"This one hears the strangeness in Southpoint has ended..."

Please do something about these NPCs. Elden Root is a great place to craft, but hearing this conversation every five seconds is making me go crazy. It's right up there with the whole Lender-Bee NPC. Ugh. >_<

    Yes, I'd dearly love it if the chatty NPCs could stay far, far away from crafting areas. Or, at least, move and change. By the way, did you hear that a stranger saved King Casamir's life?

    Keep the volume nerf button very close at hand.

    It is mindnumbingly eyestabbingly slashmywrist torture when I zone and have the volume up from being in the outside world (who's audio is wonderful and lovely and calming btw). However, due to the bag space issues, they force you to come to town every couple of hours and then make your time there nailsacrossthechalkboard unpleasant.

    I turn off sound in Elden Root. These NPC's need to have a much longer recycle on their sound loops.

    Yes, far longer, best with an trigger who used is some times then reduced use, I kind of like the bank tellers and merchants one liners, also plausible as lots of clerks uses canned greetings in real life still here it should be an first times the one lighting then an simple greeting like welcome, how can I help or may you walk on warm sand.

    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    Using the crafting stations in Elden Root is a test of patience, young Vestige. But believe what you like.

    Subscription cancelled due to the following facts:

    - Zenimax implements more bugs from patch to patch
    - Zenimax does not care about the increasing instability of the game. People have more and more crashes Fix of memory bug decreased number of crashes considerably
    - Zenimax has still not fully fixed the fps drops they (!) implemented with patch1.2.3
    - Zenimax does nothing to fix the massive ability lags in PvP
    - Zenimax gives more attention to unnecassary 'content' like dyes for armors than fixing issues
    - In patchnotes Zenimax lies about bugs allegedly fixed
    - Zenimax has no plan as to how balance population in Cyrodiil campaigns
    - Support is ineffective and does not even speak in a way one can linguistically understand

    These NPCs should only continue to speak under the condition that they speak their lines to the tune of "Holy Diver" and "Ace of Spades", respectively.

    I used to use the Add On "Borrower and Lender" --- you can guess how it got its name --- but I found that when Summoners and other random world foes would "yell" their comments, the B&L add-on would kill my NPC volume since I'd heard the comment before.... but I was in the process of listening to a quest NPC, and that dialog got cut out, TOO.

    Since they clearly can tell what you have done or not done --- you wouldn't hear that someone saved King Casimir if you had not yet done that --- they should be able to play that sound bite ONCE for you and then NEVER AGAIN. Or, hell, once an HOUR or so, or maybe once every time you zone. But it's just way way too common, now, I agree.
