Guild Wars 2

As the title says. Sometimes, NPCs will walk into the Lion’s Arch trading post building next to the crafting stations.
They serve no purpose, is not there most of the time, but occasionally will stand in front of the TP.

As soon as I press ‘F’ to enter the TP, I’d end up talking to the NPC , note the the ‘Greet [F]’
the NPCs I’ve ‘met’ in 5 mins.
(Kitten it Citizen, i know it’s not a safe time to travel, so please shut up!)
(And you too Sailor, yea, nothing is better then the wind on your back, i get it!)
(And yes, Blood Legion soldier, I was not trying to talk to you, no need to be rude)
(Yes Local, the spirits welcome me, yadayadayada)
(Yes cabbagehead, all deeds are reflected in the dream, whatever)
(And yes, it’s generally nice to see me other citizen)…
… Get the picture?

Then, i have to either move of character, or click on the merchant. While not game breaking, it’s seriously annoying. At least change their pathing to stand at the entrance of the TP, not DIRECTLY IN FRONT of the TP. That or prioritize talking to the TP NPC instead of these filler NPCs which are there simply to annoy you.

That is all.

Bear Shaman isn’t there to annoy you. He’s there to sell you male virility treatments, apparently.

Now that you mention it…. It seems he had been keeping tabs on my character’s night life apparently.

If those NPCs annoy you, then you shouldn’t just complain about it, you should take action.

Load up an Engineer character, find the moving NPCs who get in your way in Lion’s Arch, and hit them with some Slick Shoes. You won’t regret it.

This subject has come up numerous times in the forums. I’ve make exasperated posts about it myself. Yet, these npcs continue to draw virtual breath.

I suspect foul play. They’re not just npcs. They’re observers from a distant future where the current races of Tyria have died out. These observers have been sent back to study us, but they’re out-of-towners and don’t know our customs. Their historical research was only able to uncover a couple of lines of dialogue from our era so that’s all they repeat incessantly under the mistaken impression that they’re blending in.

Oh, and don’t try to sleep with them. They’re likely to be your descendants and that would cause a temporal paradox worse than the Thaumanova reactor thing.

I dunno. Seemed to work out well enough for Phillip J. Fry. I hear he even acquired the ability to fight off the Brainspawn by bangin’ his gramma. -Sid
