It felt very forced and out of place, I have to agree with it being quite poor writing.

Maybe part of her personality as a character is saying forced, out of place things?

I found it both a surprise (from out of no where) and funny. Good work Anet lol.

“The writing is truly getting worse and worse.”

The writing on the part of Anet is nowhere near as bad as your statement here….I love irony.

Since when did this business of being a hero become being a business?

One of the things I really love about this game is that the NPCs say things now and then that make me chuckle.

I must object, as a cynical necromancy with a humor that even makes even insects go silent from how bad it is, this is perfectly in character (same for Ozzy)!

When life gives you lemon, ask if its from a anime or manga.

I laughed. It’s nice to see a character in a serious moment take a non-serious break to lighten the mood. It’s… like something I’d say.

It made me laugh too, seemed perfectly in character for Marjory, dry, well delivered and exactly her style.

I quite like her and Kasmeer I think they’re developing quite nicely as recognisable characters.

I liked it. Made me laugh. I think lines like this are fine when sporadically peppered into the game, not made the norm.

Also, are Marjory & Kasmeer lovers? I get that vibe.

Just as I thought the story telling aspect was finally getting serious… I literally cringed when she said that.

Guild Wars 2 is not a sequel to the original Guild Wars but merely an alternative story setting.

It’s good work. You guys have to remember that cutscene with Thackeray months ago. She is a 40’s crime drama Noir reference with today’s sensibilities. That line made me laugh.

Wait, was this sentence here an actual dialogue line from in-game? What “40’s” in Tyria would this be referring to? 1240? 1140? 1040? Were crime/noir novels prevalent in these time periods? I always cringe when mmo’s pull down the third wall by referencing something from the real world. It’s usually done for cheap laughs and in a distasteful manner.

No, it’s not a sentence from in game, google “Marjory’s journal youtube” to see the cutscene he’s referring to.

I think the line he’s referring to is the “like a norn fart at a moot” line.

C’mon, everybody likes fart jokes. The fact that the word is not even censored on this forum if proof of that.

I personally would have said the mesmeric veil was dropping like Dolly Parton’s training bra, but to each their own.

Have we forgotten this line already?

“Captain Evon Gnashblade: My fault? You’re a mouse fart who thinks she’s a hurricane. Please.”

Anet intentionally makes interesting (to put it mildly) remarks through their characters to make us chuckle.

Don’t look at me like that. Whatever you’ve heard, it’s probably not true.

Evon’s fart joke actually made sense to situation. Mouse farts are, naturally, insignifigant compared to a hurricane, which is the point Evon was making. He was taunting Kiel by saying she thinks she’s more important than she really is.

Marjory’s is… wierd. I don’t really get the point she’s trying to make. The veil went down… quickly, as farts are? Without notice, because during a party who’s going to notice a fart? Or is she saying it was very noticable and everyone turned to the source?

At a Moot, Norns are going to drop farts as hard and fast as they can, because they’re all drunk and don’t care. So I guess that’s where she was going, also calling a Moot – a Norn’s coming of age/proving themselves – to be nothing short of a frat party.

OK, so how does that pertain to the veil of the tower being dropped exactly?

Most of Jory’s lines suit the noir detective style that her intro cinematic also had.

Put her voice behind a sleazy sax and imagine her standing in a dimly lit alley in a trenchcoat and you get the idea.

Whether or not that fits Tyria is another matter. Personally I think she’s swell.
