Also "we can rebuild it" is the actuall quest name. Yea I thought it was Robocop up until the point I saw I think it was Robot Chicken doing a parody of it. " 6 million peso man ".

YuuAngel Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 I think there was a sub-quest in Highland Necropolis called "Cry me a river", I suppose it's a reference to the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enhance Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 The quest in Lycandi Foothils where you're tasked to steal clothes from bathing women is likely a reference to swan maiden stories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KewaG Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Just discovered this topic and I love it! I've seen most of these references but never thought to make a post or even comment on any of them beyond first recognition. This thread has inspired me to keep an eye out for more to add to this. I noticed some duplicates and suggest that the OP, if possible, edit the first post to show all the currently mentioned references. It's a lot of extra work so I understand if you don't want to do that. It's just a suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RheaXen Posted March 10, 2016 Author Share Posted March 10, 2016 I saw the Tolkien one and completely forgot to add it! Thank you! Also, the rest of the references are amazing. I wished that NCSoft would check out this post and confirm which ones they are real references. However, my BF says that Act II: Chapter 15 quest name: Once upon a time in the Cinderlands (Once upon a time in china.) a Jet Li movie is actually a reference to "Once Upon a Time in the West" which is older than that movie... but it could be a reference to all of them (The China movie is a reference to the West one)?

RheaXen Posted March 24, 2016 Author Share Posted March 24, 2016 Hey guys! Thanks for your updates. I've been busy (partially because of the leveling lol) but I've got some nice references to post whenever I can :D. I laughed hard at the Wizard of Oz references though. Other things I found, I'll post screenies whenever I have time: - Lord of the Rings references - Crazy Rabbids Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saviin Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 The Bamboo guard camp near Foshi Pyres has a quest titled: "Bamboo Guard Needs Food Badly", I do believe it's a reference to the Gauntlet arcade games. Yes, I am old enough to have played that game in movie theater arcades. ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oxygen Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 There was some daily in the level 13-16 area right after Jadestone village where you need to burn the mites nest in some dungeon (I guess dungeon name was necrotic lab or something like that)..That daily was called "This mite hurt"..This might hurt..hahaha..I dunno if you can call this a reference or a just a pun but its funny nevertheless..

Yaaaaaaarg! :P There is also a reference to European history. They actually mixed the "Iron Mask" with "Lord of the Rings". So the emperor is called the man with the iron mask, right? I quote: " According to Voltaire, the man in the iron mask was the older, illegitimate brother of Louis XIV (via Cardinal Mazarin and Anne of Austria), while according to Dumas, the mysterious prisoner was none other thanLouis XIV's twin, who was minutes older and thus the legitimate king of France. " Which means that Yumna Kahn's iron mask is a reference to this and his "return to the throne" and many side quests are references to Tolkien. Not to mention that he really looks like Aragorn when he was called Strider... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zelsadora Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 I'm surprised no one mentioned the 4 Potdogs that meant to deceive us in the same place we have to beat fake Yunsang ( I forgot the place and name of the quest) Those potdogs named: -Plu Tao (Pluto) -Snu Pi (Snoopy) -Pe budi(?) (Peabody and Sherman) -Gu Fee (Goofy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rappel Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 idk if it's a refernce or not but when I read "Tainted Lab" I thought about 'Tainted love' by Marlyn Manson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
