While most of gaming is not poetry, there are some badass quotes by some badass characters. Which are your favorites?

my top 3

That scene that I'm not going to post because you know why

Assassin's Creed

"When I was a young man; I had liberty but I didn’t see it, I had time but I didn’t know it, I had love but I didn’t feel it. Many decades would pass before I understood the meaning of all three. But now the twilight of my life this understanding has past into contentment, Love liberty and time once so disposable are diffused that drive me forward and Love was especially Mucaro for you our children our brothers sisters and for the vast and wonderful world that gave us life and keep us guessing endless affection Meu Sofia, Forever Yours" -Ezio Auditore de Ferenze

"If only I could be so grossly incandescent."

Not so much a badass quote, but I find it very charming and always enjoy Solaire's dialogue when meeting him in-game.

The games are too stressful for someone like me, but I do like their atmosphere and lore.

"That's not the brain tumbler."
"Oh, I guess I'm escaping then. Bye!"

Dr. Sbaitso

Dr. Sbaitso was an artificial intelligence program for MS-DOS-based personal computers distributed with various sound cards published by Creative Labs. The program would "converse" with the user as if it was a psychologist, though most of its responses were along the lines of "WHY DO YOU FEEL...

I was waiting for this one.

[Kuranghi]

This from Max Payne 3 always brought a smile to my face:

"I wouldn't know right from wrong if one of them was helping the poor and the other was banging my sister..."

I love a lot of the dialogue in that game, Max Payne 1 and 2 are just as good in different ways but I prefer the tone of 3 overall.

MAy Payne 2:
"The past is a puzzle, like a broken mirror. As you piece it together, you cut yourself, your image keeps shifting. And you change with it. It could destroy you, drive you mad. It could set you free." and nearly anything from Duke3D, Blood and Shadow Warrior. Man, 90s build engine fps were great.

[BlackTron]

I was pretty floored by some of Sheik's lines in OOT when about to teach you a song.

The flow of time is always cruel.
Its speeds seems different for each person, but no one can change it.
A thing that doesn't change with time is a memory of younger days.
In order to come back here again, play the Minuet of Forest.

Time passes, people move... Like a river's flow, it never ends.
A childish mind will turn to noble ambition. Young love will become deep affection. The clear water's surface reflects growth.
Now listen to the Serenade of Water to reflect upon yourself.

“Ellie, we really are the last of us.”

Whoa! Spoilers dude.

 

[Saint Boot]

He really is amazing. I pre ordered that Switch game. I know they are doing a full remake as well, but I really wish this version was also on PlayStation 4 as I would double dip.

I don't know why but I love that quote

 

[Tschumi]

I think it's cute - like, kawaii - that you kick off your op with a halo quote that isn't

"This cave is not a natural formation; it must lead somewhere!"

Jokes aside, there are so so many to choose from. An ocean of them. I wait a moment for one to rise to the top and ...
