As much as I appreciate almost everything that’s been done with Guardian lately and bugs getting fixed, I’ve got to say that this probably one of the very few bugs that I actually didn’t want to see fixed.
Why? Well, “Hold the line!” isn’t bad as far as shouts go. It’s punchy and well-voiced. But what it replaced on Asuran characters makes me kinda sad. Now, for most races, I can understand it’s no big fish as far as I’ve heard/I can see. But Asura had some of the best filler quotes that would pop up when using it. I mean, seriously, with the voicing, some of these were diamond:
“Don’t just stand there, dodge!”
“These supplies should help; Help me take over the world!”
“I claim this victory in the name of me!”
“The difference between stupid and genius, is the same as the difference between you and I!”
And, my personal favourite:
“Compared to me, most Asura have the intelligence of a carrot.”
I know it was infrequent, but I am seriously going to miss having my character come out with those lines. If I didn’t realise it would be an amount of effort to do, I’d even ask if it’d be possible to have them as random alternatives to the normal shouts on a rare chance.
