In a general sense, appraisal means complimenting or rewarding someone for the good they have done. The same applies in Elden Ring too; The thing about choosing the button prompt indicating ‘Good’ is the appraisal.

If you rate it “good,” the message creator will receive a free Flask of Crimson Tears health. The Flask of Crimson Tears, as you know, is a consumable; Flask of Crimson Tears grants various effects such as restorative properties like restoring HP, removing certain negative status effects, or even applying temporary buffs and debuffs.
