As the creator of a story game myself, I use a loop. Then inside of that loop, i retrieve the length of the chat string you want using string.len() and iterate the loop the number of times as the string length.

Each loop, I use string.sub() to create a new string that creates a type writter effect for a dialogue.

Here are some useful links that will help you achieve this dialogue effect:

https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/api-reference/lua-docs/string
https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/articles/Loops

Here is an example code:

local Dialogue = "Hello! My name is Revelted!"
local DialogueLength = string.len(Dialogue)

for i = 1,DialogueLength do
local NewDialogue = string.sub(Dialogue,1,i)
--wherever you need the string to go goes here

wait(0.1)
end

EDIT: If you are completely new to coding, I suggest you also read over these articles as well:
