Funniest BG series moment

Remove all ads!

Self explanatory but what is your funniest moment in the whole BG series? whether it's something you did, saw, heard, or something that remided you of something in real life.

For me it was when I first got into D&Ding (or rpg games in general for that matter) and I started fooling around with the Console droping Cow kills on enemies .

Another moment for me was when I was trying to kill Silke in Beregost, I got so frustrated i decided to cheat by consoling about 50 killer chickens to kill her, and that's when I discovered the "Drizzt Defends" command (although sometime after)

"Bondari Reloads".

(Edit) The whole Bondari scene really.

Bondari reloads is great.

Edwin becoming Edwina was another good one for me. "Her" lines, I thought, were far funnier than Edwin's.

 

"You're untouched by the civilization, he'll cast magic missile and I will backstab!"

Lillarcor, Cespenairs' comments.

"Minsc, I'm curious. That tatoo on your face. Does it have some tribal significnce or did some nursery school asault you with blue pastels?"
"I don't likie the tone of your voice, dark elf. The face I have is the face ladies like! Boo likes Minsc's face too, don't you Boo? Don't you?"

und viele mehr!

 

Aren't those moments from BG1?
This is the BG2 TOB forum right?

 

When Minsc meets the Pirate Lord

Jan's interactions with the party.

Tiax from when you meet him and in Spellhold.

 

Bondari.

'In two days Tim will be able to tell me about my dagger!'

'I say farewell in a manner suitably unfettered by civilisation.'

Seeing Thalantyr casting the amazing 'Antichickenator' was pretty funny too.

Or the hobgoblins in Firkraag's dungeon. 'We won't kill old ladies for a job anymore! Only for fun. That's OK I think.'

 

(Breaths a sigh of relief that Tal approves )

I thought pcs lines to the Pirate lord in Brynlaw were hillarious. And for anyone that's played the Imoen romance, when Imoen steals the Bracelet from the merchant.

 

The Korgan/Aerie conversation were fun.

 

Definitely the Bondari sequence. That was histarical.

The first time I killed Firkraag with a Quivering Palm, I just sat here laughing about the absurdity of it.

 

Deinfitely Bondari reloading. I was laughing so hard I had to pause the game for a few minutes.

Lillarcor...though I'll admit I didn't read the write up so it took me the better part of an hour to figure out where that voice was coming from.

And Cespenar 's Martha comment was another great one...

 

I definitely agree that the whole Bondari thing is the funniest thing in the whole series.

However, the time I laughed the most was a completely random coincidence:

The party enters the tavern in Trademeet for the first time. Viekang sees the PC, screams like hell and "explodes". Immediately after, Imoen says: "Now I remember why traveling with you was always so much fun!"

What a heartless b...!

Totally random, but it had me rolling on the floor!

Any other "unintentionally funny" moments?

 

The Bondari sequence is pretty funny, though it would have been nice if the designers had decided to write a plot for ToB rather than a buch of silly episodes such as Bondari and the were-chinhilla.

I thought it was here on the SP boards, but I remember someone telling the tale about how the party was getting slaughtered, and his PC died. However, right before the 'dying/game over' movie (get a mental picture of this movie, first) Imoen started saying her 'injured' line so that this played over the movie:

"Someone give me a hand over here, please."

 

CamDawg, I was just about to post that, actually. Yeah, it was here on the SP boards that that was discussed. In fact, there was a funniest moments thread here about a year ago.

That Bondari thing was hilarious. It was also pretty funny whenever Nalia says that "How are we helping people by trudging around in here?" whenever I was helping her do her quest.

 

Almost all of Minsc's quotes.

There's the conversation Imoen has with Keldorn in ToB...where she says that she is attracted to him, but actually steals his ring...very funny.

Almost all of Jan's conversations...especially the ones with Anomen and Minsc and Boo!!

Minsc vs Pirate Lord...HILARIOUS!!

Chromatic Orb got the Black Dragon in Suldenesselar after a Lower Resistance...I thought that HAD to be a bug, but it was pretty funny.

A jester of mine sang an entire roomful of baddies into killing themselves...man, that was FUNNY!!

 

In general I go for humor that's not silly or dumb like Minsc so that's out (well three hip-hip-hoorays for me then ) I enjoyed the witty and constructive humor like the Keldorn/Imoen and Mazzy/Jan Dialogs, and the one about Ano the half orc was hillarious.

 

I thought it was here, glad to know the brain isn't going soft yet... didn't want to take credit for someone else's joke after all.

Some of the spontaneous player lines can be unintentionally funny. Nalia's dungeon line is one (especially if it occurs when clearing out her own keep) and I got a snicker the other day when Minsc started yelling his "hamsters and rangers everywhere, rejoice" line while we were disguised as drow in the Underdark. Subtle and Minsc just don't mix.

