while scrounging in the bg2 files for sound effects i stumbled across the "error" voice that tells you "you must gather your party etc", and in bg1 also said "you may not rest here; either find an inn or rest outside".
besides those two which were put into the game, they also did about 20 more, ranging from generic descriptions "you have detected a mechanical trap" to contextually annoying "your spell has been disrupted."
anyone remember the game Gauntlet? apparently bioware does because there are 3 files of the narrator saying things like "blue elf is about to die" and "don't shoot the food".
but the kicker is ERROR28. imagine that somber, low-pitched voice telling you "we have detected you are using a pirated copy. your hard drive will be formatted in ten seconds. thank you."
i'm thinking of making an NPC that randomly teleports in and says this or letting the cowled wizards say it when they come to punish you for casting a spell.
