Text Boxes and Vee chatter

one of the presentation things I'm not sold on is the text boxes that pop up every time you bail on a mission. If you crash, the "you SLAMMED!" box completely hides the charm of the falling animations, which are glorious and part of what makes Skate fun. If you accidentally kick off of your board, and reset to the session marker, you have the "get back on your board" box blocking your view for a second before you can continue the challenge. I get offering a tooltip to keep unfamiliar players from becoming confused with the rules of a challenge, but I don't need or want to see these. They're immersion-breaking. I want to watch my character ragdoll down the stairs, reset to the session marker, and immediately continue attempting the challenge. 

In the same vein, I wish Vee would pipe down sometimes. She doesn't have enough dialogue for how chatty she is. I've put like 5 hours into the game and I'm already sick of her. She has charm, don't get me wrong, but seriously, I don't need her to generically comment every time I push the board or pass a bench. I think if she talked less, I'd be much more interested whenever she does pipe up with something to say. I don't mind her existence; I just think her current state is a bit pervasive.
