Thanks for that, guys. :)

If Cernd was allowed to, you know, wear armor and had a lower AC, I'm sure more people would be drawn to the character. In my opinion he should have been made and Avenger or Totemic.

It's a real shame. I kinda like the guy. Hate the fact that he dies often, though. :p

The best would be the Spectator(or whatever, beholder in shaguain city[i don't remember the names]). He has been ordered to scare anyone who tries to open the chest behind him.

Gotta say i laughed all through this thread. Great lines! I've never played with Jan (finished the game about 3 times.. but i guess i'll do it again for him) but Korgan is my all-time favourite.
The situation that literally made me fall off my chair laughing was when you met a party of noobs somewhere (really don't remember where) and after you resque 'em (they are traped by a wizard) you have the option to send them to do a quest for you (a quest YOU had to do). I thought they'd die 'cause i offered them 100 gold and they got really excited about that (newbs :p )
Anyway they got the item for me.. and when they came back they stopped before they ran into me and the leader started talking to the other 2. He said something like "Come on.. we can take these guys, keep the item, get all their gold and all their items" After a short persuation his party agrees and comes to talk to you.
The dialogue is something like "I got the item but i don't wanna give it to you.. blah blah.. you're going to die" After this you character is immediately transformed into the Slayer and kills every one of them.
Now the funny part.. a message on the screen sais " Lord whatever-his-hame (the leader) reloads a previousely saved game" the image fades to black and he comes again to you.. this time giving you the item and not even taking the 100 gold reward.
When i saw that the guy reloads a saved game.. goddamn did i laugh!

I love the comment from Jan when you're standing in the dilemma of accepting your divinity or turning it down in the expansion.
Can't quite recall the exact words, but it's something of an advice in regards to administering divinity - as Jan, of course, has been a god. :)

hahahaahhahah great thread!

my favorite is the exchange between you, the pirate king, and minsc while trying to talk your way into the asylum. IIRC, minsc asks about the absence of the pirate king's parrot, the PK decides that he is "stupider, or is it more stupid?" for talking to you, and sends you off. hahahahaha anyone recall the specifics of that, or have it logged?

I hope that BG3 will have the same dialogs as in BG2 , but i think it will be simple Hack and Slash :(

I think I might still have that; I know I had a saved game right before it, but I can't remember if I kept it or not.
I wanted to change my sig, but I can't think of anything to change it to :(

OH PLEASE!!!
I can't remember his name, but the gnome at the gate of Baldur's Gate... but when you click the guys from BG 1 enough times,they say certain things.

the gnome says:
"I while away the hours, conversing with the flowers, consultingwith the rain..."

Edwin goes off with "I do not understand this mouse magic you control me with!!"

Jaheria :"If a tree falls in the forest... I'll KILL the bastard that cut it down!!!"

Minsc seems to have the lion's share

Many of the characters have some good lines, but it sure seems like Minsc has the most. I just discovered a new one (at least to me)the other night. I decided to try something different and experiment with an aspect of Minsc's ranger skills I hadn't put to use, stealth. With Yoshimo in the party, and a couple of invisibility rings, I hadn't really needed him in that role. But thought I would try him since his stealth% had gotten pretty good 95% now. I put some good studded leather on him and hit the stealth button. I cracked up, he started with a typical comment similar to Imoen or Yoshimo about, "No one can see me" then he said in typical Minsc wisdom, "Though my battle cry may give me away!" Broke me up.

I think that was Quayle who you're specifying. He's right outside the city gates after you cross the Wyrm? :)

Khalid, "Click on some one your own size!"


And while I'm here, can one of you beautiful folks who has expertise with Infinity look up another dialog for me? I realize this must be getting tedious, but I had planned to make a reference in a fiction to an Edwinna/Anomen dialog in which Anomen teases 'her' with false chivalry. I've forgotten the quotes and won't even try to replicate them (as you all know how close I was to the original *last* time. :o ). It would be great if I could have it. :)

There are allot of quotes I like but my favorites aren't from a PC :) there from a guy whos brother is a +12 Hackmaster :D Lilarcor !!

If u converse with Lilarcor and ask "What's ur Status?" he'll just go crazy :D !

But I like: (Yoshimo) "I am ready, I think?"

I don't memorize all but I think all the dialogue's are really funny through-out the whole game
Life equals Strength.

:D My Signature ;)

Minsc:
-See Battle Boo? Run Boo Run!
-Minsc and Boo stand ready.
-I have lost myself in your words, but Boo thinks you're just ducky! Onward!

Edwin:
Yes! I get a chance to throw spells at Paladins(Maybe Berethor will let me play with one!)!

Yoshimo:
-I am ready...I think.
-Very Well...Hiiii-ya.
-Ah, the city, with all it's people and their accumulated wealth, Yes??
Boo will have clean wood shavings you evil bastards! -Minsc
