On the Patch 12.1.5 PTR, one campaign quest has you listen to a conversation between some NPCs. Once you start the event by talking to the NPC, the quest objective completes, but you cannot turn in the quest, as the NPC is part of the current conversation. During this time, a new UI element appears on the right side of your screen, which allows you to skip the conversation and turn in the quest.
Previous quests with conversation allowed players to skip it in different ways. This includes allowing players to fly away, making the conversation opt-in by talking to an NPC afterwards, or having a separate dialog option that completes the objective but skips the conversation entirely. These methods could be less natural and have players accidentally skip important lore moments if they didn't know the options existed. Having the Stay a While and Listen conversation be opt-out, which easily notifies all players that there is an event there, while still providing the ability to skip.
