Sharp eye good!mjharper said:Fabulous thread I noticed a few of these things on my first playthrough (only just installed Windows on my Mac).One thing I noticed which didn't seem to be mentioned (did a search as well, apologies if too obvious) is that the Echinops and other related plants seem to resemble Triffids from John Wyndham's book...
As an ardent boxing fan, I cannot believe I missed this one. Brilliant.Khil said:Every Polish player will loose bladder control when seeing the name of the fist fight champion in act III. Andrew Gablodda, who talks about "magic hit" that he has taken during one fight, when his career fell, and he has to stay incognito covered in shame . It is based on Andrew Golota, polish boxer, who got knockouted by Mike Tyson by just 53 seconds by one strong hit few years back.
Haha! never noticed that one.Randoom said:After knocking down an apponent in boxing minigame Geralt does the same moves as Brad Pit in Snatch
I have the Enhanced Edition, and cannot spot that problem. Probably it was corrected.MadBohemian said:I just noticed the soaring birds in act II so far fly upside down when going away from Geralt and right side up coming to him.
Wow!

I'm not quite so sure about this one, but it seems sensible: Azar Javed's henchman, the "Professor" ("Magister" in the original Polish), is an Easter egg of the 14th-c. pirate Magister Wigbold.The only outstanding medieval European criminal I know of who went by the nickname "Magister" was the supposedly Oxford-educated pirate Wigbold ("Magister Wigbold", "Meister der sieben Künste"), who sailed with the legendary Störtebeker. Unfortunately for the Easter egg, Magister Wigbold was known for preferring negotiation to slaughtersecondchildren said:Okay, this to me definitly signed the fact that CDP screenplayers are genius O_Osecondchildren said:Here's another that seems it has been sitting around in the open for so long; has anybody else noticed?Azar Javed = "Eternal Fire" in Farsi (Azar = fire, Javed = eternal, undying; both are given names in Farsi and Urdu).

I had trouble hating DeWett properly, once I saw who he looked like. I wish they'd used Mr. Gop's face for a more sympathetic character, like maybe Vincent.Biggus said:Just now realized that count De Vett modeled after ser Tomasz Gop.I am so slow
