Request: Limiting the number of blatant Game of Thrones references in future?

I can readily concede on that one, but you both seem to be ignoring the second part of my post.

The fact there's a lot of GoT references in the game? Yeah, there are. There's a lot of pop culture references in the game in general though.

Game of Thrones is probably the most well known current fantasy property out there though, so of course you're going to see them sprinkled throughout the game.

Snip!

and

Snipperoo!

There are a plethora of pop culture references in the game, and when I can employ the use of IUnderstoodThatReference.gif, it makes me happy! I just agree with OP in that the Song of Ice and Fire references in particular feel a little heavy-handed. It does make sense though, because as you said, GOT is a very pervasive and popular fantasy franchise.

Personally, I don't hate it and it really isn't a big deal - it just gets to feeling a little overmuch for me.

With regard to this statement, however:

just because there ARE references doesn't mean they reference something

I got nothing.

I got nothing.

see if i say something like Danger Danger for an alarm, that dosnt mean i am going DANGER DANGER WILL ROBINSON. or making an intentional referance to that phrase

thats what i am getting at :/
