The bit about the dialog seemed to belong to the list of shortcomings, but it wasn't intended to. I moved it to the third paragraph now. You’re right.

I felt it was very refreshing, perhaps because lately I've been playing way too many Tales of Monkey Island and am pretty much sick of listening to all the dialog. So when a game comes along with no speaking at all containing instead cute bubble animations I was smitten by them right away. Stylistically they fit the game very well also.
