The dialogue system in Fallout 4 was garbage. Often boiling your choices down to simple binary answers (with the ubiquitous presence of a "sarcastic" choice that dumbfounded players upon release), the ability to interact with other characters in Bethesda's latest was massively limited when compared to previous releases.

While dialogue wheels can be implemented well, by keeping each interaction limited to four speech choices (with two of these always being a bog-standard "yes" or "no") the sense of expression inherent in previous games was entirely lost.

For Fallout 5 Bethesda needs to bring back the the nuanced and varied responses of the previous games, allowing you to tailor how your character speaks in a way that aids player expression.
