(MP3) Borgia Messenger *pleading for his life*: “I’m only a courier-boy! Mercy! You can have it!”

I don’t know about all the other ports (PS3/Xbox 360), but on the PC release of AC:Brotherhood, I realized that the Borgia Messengers don’t seem to say anything when they:

  • Spot you
  • When you chase them, or
  • When you finally catch/tackle them

I’m guessing it’s either it’s a bug/glitch, or something the developers decided that they could just leave out.  The worst part is that this is true for many other characters in-game (civilians and guards)… such a shame!  This wasn’t the case in the PC release of AC2, where EVERYONE in-game played their FULL SET of voice clips.

Really? I thought they did. Though there are times where you see subtitles, but you don’t hear the target because you’re too far from them.

Thanks for the submissions!

(MP3/Fan-made) Annoying the Guards 2

Angry Borgia Guard

——-

Ezio: *bumps into Guard*

Guard:  “Ehh, calm down!  You’re obviously quite the wit(?)!  I’m considered a funny man too, you know!  Stop, or I’ll RIP your spine out, one notch at a time!  Si?  Walk the right road from now on, alright straniero?”

Ezio: *makes an obscene Italian hand-gesture towards the Guard*

Guard:  “What!?  COME HERE, DANNATO!  YOU need a lesson in basic survival skills!  Part One:  You don’t even take a SHIT without permission while I’m on duty!  Next time, NO TALKING… I’ll simply RUN you through… CAPITO?!”

Ezio:  *unimpressed*

Guard:  Stupid pilgrims… pellegrini!

Ezio: *steals the Guard’s money pouch*

Guard:  “WHAT!?!  ARRRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!”

Ezio: *runs away*  (with a smirk on his face, no less)

Guard:  “Those a-quick feet will be the first of many things we remove!!!”

(MP3) “Minstrel Screaming + Wallpaper” (part 2)

Some time ago somebody actually asked me on YouTube for the sound of the minstrel screaming in my first video of my Mercenaries bullying a Minstrel in the Pantheon.  Now, I’m a nice person (yeah, right)… so, here it is!  And for an exceptional value, a deal you won’t find anywhere else, I include TWO wallpapers to accompany it!  (click the images to view them at their full size; 1400x900px)

Minstrel Wallpaper 2

Fontana del Pantheon

There are actually TWELVE Minstrels in this scene… but three are behind the fountain, near the hind feet of the horse, and two are obscured by Ezio at the elevated center of the fountain, unfortunately.

WHAT THE HELL WITH THE SECOND SCREENSHOT.

(MP3) Herald/Civilian: “Damn, not again! Can’t a fellow live in peace!? MERCY, MERCY, I’VE DONE NOTHING!”

This one was just too funny for me, so I kept these two sounds together in one MP3.

I’m feeling so EVIL these days!!  I saved these civilians from the corrupt Borgia family, only to toss them around like rag dolls!  I really wished they would’ve included some sort of unlockable cheat that would’ve let us play through the game (the solo missions of any AC game) as anyone we wanted… like for me… naturally, I’d be either a Mercenary, a Seeker, a Brute… or better yet, Bartolomeo D’Alviano (complete, with all of his taunts)!  XD

(MP3) Herald/Civilian: “Damn, not again! Can’t a fellow live in peace!? MERCY, MERCY, I’VE DONE NOTHING!”

(MP3) Minstrel Begging (set 1)

“Why do this!?  Please!  I am no enemy!”

“I will be a better man, I promise… mercy, Lord!!!”

“I-I’ll sing a DIFFERENT song, I promise!”

“FORGIVE me, ‘noble one’… I sought only to please you!”

“I’ve always been good… MERCY!”

“Let me live, please… I can PAY you!”

“ *grunt* GET OFF ME!”

“ *gasp* GET YOUR DIRTY HANDS OFF ME!”

“Merda!  LET GO!”

“Ummf! Guh! A-uh! Aagh!!” (grabbed, thrown off-balance, and landing on the ground #1)

“Ummf! Guh! uh-AHh! UGH!!” (grabbed, thrown off-balance, and landing on the ground #2)

—————-

I don’t know why, but lately, this particular Minstrel keeps appearing more often than the others.  So I figured, why not take advantage of this grand opportunity and *record* all the possible quotes of him begging me to spare him!  I’ve done my best to drag him into a corner, where there is no echo/reverberation.  I also equalized the left and right audio channels so it won’t sound loud in one speaker, soft in the other.  And again, for simplicity, I’ve spliced everything into ONE MP3 file for your listening convenience.  Enjoy!

**Note:  This upload is meant to replace some of the ones I’ve uploaded previously from this particular Minstrel.**

Awesome! Thanks for the submission!

(MP3) Herald: “ASSASSIN! Run, RUN!!! ASSASSIN ON THE LOOSE!”

Herald:  “ASSASSIN!  Run, RUN!!!  ASSASSIN ON THE LOOSE!”

—-

I forgot to include the part where the Herald was saying something *before* that.  Something like how the Papacy was giving the authorization to

“…raise the rents of the rione’s (district’s) churches and holdings.  In these uncertain times, Christianity’s war-chest must be kept BRIMMING!”

Luckily for the “Cittadini” (citizens), I saved them from having to listen to –more– bad news!  XD

Thanks for the submission!

(MP3; fan-made): Ezio PAYS a Minstrel to annoy a guard…

As a ‘thank you’, for creating this Tumblr page and for putting-up with my spamming of sound clip submissions (and for my hostility towards Minstrels), I made this one ESPECIALLY for you, kind Admin. 😉

Can you imagine it though? A bunch of Minstrels runs up to annoy you (like, say for a few seconds). Then as a small group of guards walk by, you lock-on to one of them and you pay/hire the Minstrels to annoy the group… so, they skip/run merrily like little rabbits towards the guards, all while you make a clean get-away and laugh your ‘culo’ off! 😀

—————————-

Ezio: *whistles and hires a minstrel*

Ezio: *points to a guard* “Alright, go!”

Minstrel: ♫ “Justicia, justicia… behold and come see this day! Dance and sing ‘till Guards fall down… and the moon comes out to play!” ♫

Guard: “Eh, this is a-my watch, buffone… and here, I’M A KING. I don’t take kindly to idiots upsetting my peace!”

Minstrel: “Mercy, I’ve done nothing wrong!”

Guard: *successfully annoyed*

Minstrel (running for his life): “Was my melody not to your LIKING Signore!?!?!”

Guard: “Why run, amico?! It’s just a little PRICK as the blade slides home!”

Minstrel: “NO! PLEASE! I AM A FRIEND!!!!”

Guard: “You’ll soon be but a STAIN ON THE GROUND!”

Minstrel: “No… no!! Stay away from me!!!”

Guard: “SOMEONE KILL HIM!!!!”

Ezio: “Heh-heh!!”

Alright, I admit. That made me laugh. XD

Thank you kindly for the gift!
