Mine was from the Freakshow..."Let's set something on fire next!"

I liked Peter Kent's "..I guess I'll just have to reveal...oh a hero" line.
Not exactly what he said but it made me laugh.

The Galaxy refugee crowd in Atlas was getting all huffy and impatient, and one of them pipes up with: "I dropped a twenty and the wind blew it away. When are you police going to do something about the wind around here?"

Given the vast possibilities of what our characters could look like... and considering the truly horrible origin stories of some of them... my favorite line from an NPC will always be...

"I hope my children grow up to be just like you!"

Some of the autogenerated praise could be pretty funny.
"All of Paragon owes a debt to Master of Debt!"
"Man, that was a close one. Atlas-Park Protector came through in the nick of time for Steel Canyon!"

And ta keep from gettin' old,

These are my all time favorites:

[NPC] Freakshow Student: D00d, thanks for the save. I happen to like my face and having it torn off would suck.

[NPC] Support Automaton: Prepare to die, Healix? I believe that is the one.
[NPC] Support Automaton: What is that line they say in the movie?

[NPC] Soldier Automaton: These are the last days of your [BAD PUN NOT FOUND].

[NPC] Short Fang: So he says to Ghost Widow, 'No, go screw yourself.' She just fixes him with this cold glare and puts her hand through his chest. Loser died. No teleporter, no nothin'. Spookiest thing I ever saw...

[NPC] Luddite Friar: Well, science has invoked many ills upon society...
[NPC] Luddite Brawler: Does this mean I have to throw away my PSP?

[NPC] Ben: I'm hoping they come up with a Healix action figure! She deserves it!

Becky, the Tarantula Mistress (http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Vernon_von_Grun#Investigate_Devouring_Earth_attack_on_Arachnos_base)

QuoteLike, Ohmigawd! Character! We are so gonna totally rock now!
Like, I have always SOOO wanted to meet you!
And now we can like, totally fight together and all sorts of stuff.
All the other Fortunatas were all TOTALLY like 'Tarantula Program? Eeew!'
And then they were like, 'Like, what are you thinking, Becky?'
And I was totally like 'I'll get to meet all kinds of interesting people and stuff.'
And look, here I am, like, totally fighting alongside YOU!
This is even better then when I worked with Silver Mantis.
She's, like, totally uptight, until you get to know her, y'know?
But this is sooo much better than that.

As well as a +1 for Fergusun's homies speech, there's one from a nemesis mission where a guy has created an automaton girlfriend which has speech with things like [INSERT FLIRTATIOUS DIALOG] in it, but I can't identify the contact or mission.

I never turned down an invite for Flux's Frostfire mish. During the cutscene, he'd get interrupted by a thug, turn around and frost him, and say "Shutup you moron!" Dunno why but I'd say it with him and laugh every time. I'm smilin' just thinkin' about it.

I seem to remember one of The Family (speaking to a terrified victim), "Your mouth wrote a check, and now your face is going to pay." Always made me laugh.

The McHackersmith hero-side Tip mission, maybe? I remember the automaton gal in that one having some similar lines.

My two favorites that stand out in my mind:

Two Freakshow, from "The Cult of the Shaper" Story Arc:

QuoteBefore combat:

Freakshow 1: You know,
Freakshow 2: What?
Freakshow 1: this whole 'Cult of the Shaper' thing was fun at first,
Freakshow 2: True.
Freakshow 1: but it's starting to go a little too far.
Freakshow 2: Dude, I was so thinking the exact same thing. Maybe we should go back after this is over?

Combat start:

Freakshow 1: Ah, man! Why do we keep falling into these patterns of self-destructive behavior?

Another one is a random Skull in Kings Row (pretty sure that's where I heard it, might have been in a mission):

QuoteSkull Ganger: I'm going to do a B&E on your face! Wait... that didn't sound right...

There are others, but those are the two that stand out at the moment :)

Lyc~

Doc Buzzsaw had some cool lines too " Oh, what has science wrought? I sought only to turn a man into a metal-encased juggernaught of destruction powered by the unknown properties of a mysterious living crystal. How could this have all gone wrong?" for example.

Post by: PunkusJR on August 30, 2013, 06:30:20 PM
Reading through these is great xD I think it was a morality mission. I can't remember half of what they said, but it was the one where the woman was trying to convert the freakshow. Just that entire mission. Every part of it is some of my favorite dialogue.

The last thing I did in-game was walk a friend through the Mender Tesseract TF redside, because he'd never run in before. We were clicking on everything looking for all the hidden hilarious messages. It was my favorite TF because it was loaded with some of the most outrageous NPC comments in the entire game. AAAGH! I wanna run it again SOOO bad now.

One of my faves was Lady Grey.  You are there to defend her from Nemesis in a conference room.  Her angry response to his monologue is:

"Pretty Little Head!!!"

Not really an NPC line but I've always had this in my head from the hours of loading screen *tips*

Go. Hunt. Kill Skuls.

"We were wrong! He's just a gifted surgeon, and nothing more!"

"Truly, I am merely a gifted surgeon, and nothing more."

"You fool! He's merely a gifted surgeon, and nothing more!"

"We must attack the hero and completely ignore Dr. Stephen Fayte!"

"Ah. Well, I'll just let you handle this."

"Yes, as he is merely a surgeon and nothing more, he is no threat to us."

After the fight -

"That was a timely extraction from imminent peril, as I am merely a surgeon and nothing more."


The great part about this gag is if you go along with it in RP: "I'm glad we got him out of there, for he is merely a gifted surgeon and nothing more." 

Once had someone say: "Now wait a minute! You're just repeating what he said! He's got you under mind control, he's some kind of sorcerer supreme!"

"No my good man, you have it all wrong, for he is merely a gifted surgeon, and nothing more..."

Etc... Etc... :D


I'm also the guy who, on Virtue Server - did this:

This was one of my all-time favorite missions. One, because of the NemStaff, and two, because of that line right there. So yeah, that one.

Arbiter Daos: "A base here or there is a small price to pay for good mad science."

And Vernon von Grun from the same story arc: "I don't know if you've noticed but I've been trying a couple different styles of evil laugh. It's hard to pick the right one."

You know... I always heard him using Doofinsmertz voice from Phineas and Ferb. XD And I loved him. "Laugh with me now!"

Also, I did love the "those who live by the sword get shot by those who don't" as mentioned earlier.


I forgot the exact quote, but it's one of Fusionette's during the Vanguard set of missions. I was on my primary Rogue alt and she is the ONLY one to give the "This is my cousin" line to. He was mortified and it was epic. XD Also, Sand's "I'm an arbiter" in reply to anything was great.

There were some things that were just generic NPC chatter, I think.

It wasn't supposed to be said by an NPC but the "you've been brainwashed too" line from the villain tutorial has become a running joke with some of my friends.