 

Just so ya'll know, these were taken from the NPC Interactions Guide in the Tips & Tricks section on SP...these would definitely count as some of the funniest moments in BG...

-------------------------------
Imoen: So. You’re part of the Order of the Most Radiant Heart, right, Anomen? The paladins and Clerics that run around Amn getting outraged at everthing?

(If Anomen passed his test)
Anomen: I find your description bordering on insult, girl ... but, yes, I am a member of the Order. Why?
Imoen: Well, a full hundred of them marched up all solemn-like up to Candlekeep about ten years ago, all to donate a single book to the monks. Do you know anything about that?
Anomen: No, but it sounds like something the Order might do, depending on the book.
Imoen: It was a big book, as I recall. I stole into the archive to look at it ... did you know it had all sorts of pictures of naked men and women? Total filth! I’m surprised the Order even had something like that.
Anomen: No doubt it was a book of great evil. Perhaps the Order gave it over to the care of your monks so that it would not be used by those of impure intentions.
Imoen: Well, I don’t know about that. Winthrop caught me peeking and gave me hell like you wouldn’t believe ... but I noticed he kept the book in his room after that point.
Anomen: Vile girl! I’ll not listen to any more of this! Go bother (CHARNAME)!

(If Anomen failed his test)
Anomen: Ha! An apt description of those blowhards, if ever I had heard one. No, dear girl ... I am no member of the Order, although I was a novice. Why do you ask?
Imoen: Well, a full hundred of them marched up all solemn-like up to Candlekeep about ten years ago, all to donate a single book to the monks. Do you know anything about that?
Anomen: No, but it sounds like something the Order might do, depending on the book.
Imoen: It was a big book, as I recall. I stole into the archive to look at it ... did you know it had all sorts of pictures of naked men and women? Total filth! I’m surprised the Order even had something like that.
Anomen: You don’t say? Well maybe the Prelate was finished with it and gave it to the head of your monks as something of a present? Those paladins are quite the repressed lot of stuffed shirts, you know.
Imoen: Oh, they’re not so bad, I guess. Better them than some of the evil I’ve seen ... they can just be kinda pompous, as I remember. You’re not as bad as I figured you might be, though, Anomen.
Anomen: Well, I’m glad you think so. I escaped from their clutches just in time, I suppose, eh?

----------------------------

Keldorn: Imoen! What ... are you pawing at me yet again? Do you think I do not notice. You are trying to pickpocket me, aren’t you!?
Imoen: Well, no ... I just ...
Keldorn: Just what? Out with it girl. I won’t have a party member stealing from me.
Imoen: No, no, that’s not it! I ... I was just ... I was just trying to find out if you’re as muscular under your armor as you look.
Keldorn: Eh? What’s this?

Imoen: Oh, I know that you’re married and all that, Keldorn ... but do you have *any* idea how good you look? I ... I can’t help myself, I just want to touch you all the time!
Keldorn: Imoen! I ... I have a daughter the same age as you!
Imoen: I don’t know what it is, Keldorn ... maybe it’s the Bhaal essence in me. I just want to run my fingers through your hair and nibble on your ears! Oh, Keldorn, you drive me so wild!
Keldorn: By Torm, no! This is terrible! I ... I had no idea I had this effect on you ...
Imoen: Oh, get over yourself, Keldorn! Sheesh. (giggle!) Here’s your ring back. I won’t take it again, I promise.

----------------------------

Korgan: Hhmp. Imoen, yer an o’er-lame excuse fer a member o’ this party and I be tired of exertin’ meself to protect ye! Next time I let ye perish, screamin’ like a ninny as ye does!
Imoen: The last time I saw you exert yourself over anything was the last slab of pork in an inn. If you could keep up with me with that beer gut of yours I’d be amazed.
Korgan: Beer gut?! Why, ye stinkin’ wench, how dare ye! Keep up with me axe as if flies toward yer head, more like! Though it’d be like splittin’ a hair, skinny as ye are!
Imoen: I’d be started if a drunk dwarven oaf like yourself could hit the broad side of barn with your axe. And while we’re talking about stench, let’s talk about the last time you passed out in your own vomit.
Korgan: An outrage! Yer be a canker on me backside and the world best be rid of ye! Loathsome mongrel she-dog!
Imoen: Brutish pig! You’re nothing but a boil needing lancing!
Korgan: I’ve seen harlots wi’ less open sores than ye, ye pimple-faced, whining gutter-snipe!
Imoen: You cantankerous, foul-mouthed excused for a gully dwarf!
Korgan: Gully dwarf? Har har! Ye know how to hit low, ye does! Har har! Yer a fine, fine lass, ye are, Imoen. That Gorion of yers would be proud!
Imoen: Aw, gee. Thanks, Korgan!

