncomfortable, I feel it could've been done in a page. I feel Fiesta forcing dialogue on my character slightly ruins the story reading experience as well, I don't appreciate my fighter sounding like a twat.
- I'd also like it if the stories were more complex. For example, it'd be great if some of the quest dialogue required you to piece other NPC's stories together to get the full picture. So when you sit down to think about it, you get that great "Ohhhh" moment. Right now I feel there's few things connecting any of the NPC's dialogues, and the NPC stories are always linear and/or predictable, making for a bland read.

I've never read any of the quests, ever. For me its just: Go here, kill this, get stuff. Also you can click anywhere in the bubble to advance to the next one..
