    @junk11 I know what you mean... despite all my hate and sarcastic replies to "You must gather your party...", I know I'll just love hearing it again after all this time, and would be very unhappy if it isn't present in the future games, heh.

    The kobolds sounded a lot like my family's dog back in the 90s. I used to make kobold yipping noises at her when she came in the room.

    I think my favorite sound bit is the commoner phrase "The wives been getting prickly on me eyes"

    This used to make me so mad. Just let my party catch up narrator, I know I can't leave without them!

    Go for the eyes, Boo, GO FOR THE EYES!!

    We still use that phrase at roleplaying sessions, for every character with a familiar. :-D

    "Me youngens are waiting" said buy a lot of tavern wenches

    Not from BG1 but BG2

    From IWD
    "HEYA! it's me, Hrothgar!"
    At least that's what I imagine, he has inescapable dialogue the likes of which, Imoen could only dream of.

    "Vita, mortis, xxxxxx"

    Anyone know what that third word is, by the way? That always bothered me...
    It's "vita....mortis.....carnae", which is completely recognizable as latin. It means "life...death...flesh" - pretty appropriate for a cure light.

    As for the poll, I can't pick just one. There's too much of it, and they're all permanently tatooed into my mind. BG1 and BG2 have the best voice-acting I've ever heard in any game, including all the ones with hundreds of lines more dialogue. BG1's voice actors can make you know a fictional character as though he or she were your best friend in about three lines worth of dialogue.

    The ambient noises.

    "My golf club!"

    "WALNUT! HOT WALNUT!"

    "WHERE THE BOATS ARE!!"

    *fart* "Whoa! Now that was a stinker!"

    BGII just didn't have the same low-brow humor as BGI.

    YES HOT WALNUT. I thought NO ONE ever noticed that. It's so hilarious and I've found no mention of it anywhere else. Me and my friends love it.

    What was stuck in my head until about 2 years ago, was the miners.

    "Get - me - out of this HELL hole."

    "We are in an ambush. Prepare yourself!"

    "You're perceptive for an old man. You know why I'm here. Hand over your ward and no-one will be hurt. If you resist it will be a waste of your life."

    "You're a fool if you think I'd trust your benevolence! Stand aside, and you and your lackeys will remain unhurt!"

    "I'm sorry that you feel that way old man."

    Straight off my memory, it's been burnt into my soul ;) How did I go, did I get it wrong?

    The one stuck in my head for a long time:

    "DEATH TO THE DISBELIEVERS!!!"

    This is more of a favorite line, but certainly a memorable as a sound for me:

    "Hush little baby, don't say a word, Nimbul's gonna bring you the... big... black... BIRD."
  • colonel_burgercolonel_burger Member Posts: 279
    @lemernis great memory!

    IIRC Nimbul screams like a little girl when you paste him, but he sure was menacing when fighting him the first time.
