pnhearer Posted August 19, 2014 Posted August 19, 2014 I don't know about the rest of you, but when I read it. I hear the original voice from baldur's gate saying it. Its actually kind of annoying NOT hearing it. Thoughts? 11
Bli1942 Posted August 19, 2014 Posted August 19, 2014 They should just let you venture forth without gathering your party, surely they can teleport everyone out the door regardless of if they're standing there
TheisEjsing Posted August 19, 2014 Posted August 19, 2014 Honestly it's just nice that the game pays homage to that iconic line. 3
cdx Posted August 19, 2014 Posted August 19, 2014 In BG2 I've heard it enough for PoE 1,2 and 3. I'm happy for not hearing it. 2
pnhearer Posted August 20, 2014 Author Posted August 20, 2014 Guess its just me then. I can't help but not hear if when I read it. Guess that'll just have to be enough

No to changes for the sake of change! Do not forget basis of Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale and Planescape Torment. Just put all your effort to story, fine-tuning and quality control.
Corivar Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 They should just let you venture forth without gathering your party, surely they can teleport everyone out the door regardless of if they're standing there Exactly, PST did this and it was wonderful. Its probably a bug, but having to micromanage all my characters to stand on top of each other so I can rest is also frustrating. 1
Tibs Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Would that my BB guys didn't get stuck with no apparent way to unstick them. Save often! Science Fiction, available on Amazon.
Mayama Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Honestly it's just nice that the game pays homage to that iconic line. Haha I get flash backs but it was one of the most frustraiting things of BG ^^
Ztirual Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Well, stuck or unstuck, just remember to gather your party before venturing forth...
Tartantyco Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 I never could understand why people find it so annoying. You must be playing it "wrong" or something to set off the "You must gather your party" clip. I always walk my guys to the edge of the map, then click on the area transition, so I almost never hear it. I think I've heard it three times during my current BG1 playthrough. Are you guys just clicking on the area transition from halfway across the map or something? "You're a fool if you believe I would trust your benevolence. Step aside and you and your lackeys will be unhurt."

ManifestedISO Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Yeah that guy's voice is unforgettable. Like a disembodied observer with deep concern and authority for my party's welfare. 2 All Stop. On Screen.

Cabamacadaf Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 The Icewind Dale games are the IE games I'm the most familiar with and that line is never said out loud in those games. To be honest, I thought it was really strange to hear it spoken when I first played Baldur's Gate.
pnhearer Posted August 29, 2014 Author Posted August 29, 2014 If this actually did manage to get in there I'd be so happy, but ohhh the hate mail I'd get haha.
Falendor Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 actually the first time I triggered the text I thought the lack of audio was a bug. would love to have the old audio or a new version of it in PoE.

Falendor Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 OH I know! when you try to leave a area without all your party each character that is not close enough gets a VO customer to that character. "hey don't leave me!" "Slow down long legs" (dwarf character) Etc. Etc. 1
