I've just finished reading about Battlespire. It's interesting how you can interact with monsters like npcs. It's very interesting how you can negotiate with them depending on different variables such as the creature's intelligence. Is this something you would like to see in future titles or is it a feature that has worn out over time?

I really would like more situations that could be resolved with use of Speechcraft skill.
In NWN I avoided ~1/4th of fights because of high persuasion skill
So it would be great if in TES5 Speechcraft could play more important role.
