I'm exaggerating considerably; conversation only happens at prepared locations (otherwise, the program wouldn't have a script to follow) and mostly only during plot points. Conversation in the middle of combat is pretty rare, and is usually a simple matter of discussion of the interface very early on, a tutorial, essentially. Occasionally there is some conversation that has no impact on the plot, but mostly conversation is wherever they feel like it because the games in the FF series are long games - VII was a three CD set while VIII was a four CD set, as was IX. There is a lot of plot to go through, and it is scattered around the game globe.

Also, there is much more conversation in DBZ than there is in the FF series, and it helps that you are controlling the characters (for the most part) in the FF series, rather than just watching stuff happen on a TV screen.
