separate dialogue?[edit]

Is there a confirmed source that there is a separate dialogue? I just ran through this, and my toon only spoke for the first one I found; and each dead soldier had the exact same interaction text box. I'm not sure if this is due to me having gone through them very quickly, but I had no recording of multiple statements (as nothing was said). The only one I do have is the dude crushed by the tree. -Darqam (talk) 15:59, 7 March 2016 (UTC)

On a related note, I've uploaded an image for each pact soldier. Instead of linking them all just take a look here (red link but it actually works) to see them all. I can't find a pretty way to implement them, so they will just sit there for now. -Darqam (talk) 17:59, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
I haven't been to the spirit vale, do these objects have nameplates, or are their nameplates blank (i.e. if you hold down the show objects key nothing shows up). If they have nameplates, I don't know how helpful the images will be. Otherwise I think a gallery would be good (under the heading "Gallery", maybe something like this?
I'd probably have a separate interaction text section with the following in it:

Prior to collecting a soldier's tags:
:Another casualty of war. A Pact soldier tag lies on the ground nearby.
:{{dialogue icon|more}} ''Collect Soldier tag.''

Subsequent interactions after you have collected a soldier's tags:
:I've already collected this soldier's tags. The Pact will see that proper rites are performed.
:{{dialogue icon|end}} ''Leave.''
off-topic: Red links will appear in wanted pages I expect, so I'm replacing that with fullurl: -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 19:42, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
Those soldiers don't have any nameplates (no yellow text while holding ctrl for example); which is why I opted for a no UI screenshot. I have nothing against these images not being used, but I figured I'd put them up here in case they might be useful. I think the gallery idea is nice. I'll try putting that in at the bottom. And I'll try and sort out this business with the text/dialogue, but I really don't think there is any dialogue that happens... (would be happy to be proven wrong though). -Darqam (talk) 20:02, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
There is ambient dialogue where your character speculates as to what happened to the corpse (also race specific?). I'm not sure if it always plays, and I'm not sure if there's different collect tag dialogue. This dialogue is separate from what you'd encounter just running through the wing so I'd prefer documenting it here. Seylan (talk) 01:08, 8 March 2016 (UTC)

I just completed this achievement, having only collected one tag previously. Most of the interactions have no dialogue. --Hesione (talk) 11:51, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