---------------------

Imoen: So, Valygar ... word on the street is that ya killed your parents. Is that true? Sounds pretty horrid, if ya ask me.
Valygar: You consider *this* acceptable casual conversation? Just walk up and ask someone if they killed their parents?
Imoen: Would you prefer to let the rumor mill have its way?
Valygar: I could care less what people have to say about me. People have talked about my family all my life.
Imoen: Well, that’s a pretty sour attitude. You know, they say your face freezes like that.
Valygar: For someone who supposedly has her soul tainted by the evil of a dead god, you remind me considerably of a chipmunk with a sugar high and a death wish.
Imoen: Oooh! Funny! That’s good!

---------------------

Minsc: Ooo, squirrels Boo! I know I saw them! Quick, throw nuts!
Jaheira: Minsc, could you please maintain a little grace while in nature’s presence? Sometimes I simply do not know how you came by your title of ranger.
Minsc: Do you wish me dour and sour like most others? No, I say not. The animals run and play without care, and I would too ... if such a thing would not squish Boo flat.
Jaheira: But your duties are serious things, Minsc. Do you realize that?
Minsc: I am very serious! Boo would not let me shirk my duties! I would not want to shirk anything! No shirking, no sir!
Jaheira: Admirable, Minsc, but you use that word like you don’t know what it means.
Minsc: Eh, well ... no ... but it sounds sharp and painful and I always reserve such things for freaks that might steal those squirrels’ nuts!
Jaheira: Good job, Minsc. You keep it up.

---------------------------

Aerie: You seem to be limping, Jan. Have you been hurt recently?
Jan: No, lass, I’m not hurt and the limp is not new. I’ve had it as long as you’ve known me. ‘Tis a wooden leg you see. I was smuggling crackers into Waterdeep several years back (The Council had outlawed them due to near constant cracker-related debauchery, you see... I couldn’t let THAT pass. The Council had sealed off all ports and mobilized the army to stop all cracker entry. The city was shut down, martial law was declared and people huddled in their homes for fear and want of crackers. I could not stand idly by while such persecution was visited on the somewhat innocent peoples of Waterdeep. So I smuggled crackers. Salted, unsalted, and herb-riddled alike, it mattered not. All came in and all were consumed in secret orgies of cracker-related tomfoolery. Then came the unpleasant business with the hanging. I hadn’t seen Picklefeather’s eyes bulge like that since that Wyvern kicked him in the ba... (Oops! Innocent elvish lass, have to watch the tongue) uh... in the arm. (Yes, that will do.) The moral of the story is, you reap what you sow. I still own a warehouse full of saltines. I send a box each year to all my friends. Seem to have fewer friends each year as a result, but that’s to be expected.
Aerie: What does that have to do with your wooden leg?
Jan: What wooden leg? I have no wooden leg?
Aerie: Grrrr! You’re IMPOSSIBLE!
Jan: Why yes, I suppose I am, at that. (grin)

--------------------------------

Jan: Anomen, my friend, I realize that I’ve been less than polite with you in the past and I wish to apologize.
Anomen: Verily, you have played me most false.
Jan: Indeed! All know that you’re an unrepetant ass. ‘Tis not my place to bring it up.
Anomen: Shut up, gnome.
Jan: Your ugliness, both in body and soul, although true, is inappropriate for discussion and rankly impolite. You’re stupid, poorly educated, and always smell faintly of lilacs, but it was wrong of me to bring attention to it.
Anomen: Silence before I CRACK YOUR SKULL!
Jan: Arrogant, drunken, whiny, pompous are common adjectives used to describe you, but I was wrong to say so. You are completely incapable of independent thought and soil yourself with regularity seldom found outside of a nursery. I shall no longer bring these things up in front of others. Well I’m glad that, despite your idiocy, you managed to grasp the concept of my apology and mumble some poorly-worded forgiveness. Cheers!

-------------------

Funny eh? Lemme know if you want some more... but I would recommend just going and reading the whole file for yourself...its a boon for all those chaps who like to solo all the time, like me...

 

"I turned to shield Boo and have lost my spell. I am NOT sorry."

This had me rolling with laughter for a while and it still brings a smile to my face. Also, Minsc's entering Hell monologue is pretty funny.

"I feel your stares! DIE! DIE!"

Best Edwina line ever.
Last one comes from a wierd mod interaction. I had both Imoen's and Nalia's romance installed and was romancing Nalia. Well right before your marriage there is a forced rest. So I go to sleep the night before my wedding and I get Imoen's 2nd dream. That was just too strange to be anything but hilarious.
