Namutree 1,609 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 "No one crosses the shadow thieves... and liiiives." Surely I'm not alone in loving that line being repeated over and over. Quote "Good thing I don't heal my characters or they'd be really hurt." Is not something I should ever be thinking. I use blue text when I'm being sarcastic. Link to post Share on other sites
Marceror 1,086 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 I never thought I'd say this, but I'm actually missing the "pathfinding" from the IE games! As horrific as it was, it's actually a good deal better than the current pathfinding! Yep, I said it. I went there. Whatchyou gon do bout it!

Death Machine Miyagi 903 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 "No one crosses the shadow thieves... and liiiives." Surely I'm not alone in loving that line being repeated over and over. There are number of lines I'll "miss" from the BG games, because I've heard them so often. "Me will crush you. Crush you to goo!" Or else "Me will smash your face!" "So I kicked him in the head until he was dead. Mwahaha!" "Don't touch me. I'm super important." "Prepare to be eviscerated, fool." "In the name of Looolllth, we fiiighhhtt!" And so on. God, Baldur's Gate was a hammy series. 2 Quote Álrêrst lébe ich mir werde, sît mîn sündic ouge siht daz here lant und ouch die erde, der man sô vil êren giht. ez ist geschehen, des ich ie bat: ích bin komen an die stat, dâ got menischlîchen trat.

Marceror 1,086 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 I'm also partial to "Youurr time is done... primate!" (doppelgangers) Along with: "Evil 'round every corner. Careful not to step in any." (Minsc) And: "The day comes when Tiax will point and click!" (Who else) And: "I don't know what you expected, but as a sword, I'm pretty one dimensional in what I waaaant!" (Lilacor the talking sword) Could probably keep adding all day. 1 Quote "Now to find a home for my other staff."My Project Eternity Interview with Adam Brennecke Link to post Share on other sites

prodigydancer 235 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 "You must gather your party before venturing forth" Hah. Any reference to BG famous voiceover would be grand. Despite not being fully voiced BG had truly epic voice acting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Good question, to it's sort of like going off to college, but being able to bring your high school buddies with you. But I don't think people actually expect any of this stuff to come over verbatim from BG to PoE. Mostly I think people are waxing nostalgic and having a bit of fun. That has been where I've been coming from, at least. Quote "Now to find a home for my other staff."My Project Eternity Interview with Adam Brennecke Link to post Share on other sites

PoE needs a bit more than BG&BG2 offered to be a real success and I'm not talking here about fancier graphics. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
