And, in the same vein, I'll re-suggest my favorite suggestion... having a random piece of gear called "Shield of the Marauder." With the inscription "he died trying to save us all."


First time I saw this, and I agree. Probably one of the best possible references.

I'm not a fan of references (too many of them in games these days), but THIS one is just brillant.

I'm The Inquisitor, and this is my favourite reference in the BSN.

Getting away from the obvious - I wouldn't mind a Lady of the Lake reference somehow. Maybe you're walking past a lake and notice a glowing sword under the water with the name "Sword of the King" or something.
 

or you get a crazy lady to throw a scimatar at you.

The only one I'm really hoping to find (and I'm sure it'll be in there) is one regarding the Monty Python Spanish Inquisition sketch.

And one that would make my inner geek squeal with delight, though it obviously will never happen:

In talking to a random NPC, they for whatever reason say "...I have a magic bow."
Varric(or anyone): "Where'd you purchase that?"

If you actually get that reference, you are awesome. :)

Why do people do this?
If you get the reference..
I don't,:blink: and I don't get why getting an obscure refrence wouuld make me "awesome"

"Chaos isn't a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some, are given a chance to climb. They refuse, they cling to the realm or the Maker or love. Illusions. Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is."

A dead space reference where in a random cave you fight a wave of necromorphs. "What in the void were those things, demons?" Asks one of your party members... Qunari inquisitor says "don't dwell on what they are, just kill them!"

Something involving Wayne's World.

Maybe Cassandra was once part of a band called Crucial Chant. :D

The first time the player sees Cassandra.

What would I want? An obscure reference to that niche thing I like.

Something like: Sword of the Adjunct. Plus damage to mages, minus magic damage recieved to user. Drops from a dragon.

What do I expect? Not that.

Because it's a way of saying "this is an obscure reference, and I'd like someone to validate the fact that I'm not the only one who watches this obscure show"  without sounding so desperate.  :lol:

Wow, that takes me back to an old Playstation game called Medievil. Chicken drumstick was actually a weapon there. It turned enemies into roast chicken :D I would love to see that in DA:I!

I definitely don't like pop culture references in games!! One of my least favorite lines in DA is Isabela saying, "I like big boats; I cannot lie." That was awful! (to me)

I don't mind self-referential, like ME references in BW games, though Alistair saying dramatically in DA2, "Swooping..... is bad." *WINK WINK* Ugh... that was also awful lol (again, to me; I'm sure some people love it)


Agreed. I don't think I've ever come across any outside reference that wasn't cringe-worthy. I'd much rather there weren't any.

So much this.


Twin redheads working at a farm:
Man: So are you just going to keep sitting there?
Woman: As compared to what? Standing?
Man: So you expect me to do all the work?
Woman: I do expect you to do all the work.
Man: And why is that?
Woman: Moving here was your idea.
Man: My idea?
Woman: I made it very clear I was not privvy to it.
Man: The Darkspawn or the farming?
Woman: No. Though I imagine you are getting plenty of it.
Man: Plenty of what?
Woman: Farming. 
Man: Can't we get back to work?
Woman: I suggest you do, else we will never get done.
Man: No, I mean I'd greatly appreciate it if you would assist.
Woman: Perhaps you should ask this eavesdropper here.
Man: I could, but it would be pointless.
Woman: Why?
Man: Because they don't farm.
Woman: Ah, I see what you mean.

An Atomic Toasted Greatsword.

Image IPB

Long ago, in ages far before the tales of Wardens and Inquisitors, a mage of tevinter considered wild and reckless by most came upon a renowned blacksmith and offered a proposition: After removing a small piece of his soul and infusing it in the hilt of toastification(seen above), he sought to create a weapon beyond imagination.

"The Art of Toastification is a forbidden art, lad. Ye not know what ye ask.", said the blacksmith.
"Make it so. Name your price, and it will be done.", said the mage.

The blacksmith hesitated, scratched his head in dismay, and said...
"There's only one anvil that could handle such a task, and the road to reach it is deep... you seek the Anvil of the Void - and it may very well send you there, too."

So they traveled for what must've been days within the depths of charred rock, finally reaching the fabled Anvil of the Void.

With a dramatic lift, he raised the hammer used once as an apprentice so many years ago. The blacksmith looked ever-so-slightly to the mage, and spoke:

Let There Be Toast.

Records of the unnamed above after that point are vague at best, and are now simply one of history's mysteries.
