[@zesty2023]

I love the implication of the Quake 3 reference, that some of the troopers were having a lan-party when you game in and killed everyone lol. Also that the guy playing thought to type chat "oh shit she's here" rather then just turn his head and say it to the guys right in the same room lol

[@soulwalker7688]

Funfact, e621 is also shorthand for Monosodium Glutamate

[@alexkubrat3868]

Monosodium Glutamate kinda reminds me rice.

[@olivion]

one of the phrases Shelly says when she explodes an enemy is "you gotta keep 'em separated", which is a reference to Offspring's song "Come Out and Play" sometimes when Shelly grabs a bowling bomb she says "i've got a present for ya", which is a reference to Commandos in Command & Conquer

[@StarmaGeddon]

she also says "dance fucker dance" sometimes, could also be an Offspring reference to the song "You're Gonna Go Far Kid"

[@ironraccoon3536]

8:56 is a reference to Command & Conquer: Tiberium Dawn and Red Alert

[@Nod_Lucario]

"Silos Needed" "Insufficient Funds" "Low Power" "Our Base is Under Attack" "A-Bomb Launch Detected" Good times, good, good times.

[@ironraccoon3536]

[@Sgt_Glory]

When I read it, it was in the computer voice from C&C in my mind, uncanny lol.

[@X3MInternational]

A reference to Tiberian Sun as well. Actually it might be a ref to many of the C&C games.

[@user-rw3ri7ie7r]

11:05 "Stay a while and listen..." - Deckard Cain from Diablo

[@OcrimBob]

16:30 "We are werewolves, not swearwolfes" is a reference to the movie "What we do in the Shadows"

[@UtterSpartan]

It's pretty cool that the devs put in all that info in the final level explaining how everything works for those who are interested.

[@Kevin-jb2pv]

Agreed. They knew that fans were going to tear this game apart and figure out how it ticks, anyways, so they just put the devnotes in the game for the sake of future modders. Extra cool considering how many _absolutely batshit hacky tricks_ they had to use to get the engine to do what it does in this game. Anyone who's ever tried to make anything in BUILD can appreciate what an absolute clusterfuck nightmare this game's development must have been.

[@jcdenton6427]

Makes me sad that there is no fan made content for this game. Hope release of Aftershock will help.

[@jobelthirty1294]

The Blood Run map is actually the Quake 1 version. The Darkplace joke is a reference to Darkplaces, which is a heavily modified sourceport for Quake 1.

[@Mr_Wallet]

The Darkplace line is a quote (or near-quote) from Garth Marenghi's Darkplace, a TV show. But I wouldn't be surprised if that connection was intended.

[@localcowboycantwalkforshit9777]

6:20 e621 or MSG which is just a food chemical

[@OhNoTheFace]

[@virtminhon8978]

The E 621 got removed in the latest update, now it's M5 G.

[@SynthLizard8]

@Nasmarowany I'll never understand why anthropomorphic animals are the most outrageous thing on the internet, back in the 80's and 90's they were considered cool and fun.

[@Hysteria98]

@@SynthLizard8I believe it's because the internet gave way to validification of a lot of other fetishes (not just furries) and whereas things like fetishes and sex addiction were taboo and stigmatised before- have since only grown, as like-minded people found one another through specialised forums and simultaneously religious values that once dominated the developed world have ever diminished. This idea of free-thinking and lack of societal values means that anything goes and people's stigmas and insatiable desires are only developed further and made more degenerative. The widespread acceptance of furries has only festered in people's minds to believe that any anthropomorphic animals are inherently sexualised or otherwise possess an ulterior motive. Once you get that fucked up idea in your head, any minor reference only inhibits it.

[@capscaps04]

@@Hysteria98 Well, furries were never about a fetism but rather about antropomorphic characters. I don't have anything against people who draw furry porn but you will find people who draw porn in any fandom on the internet.

[@doclouis4236]

@@Hysteria98 Any other reference besides that particular website that shows questionable content would've been much better referencing anthro animals instead of... that. Why do you think people stigmatize furries so much? Because of the huge prominence of suggestive artwork that makes it difficult to think that furries aren't only into sexual stuff... well, you've done a poor job conveying that. And if other fandoms are like that, why is the furry fandom feel more risqué compared to other normal fandoms by comparison? Honestly, it feels really weird having a game that has references to old films and a wholesome message by one of the devs that this game was dedicated to both of his daughters, and then someone included a reference to an image website with mostly gross art in it. Now I know why they removed it, someone caught wind of this and removed it because it wasn't appropriate and felt really weird.

