	~~This pattern is a still a stub~~.		Conversations in games may be constructed so they are generic and function in many different settings. When they instead are specific for the current context in which they are taking place, they provide [[Contextualized Conversational Responses]].

	=== Examples ===		=== Examples ===
			Although only being weak examples of the pattern, non-player characters in [[Fallout New Vegas]] and [[Skyrim]] have different dialogues when they have moved between places as part of player's progress in quests. While this is really because the players have gotten further in the quests, referencing to the current locations can provide an illusion that the non-player characters say different things depending on the context.

			==== Anti-Examples ====
			Although not much of a conversation, the quotes when selecting individual units in [[Warcraft series\|Warcraft III]] are the same for all units of the same type. The default response when talking to any guard in [[Skyrim]] is "I was an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow in the knee".

	== Using the pattern ==		== Using the pattern ==
	[[~~Algorithmic Agents~~]]		The primary choice when creating [[Contextualized Conversational Responses]] is whether to do it through creating rules in [[Algorithmic Agents]] or providing specific [[Dialogues]]. In the latter case, the pattern can emerge through the use of either [[Character-Specific Dialogues]] or [[Location-Specific Dialogues]].
	[[~~Dialogues~~]]
	[[~~Context Dependent~~ Dialogues]]
	[[~~Location~~-Specific Dialogues]]
	[[~~Character~~-Specific Dialogues]]
	~~[[Thematically Consistent Dialogues]]~~

	=== Diegetic Aspects ===		=== Diegetic Aspects ===
			Since the use of the pattern makes [[Dialogues]] fit not a specific context of a game's diegesis, it naturally follows that it also creates
	~~=== Interface Aspects ===~~		[[Thematically Consistent Dialogues]].

	~~=== Narrative Aspects ===~~

	== Consequences ==		== Consequences ==
			Using [[Contextualized Conversational Responses]] provides [[Context Dependent Dialogues]] and in turn [[Thematically Consistent Dialogues]].
