Well, I was hunting Orc this morning, and I got to thinking. Wouldn't it be interesting if when another orc walked into the room they said something like, "Brother, why did you not tell me we were being attacked?" Or if they walk into the room as you're giving out the final blow, have them say, "I never really liked him much anyways."
Well thats my thought of the day.
Well thats my thought of the day.
Except it'd be something more like "Deez bitchaz bee keelin' you?" The orcs have the weirdest dialect I've seen in a (not obviously self mocking) fantasy game.
Waaaay back when I played Aetolia (would've been 5 years ago now?) the Cabalists had a program where we were trying to give every sentient mob conversation topics. So you could SAY things around them and ASK BOZO specific things if you needed more information (further proof that First Niuri was the bees knees). It didn't get very far because my sect got sucked away and I ended up being shop manager, but whatever. I think it would be really nifty to have more random indications that we're not just killing worms.
Also, to stem off the people I know will skim through it, she's not suggesting that they auto-defend. You know you were going to say it.

*chuckle at big'uns*
Anyway, I like the idea. They're some of the rare commonly hunted creatures that actually -talk-, so giving them some more stuff to talk about would be nice.
Though I don't care about that right now. I want Bardic results.
I hope this Truelight event and Lusty's 3rd anniversary won't push them way back like IRE's 10th anniversary did.

Yes, yes they do.... heh big'uns.....? big what?? that leaves a bit to much up to my devious mind... I think a lot of the game's set characters are up for an upgrade. I like what you said about Aetolia.. too bad i never played. they should do that n stuff
