Anyone else notice this?

I personally find resorting to internet memes and pop culture references as the lowest form of humor, and I roll my eyes whenever I see it in game. I hope it doesn't become an ongoing trend

As long as it's kept some what subtle I am all for the localization team having a bit of fun and slipping in little references.

"Fly, you fool!" was used in the ARC quest.

I lol'd.

With that said I bet you don't watch many of the new movies that are set in today or cartoon movies and tv shows and such since they do a lot of pop culture references as well as internet meme stuff too....

Don't watch The Soup or Tosh 2.0

When it's done right you will never even notice it unless you know the meme/pop culture reference very well.

It's only bad when they bash you over the head with it.

Like the played out Skyrim ones. It mostly shows that they actually pay attention to trends and have some fun, but some really should never exist >.>
