Regarding the new adventure and old npcs

Since it already had been stated, that you won't be able to extend existing banters from classic npcs, does it mean, that they remain mute during the new zones/quests or did I got something wrong?

ps.: I would've loved seeing extended banters from the Baldur's Gate 1 npcs

    Hi geselle,

    it is my understanding that no new dialogue will be written for old characters, such as banters or reactions to their surroundings. However, Trent Oster once mentioned on Twitter that if the new adventures required new voice overs for Minsc, Jim Cummings would be asked to reprise his role. This suggests that old characters will actually react to new situations and have something to say during the new adventures, rather than be completely mute.

    Then again, this is just speculation on my part based on an older tweet.

    What Andrea said.

    Also, as I mentioned just a bit ago on another thread, they will add some text-only to old NPC`s.

    So maybe that includes the new quest/zones/adventures.

    Then again, it`s mostly speculation from old tweets. Again, like Andrea said :P .

    Old NPCs will have new text banter in new quests, at the least. Voice acting new content for the old NPCs is not entirely impossible.
