"You want to cry me a river? Go ahead. Maybe you can float out of Craglorn."

Lost count of how many times I've tried to kill that guy!

No, listen, my family is well-respected in Stormhaven. I can get you lots of valuables. I just need to get out of Craglorn! :'(

Well, since JUNE 2017 when this thread was last active before the thread necromancers got a hold of it, I'm sad to report that the inane NPC chatter has not stopped.

Perhaps we should let this thread RIP from the unending repetition of NPC lines?



Too late, we summoned Mannimarco.

Yeah, yeah, I heard you the last 1000 times you've threatened me with that. Moving on...

This is why I enjoy the forums. Take a complaint thread and makes it funny.

Well done, sera!

I’ve killed the “hey fancy pants! Fall on any swords lately?” guy so many times now and it still makes my blood boil. Go to Cyrodiil or kill Molag ball yourself!

Edit: removed my own cursing because the filter did not and i dont want no more trouble

To be honest i like it, imo there is nothing more boring than qiet NPC´s. If ZOS could change the dialog of NPC from time to time, that would be awesome.

I hate the guy banker in vulkel guard. I use the girl one that further from the door. His dialog makes me want to slap him. I like the altmer, i think she is, in the room next to the BE turn in in gold coast. She is standing by the mound of books reading them. Her dialog is entertaining and then she throws the book.

I couldn't stand it anymore, I finally turned off dialogue.

Unfortunately, this also turned off some of the special effect sounds (my combat is now silent) but you do get used to it.

Just be sure to turn on 'subtitles' so that you can read what the NPCs are saying, otherwise you won't have a clue what's going on.

And finally, knocking over the cart of Atrius the Merchant while attempting to avoid capture. For all of these crimes, this one sentences him to the STOCKS, until such time as he shows prrroper rrrepentance."

I love it when Khajiit roll their 'R's.

I sometimes find myself reciting this in my head at work.

i really wish you could stab the npc's that never shut up ---- and double stab any that are singing that horrid red diamonds song

"Hey there fancy man fall on any swords lately" everytime I go to Ebonheart I hear this line its annoying what gets me is I think this is some gay innuendo to. just the way he says the line and refers to "Fancy" man and "swords" anyways probably not

Hopefully with the arrival of Summerset the 2 ladies loitering on the pier in Vivec will finally bugger off!

DaveMoeDee

This is why they added the Blade of Woe.

red_emu

You think that's annoying? Have you played assassin's creed origins? All NPCs just repeat the same 3 or 4 phrases with different voices! You can travel across all of Egypt and every NPC will tell you "high position gerreh"

I'll take "do you know how long I've been looking for you??" Any day

Saying that. How long has she been looking for me? She found me a billion times already!

cyclonus11

It should play once per zone-in and that's it. Having it on a repeat timer is the reason I won't hang out in Rawl'Kha anymore, despite the fact that all of the city resources are close together.

"For all of these crimes..."

That's Gabrielle. She's a Breton. She's looking for something important.

I actually don't mind the Vulkhel Guard banker guy, even though he's repetitive as all get-out. I just go "FIVEFOLD VENERATIONS TO YOU MY FRIEND" and go about my business.

VerboseQuips

I don't mind it, but I would like them to also chatter about more recent (DLC/Chapter) feats.

Also, it'd be nice to hear chatter about achievements. Things like "I've eard you're a skilled tailor" or "you're famous among fishermen, you know"...

Someone a while back posted a pic of a bug that placed the prophet inside their home - the island.

Soon Stuga will be running up to us in our guild halls.

Look at the muscles on you...

"This one hears the strangeness in Southpoint has ended. Seems a Daedric Prince was involved … Sheogorath himself!"

"You believe all you hear. A Daedric Prince? Did your sister see a clutch of butterflies when she was there?"

"Believe what you like! I'm glad things have calmed down there, whatever the cause."

I think that's Mournhold. The Riften dude is "Hold! I was sent for you!"

It's a sad commentary on my life that I know this.

I saw a mudcrab the other day, horrible little creatures

Stop talking

Everytime you visit Auridon... "Have you any idea how long I've been looking for you?"

For F's sake YES I DO, now STOP stalking me

red_emu

This one is for PvP'ers:

"Stop! You can't cross! Molag Bal...."

Never actually heard the rest of the sentence, as I'm only passing by on my unnaturally fast horse. Why would he think I wanna cross? I didn't even slow down! Besides I can clearly see the bridge is broken. Seen it on the map too, do enough with this patronising tone Mr imperial.
