Alright, “Citizens!”, we have yet another very vocal shouter in Lion’s Arch for an event. Last time it was that gate keeper near the Fractals, but A.Net shut him up finally. This time we have Festive Lionguard shouting to everyone to give him attention.

So, has this caught your attention, Citizens? Please inform us.

The crafting npc is the most annoying, seems like LA doesn’t have one though. I noticed the charr/human kid playing behind the bank got sound turned off though.

Sorry to piggyback on this post but I have to mention very annoying voices of ladies in Divinity’s Reach. I was crafting armor and all I could hear constantly is this obnoxious sound they made: ahh ahhhhh ah ah ahhh (as if eagerly accepting new information). Terrible…

I like that one, it’s quaint. Also, it’s not as repetitive as the one in Lion’s Arch. Every time you pass him he’ll say “Your attention please.”, this is especially noticeable if you go from the bank to the auction house over and over again.

A few nights ago the same loop was taking place by the bank, but the woman wasn’t “ahhh-ing”, she was sort of yawning, I suppose… But having it on a loop like that and for the duration it was going… it certainly didn’t sound like she was just yawning, ifyaknowwatimean…

There’s only one really annoying NPC in each town, the profession guy.

It’s really bothering to be aproached every 2 minutes, to just learn any profession. NO THANKS! -.-" You are FORCED to, if you want to shut them up, I’d rather like to see a dialogue, where you choose NO once, and then never be bothered again. ^^

Yes Divinitys Reach no matter where I am I can always here a woman making sounds, she’ll pick a certain sound and do it like 100 times at different pitches and speeds and then pick a new sound, and just keeps doing that always. So annoying.

Also LA when im crafting at the huntsman machines some human man constantly asks an asuran about outhouses like he has alzheimers or some kind of mental defect and the asuran dosn’t recognise him, I guess all Humans look the same to him…

Annnd…Hoelbrakk… every kittening time I walk to the bank that kitten from the vigil voices her increasingly annoying advertisment… “IS YOUR HUNT DISATISFYING?…”

Also the Grove has some wierd high pitch sqeek that I assume is supposed to be a bird noise constantly being played that kills my ears.

Thats about it for now, I’m sure theres more…

Edit: I just remembered Ebonhawke- Theres some broken NPC always running up to me near the bank saying “I need your help!” but then you talk to him and hes got no event quest to offer, but he just KEEPS coming back saying it over and over OMFG…..

I think the best one is the song that the banker golems play, that needs to happen more often!

Or since it is sort of a pirate town you might actually be able to find someone to silence him for you maby try that inocent looking char guy selling apples close to the bank there is something off about that guy.

I actually really enjoy the conversation where the 2 Sylvari ask the Charr about war and he has some horribly brutal response. Even if I hear it a bunch of times I still enjoy it. I agree though hearing certain conversations in LA a bunch of times in a row gets annoying. However, I do enjoy the background noise in LA, Divinity’s Reach, and The Grove. I just consider the constant laughing and moaning to be some rather….“active”….citizens.

Personally I think a slider in settings is the ideal solution to npc audible dialog. The slider would adjust the frequency of such dialog in a percentage adjustment based on a base interval for each dialog. Which would allow those who find certain frequent dialog annoying to tone it down etc. Basically allows everyone to adjust this kind of thing to their liking. Some of the stuff I find annoying other things I don’t and not everyone finds the same things annoying. In fact this allows them to retain all audible dialog instead of completely removing it to satisfy those who find it annoying.

Slider example: Far left 0% change far right 500% slower interval. So if the normal interval is 15 seconds then at far right it would be 1 minute 15 seconds. I don’t know if any npc repeats stuff that fast. Though the fractal npc was close to that. So if the fastest interval was like 30 seconds or 1 minute then with 500% at the right end of the slider would set them to 2.5 minutes or 5 minutes respectively.
