 [[Dialogue]] consists of all forms of discourse presented along the game.
-[[Dialogue]] is instrumental in communicating the story ([[Narrative]], and e.g. [[Recordings]]), aspects of the gameplay, what the characters think (e.g. [[Thoughts]]), their state of mind (e.g. [[Unaware NPC]], [[Suspicious NPC]], [[Seeking for PC]]), and their feelings (other messages contributing to the [[Emotional Script]]).

 [[Dialogue]] is usually associated to characters – and it can even constitute an important element of their [[Character Soundprint]] – but it can also come from other sources, as in some cases of [[Narrator]] and [[Helper Voice]].

 [[Dialogue]] can be implemented through actual [[Voice Acting]] (and possibly [[Dubbing]]). Yet, there are noticeable cases in which designers decided ''not'' to have actual voicing and opted to have [[Subtitles and Captions]] instead. [[Subtitles and Captions]] may also be pertinent when considering that not all players may be familiar with the language(s) used, and also the ear impaired.
-[[Dialogue]] may also be used as instrument to enrich and confer more liveness to an [[Acoustic Ecology]], for instance by "allowing" NPC to talk to each other (e.g [[Chitchat]]) or by giving voice to a crowd.

 One aspect that tends to be more noticed in [[Dialogue]] than in other [[Sound Layers]] ([[Foley]], [[Sound Effects]], [[Ambiance]], and [[Music]]) is the need for [[Variety]], most probably  because repetition is perceived as less plausible in this case.
