Another good one is "Come to torture me again you Shapeshifting BASTARDS" or whatever, ahahah.
Indeed, and you can answer "Ha ha ha, we've come to torture you" sort of out of the blue since you're supposed to be there to investigate, always makes me laugh.
God the above "person" and minsc have some scary conversations trough the game.. every time I have read/heard one of them.. I feel my braincells dying left right and center.. but man its funny.
@sarevok57 every gear from every enemy? even the gold they carry? you remember that much information? amazing memory. the first cutscene for BG-2 is what I remember the most; I'm even voice acting it right now.:))
@Freche on that quote, it always sounds off to me, the silence dog part is fine, but the 'your only purpose here is to die by my hand' sounds....i odn't know, weird. like he's barking it or just in a hurry and stumbling over himself. i can never pin it down though, sadly.
I know it has been done probably more than a few times here...but it is epic enough to repeat I think (and if you don't like it tough).
"I grow tired of shouting battle cries when fighting this mage. Boo shall finish his eyeballs once and for all, so that he does not rise again! Evil, meet my sword! SWORD, MEET EVIL!!"
you gotta love minsc. But, do they ever say if boo is really a minature giant space hamster? i wish you could give minsc a little spaceship.
The moment i fell in love with the game was when i was playing part 1, and ran across some goblins in naskel mines, and boo shouted out for the first time, "Go for the Eyes, Boo, GO FOR THE EYES!!!! RAAAARRRWWWW!!!!
that moment never really leaves a person no matter how much it's over done
"Sigh. It's aggravation like this that will eventually cause me to fireball the entire party as they sleep. Yes indeed, everyone peaceful and quiet and then FOOM!"
"Minsc, that... tattoo on your face. Does it have tribal significance or did some nursery's fingerpainting class assault you with the blue pastels?"
"They could write a book about you. 'Irritable Dwarven Responses', they'd call it. It would be a best-seller amongst the smelly-old-drunk market. What say you?"
"One has lots of time for reflection while waiting for the ENDLESS WAVES OF BAD DOGGIE WEREWOLF MONSTERS THAT CHEW YOUR TOES WHILE YOU SLEEP!!"
"My job? Taking care of crazies like you. Making sure you don't go and hurt yourselves with your deviant powers. And cookies, I make cookies."
"I bid you a "Farewell" suitably unfettered by civilization."
"Shoo! Them aren't yer chickens! Erlin! Erlin, someone's after the chickens!" "This is between us and the chickens, Ma'am, and I'm going to ask real nicely that you stay out of it."
"Staff? You want Stick of Many Foods?! You not get! You come to steal greatest treasure of Crragtail empire! Better than Throne of Comfy, or Pipe That Smell Not Quite So Much!"
" It's Uncle Lester! He's risen from his grave! He scared everyone away who was at the funeral and now he's come after me! I put up with that cheap bastard all my life! You know what he left me in his will? A sweater! Now, even in death, the damnable fiend still torments me!!"
"My utilization of complex locution is more a reflection of my own superincumbent mental acuity than an aspersion on your circumscribed lexicon." "Maybe your grandiose vocabulary is a pathetic compensation for an insufficiency in the nether regions of your anatomy." Ooh. Burn!
"A better man would have learned to appreciate what he had lost, perhaps learning humility and seek to make amends. He did not prove to be a "better man"." "Wow, what was your first clue, genius?"
"The heavens move because he waves his hand! The waters stir as he twiddles his toes! The winds blow as he passes! And on a whim he can break them all!" "World domination goes well then, does it? Good to hear. Goodbye. Don't write."
@fredamora my memory on gold piece values may have slipped a bit sinced i dont play it so religiously anymore, but im pretty sure i still remember everyone's equipment stuff
I can't believe I can remember this stuff! 12 years ago! I was on the forum when they were showing the demo(video of lady frying a guy with Fire) to people about a game called Baldur's Gate.
hahaha, right on i still have my baldur's gate box from eons ago and there is a scene where some mage is using cone of cold, but yet, it was no where to be found in the game
@StrangeCat I think it went like this: "By Tempus' Shield!"
Anyways... Favorite quote? hmmm... 1. Forsooth, methinks you are no ordinary talking chicken! 2. Sorry, Aldeth, but we're siding with the druids. They have this great Aloe-Vera balm they are giving away samples of, and my armor has been chafing a bit, ya know? 3. No, we're not mercenaries. We just carry weapons and kill things for the joy of the experience.
and my absolute most favorite:
Ok, I've just about had my FILL of riddle asking, quest assigning, insult throwing, pun hurling, hostage taking, iron mongering, smart arsed fools, freaks, and felons that continually test my will, mettle, strength, intelligence, and most of all, patience! If you've got a straight answer ANYWHERE in that bent little head of yours, I want to hear it pretty damn quick or I'm going to take a large blunt object roughly the size of Elminster AND his hat, and stuff it lengthwise into a crevice of your being so seldom seen that even the denizens of the nine hells themselves wouldn't touch it with a twenty-foot rusty halberd! Have I MADE myself CLEAR?!
