I've been closely studying dialogue and cinematography in video games lately. Try to detach the dialogue system from the dialogue. What's the best? Was it technically multiple systems or just one?

Right. The "wait to remain silent" thing can take some getting used to, especially in the sort of game where you feel like your character would have a lot of questions, but I much prefer it to a default choice being made. I recently replayed one of Telltale's games and I really enjoyed the way I could use silence as a tool. The game was The Wolf Among Us, where you play a detective who interrogates people a lot, and I used the time-honored interrogation technique of just remaining silent to make someone talk more.
