Unity & Daydream - Having Dialogs with other Characters

I am building a Daydream app via Unity, have a basic first person demo working but I have not developed on Unity before. Looking to add characters to the app and have dialogs with them. I am considering two ways:
1- When I go near to a character a dialog box would come up next to that character and say "Hello".
2- When I point to a character with the pointer it would say "start conversation"
After either case I would have multiple options to choose from eg. "Where is X" or "what is your name" etc then depending on my selection the character would respond with something else and so on. I couldn't see something that would solve this in standard assets. Are there any best practices, templates around this? If not any ideas / directions?


Unity 2017.3.1f1
GVR SDK: v1.130.1
Android Studio 3.0.1
Java jdk1.8.0_162.jdk
Pixel 2 phone
MacBook High Sierra

 

I was following the RPG tutorials of Game Grind, in which he covers dialog. I took it a step further and copied what he did, but for Daydream. I wrote about my process here:

Hope this helps!
