Guard might get nervous, a man approaches with his weapon drawn

I love that one xD

"Why, you puffed up ignorant!"

Not a guard quote, but still hilarious.

66 hrs in, and I dont think I have heard this arrow to the knee quote (maybe once) - I just couldnt figure out what everyone was talking about.

However, if I hear the "sneakthief" comment once more from guards, I may do something I shouldnt..hehe.

My character is not even a thief for crying out loud - more paladin type (but I like sneaking with a bow)

Tell me about it, 200 hours in and I've not heard the arrow thing once!, yet I heard lollygagging, sneak thief, sweet roll ten times a day. Odd how these meme things get started.

Been too long since we had a good bandit raid.

With the the greatest respect to the Companions, can you please muzzle that dog....it howls all hours of the night! (Or something like that.)

"Woah woah woah. Watch the magic!"

Whenever I spam healing spells on them for fun.

Pssst. I know who you are.... Hail Sithis.

I just take it as an excuse to protect my secret and send another soul to the void (I slit their throat)

I like that a lot.

Riften guard after just killing a dragon: "I heard the whiterun guards killed a dragon. I wonder... How can mere men take down such a beast?"
lol

Watch the skies traveler. Or travela, however they say it in their accent.

Just heard a new one. Winterhold guard: "hard to believe i complained Riften being cold" :lmao:

Oh yeah! I forgot about that one! thats a good one.

Player: "So what are you in for?"
Borkul: "Murder, Banditry, Assault, Theft... and lollygagging."

Got that one today for the first time, it got me giggling xD He. Has. No. Idea. xD

btw the exact quote is: "With respect, Companion, I ask that you muzzle that dog of yours. The howling coming from Jorrvaskr has gotten out of hand."

"psst, I know who you are... Hail sithis".

Or when wearing the ring of namira (eat corpses), they say "eurh your breath stinks, what have you been eating".

No lollygaggin'.

The only guard voice I like is the younger sounding, higher pitched one. The "Ahnold" sounding one makes me want to kill every character that uses it.

Clavicus Vile: "You forget how much supreme power means until you've been stuck in a cave a few years..."

"We're so dead!"

Whiterun guard whispered that when the jarl's housecarl was rallying us all to fight a dragon. I laughed so hard.

this one, definitely, lol
Also: "That's because there were no dragons, idiot!"
Just loved the banter and interaction of that first dragon hunt, also enjoy watching other npc's interact with eachother, feels much more organic this go round than oblivion did.

"I need to ask you to stop... that... Shouting is making people nervous."

single greatest quote ever for any guard.

Hahaha just kidding! =P

Seriously, probably the random comments on my ebony armor. I personally like the Ahnold guy. I think he was from Age of Conan, wasn't he?

I LOVE that they got that one guy from AoC to do a few lines. The guy in Riften selling Falmerblood Elixir. I always expect him to say "can you do somethin' for meh?" "Crom and Imir!" =P

Oh, and the lady who voiced Mithrelle and the brothel mistress... So awesome they got her! =)

So many others... definitely got the “power of the voice” going on!

EDIT: "Don't think you can barter with me like I'm one of those damned shopkeepers." Lol occupational envy much? =P

"What are you planning on doing with that hammer? Knocking down a house?"

When you're wielding Volendrung.

Okay, you got me there. They did a good job with guards. They are a gem.

"I hear you are the one that gave the Thalmer a black eye..." is a pretty good line. Can't think of the last half of the statement off the top of my head. The guards are pretty great, i like the various accents in different holds, but I would like to be able to walk up to one and ask questions. You would think they would be a great source of work and bounty contracts.

HAHA I just listened to the funniest ever, triggered by.. well most of you know by what but I'm not going to spoil the quest.

"with respect, companion, I ask that you muzzle that dog of yours. The howling coming from Jorrvaskr has gotten out of hand"

That was completely unexpected :lmao:
