Does anyone find looped NPC conservations annoyingly similar to GW2?

I mean it's pretty much like standing in the trading post in lions arch all over, when I'm alt-tabbed out it almost feel as I'm still playing GW2.

Anyone else get that feeling?

    It would not be so bad if they were not on a 15 second timer. Once every 5 mins or so would be fine.

    Not sure what 'still playing GW2' has to do with this, beyond a jibe against ESO for copying said game.

    "believe what you like"
    "believe what you like"
    "believe what you like"
    "believe what you like"
    "believe what you like"
    "believe what you like"
    "believe what you like"
    "believe what you like"

    Yeah, that one is starting to get on my nerves, so I turn the sound off in there.

    But I do appreciate that they voices in some of the areas that do the repetative dialogue rotate to different voice actors on ocassion.
    The problem with society these days is that no one drinks from the skulls of their enemies anymore.

    Is it just me, or have they been adding dialogue choices to try and alleviate that issue?

    I haven't heard the same dialogue on loop in a while. There are certainly pre-set options, but I'm pretty sure I hear more NPCs cycling through those options than just saying the exact same thing over and over again. At least they're doing that as I complete more noteworthy tasks in the world and news of my heroic deeds and good looks spreads across the land.

    haha, I hate those two npc's like I hate being kicked in the groin. I wish NPC's would only say a line once, and then just spew random generic race-specific lines after that, or even better, make them sound like charlie browns teacher unless you are within 5 feet of them (or completely silent).

    I think the GW2 NPC dialog can be funny sometimes but can get annoying also. I suppose if we are comparing the two, I think GW2 did a better job.

    I use Rawl'kha for crafting and the bank because everything is nice and close. Every minute you hear this long speech about how this guy is sentenced to the stocks blah blah it's enough to make me want to lose my mind. If you have to have them repeat the same speech word for word over and over can we at least put it on a longer timer or allow us to mute it?

    Agreed. I've left that area of Daggerfall several times just to get away from that annoying conversation. Why it's on a 15 second timer is beyond me.

    I play both games, and I would say I am in no danger of confusing one for the other.

    I enjoy both for what they are, and see no reason both shouldn't thrive-as well as many other mmos. Some of which I also play and enjoy.
