Protocol 3: Protect the Pilot

One of the best campaigns I have ever played and definetly my favourite shooter.

"Everyone thinks they're the hero of their own story" - Handsome Jack

Generally the last episode of Tales from the Borderlands is fucking awesome when it comes to Handsome Jack quotes.

"Snake? Snake? Snaaaaaaaaaaaaake!"

All your base are belong to us.

"GET OVER HERE!"

"I'm going to the one place capitalism hasn't corrupted yet... Space!"

"Damn, I look GOOD" Duke Nukem.

"I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow in the knee"

GET UP ON THE HYDRA'S BACK

Shaun!

Since so many other quotes are already claimed, how about some Outer Wilds:

Seriously, I tried everything I could think of [...], and neither idea worked.

Go for the eyes Boo, go for the eyes!

I'll share some of my favourites from SMAC (1999), the undisputed, undefeated and overall best 4X game!

Pravin Lal:

• "As the Americans learned so painfully in Earth's final century, free flow of information is the only safeguard against tyranny. The once-chained people whose leaders at last lose their grip on information flow will soon burst with freedom and vitality, but the free nation gradually constricting its grip on public discourse has begun its rapid slide into despotism. Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master."

Sister Miriam:

• "The Morgans fear what may not be purchased, for a trader cannot comprehend a thing that is priceless."
• "Some would ask: 'how could a perfect God create a universe with so much that is evil?' They have missed a greater conundrum: why would a perfect God create a universe at all?"
• "The righteous need not cower before the drumbeat of human progress. Though the song of yesterday fades into the challenge of tomorrow, God still watches and judges us. Evil lurks in the datalinks as it lurked in the streets of yesterday. But it was never the streets that were evil."

Chairman Yang:

• "Learn to overcome the crass demands of flesh and bone, for they warp the matrix through which we perceive the world. Extend your awareness outward, beyond the self of body, to embrace the self of group and the self of humanity. The goals of the group and the greater race are transcendent, and to embrace them is to achieve enlightenment."

Lady Deirdre:

• "Eternity lies ahead of us, and behind. Have you drunk your fill?"

Goodbye, then. Be safe, friend. Don't you dare go Hollow.

From Homeworld: "No one is left. Everything's gone. Kharak is burning."

"It's dangerous to go alone! Take this." - The Legend of Zelda

There's no shame in it, Raziel - revenge is motivation enough. At least it's honest. Hate me, but do it honestly.

I AM ERROR

I'm sad the Hanar can't wear sweaters

You are not prepared! - WoW

Everything is going to be okay....

The game is Omori, this sentence really hits if you know the story.

I don't remember the exact line, but in Metal Gear Rising: Revengence they say something to the effect of "Just like the WMDs and Iraq!" Referring to how the US used a lie as a false pretext for invasion. It was just so straightforward and direct. Even today that would still be crazy, but that game has been out for a while. Pretty bold to put it in.

"The Unbound will never be slaves again."

"Stand in the ashes of a trillion dead souls and ask the ghosts if honor matters. The silence is your answer."

Honourable mention: "I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow to the knee."

" " - Half-Life 2

Your dungeon is full of yoghurt

"Everything not saved will be lost"

— Nintendo Wii's quit screen

From the game Plague’s Tale Requiem, the Smuggler, Sophia, speaking to Hugo, a child, who is worried about being bit by an animal he’d like to pet. “Just say to yourself it can happen and that's all!”

Hello, my name is Dr. Glenn Pierce, and by now you may have realized that all of this has happened exactly the way it was supposed to. You see, everyone who comes to the institute does so because they feel they are no longer in control of something important to them. But, more often than not, the problem is not that the problems we face can't be solved; the problem is that we become so afraid of failure that we refuse to see our problems from a new perspective -- and so we do the same things again, and again, and again. And therein of course, we find exactly the failure we were looking for.

Your life will always be a struggle, and you will always have problems. But today, you had the chance to see things differently. Even though it meant facing obstacles that seemed impossible at first, you thought outside the box - and you overcame them. Because you saw things from every angle, you understood them for what they really were. Because you kept moving forward, no matter how far off the path you were told you were headed, or how unexpected it became...you found your way.

In a few minutes, you'll be back in the real world, and some part of you will say that none of this was real: So how could it have meant anything? But -- just like the power of perspective itself -- it will have been as real as you believed it to be. All you've got to do is... wake... up.

“If you can hear the police knock on your door, the music isn’t loud enough” -Guitar Hero

"We sense... something... something ancient... a sickly smell... a chilling wind.

My ancestors scream from within their chambers in my mind

but I cannot understand their words.

This feeling... a memory? It sickens us, and for the first time in our lives

for the first time in generations

We fear."
