Anyone have a transcript of what Agrippa says? - atmosphere - 10-02-2010

When you first encounter Agrippa, he spills his guts about a lot of things, specifically some interesting back story items. I caught a lot of it, but missed a few things. Does anyone have a transcript of his discussion?

You can find them in language files.

Excellent, thank you!

Odd thing there is that to begin with, when he's telling you to "pull ze svitch" (which is actually a lever you need to turn), he's speaking "from himself", even though he has no mouth...
Then after you turn the lever, its the machine with the lever that is speaking...
Whats going on there? (If it's revealed later, just tell me this, as I haven't got much further than meeting him)

It's probably a reference to The Whisperer in Darkness by HP Lovecraft (q.v.)

It's basically some fancy science, I guess. It's never explained, but I presume it's some sort of telepathic machine that reads both your and his mind and transmits thoughts to one another.

Was it? Huh. I didn't really pay much attention to where the voice was coming from, I just assumed he was using telepathy and his Awesome Mystery Powers to read your mind.
