    Not really a fan of it to be honest, in moderation sure but the whole damn game is a pop culture reference at this point as far as quest names are concerned at least.
    Watch me walk from my house to the summoning bell and get no pop culture reference...

    I knew the reference as soon as I saw the quest ingame. Hell, I remember seeing that movie when it was released. xD

    Doesn't change the fact that the OP linked a video that's not working.

    I guess I'm just one of those people who is a fan of it. I enjoy references to other content I like. I can understand it getting on the nerves of some people, but since it's, (as far as I know), all UI stuff that's doing the referencing, I don't see it as a big deal......

    That or they are just spouting gibberish.

    I always remember that quote because that goofy austrian death machine spoof band made a song about it

    The puns in game never get old.

    And you know what?

    That's perfectly fine, different strokes and all that.

    I just wish the developers didn't take what seems like every chance possible to shoehorn a pun or reference into the quest names. I'm more for total imersion when possible but obviously the game wasn't really designed around that in any sense. I enjoy the odd funny named quest myself or a well placed reference but I just feel they go a bit overboard with it at times. All things in moderation.

    You quoted my whole post so you might as well read the whole thing before posting a witty retort.