[@hyperx72]

@@doclouis4236 I like how it's not appropriate in a game with cursing, blood, gore, and sex referenced everywhere...

[@SinaelDOverom]

9:55 the initial genesis of "I'm free" joke is that if you make a mistake in scripting of ROTT level, you can make a moving tile to "escape" the level geometry. Turdorama is more likely to do with it being a "panorama of turd"

[@leeshkah]

once i saw the thumbnail i immediately knew he found the e621 easter egg i noticed in the first part *o boi*

its actually a harmful ingredient in some foods, but it also seems to be that imageboard thingy.

[@sparkyboi4387]

trust me, after passing so many time on the internet this is not a surprise anymore

[@capscaps04]

Funny, thanks to this video is how I found about e621.

[@ProfessorYana]

About the bit at 06:23 - E621 is also the E number for monosodium glutamate, a common flavoring additive used to give foods a "savory" or "umami" taste. Also, you missed an egg in that same room: "Sugar", "Spice", and "Product X". Anyone who's familiar with late-90s Cartoon Network shows will know what THAT'S a nod to.

[@Kindiah]

Professor Yana's Forsaken Outpost If you check out the first video he already mentioned it

[@mathewhaight]

6:00 that is actually also an Easter egg. It's referring to Garth marenghi's darkplace.

[@OfficialDJSoru]

Ah, yes, 7:40, the one that triggered a lot of non-customers

[@irishgerman98]

0:30 “MDK” was also the console cheat code used to instantly kill an enemy in the Doom games, only on sourceport engines like Zandronum and GZDoom

[@DavoXDesign]

Murder death kill. Also a phrase on demolition man

[@Andres33AU]

I love that hidden red room in 3-1, heck, you could do an entire video on just Duke Nukem references, haha. Also the message at 8:57 is a reference to the Command & Conquer games.

[@Tyrranis]

16:29 - That message is a reference to the movie "What We Do In The Shadows", a New Zealand-made comedy involving vampires and werewolves.

[@recnepsrc]

The message in the Quake 3 room is a reference to the show Garth Marenghi's Darkplace.

[@joetheman74]

"Ancient Chinese Secret" was even a reference or egg if you want to call it that back in Shadow Warrior '97. It referred to an advertisement for a product called Calgon back in the 70's and 80's. Some kind of laundry softener. Search youtube for "calgon ancient chinese secret"

[@Jerry-gb2mg]

"Dave's not here man." That phrase is also from an old cheech and Chong joke. Especially with the way she says it

[@Shadowsinger001]

6:16 While it may be referencing that particular site E-621 is also a code for Monosodium glutamate (MSG) which is used as a flavour additive in foods and has been debated as to whether or not it causes health problems. However the FDA has designated it as safe for consumption. I am inclined to believe it is referencing this and not the furry porn site.

[@ZexGamingShark]

correct, in the new update the game charged the name E-621 to MSG (sorry for my bad english)

[@Hysteria98]

I would not trust any of your government agencies as far as i could spit. Your food economy is absolutely fucked up beyond belief and it's no wonder why the US has such an obesity problem with the likes of HFCS crammed into everything.

hats off to you for putting that reference at 6:21

[@HammerHand83]

You might have missed an Easter egg in Heskel's House of Horrors. I'm pretty sure the truck you see parked just outside the gate is a reference to Dangerous Dave's truck as seen at the start of Dangerous Dave in the Haunted Mansion. www.retrogames.cz/games/421/DOS_01.gif

[@stevenbush8262]

11:34 it's also a cheech and Chong reference "Dave's not here man"

[@Dremag_Gaming]

1:08 Pretty sure that might be a ref to the old Calgon ad where someone asks about the product.

[@jermarcusm.robinsonwaller1063]

The bit at 3:25 to 3:29 with the phrase "YOU DIED" is a reference to games like the "Resident Evil" series as well as the "Dark Souls" games.

[@KingdomOfRust95]

The "Werewolves not swearwolves" message is a reference to the movie What We Do In The Shadows. Great movie.

[@Ephunker89]

Secret message at 16:28 is a reference to the movie, what we do in the night. A vampire mockumentary about vampire roomates, pretty funny!

[@kriswaylander4162]

you didnt mention, that in 11:04 "Stay a while and listen" is a Decard Cain sentence from Diablo.

[@shockedhorizon5308]

fun fact, that "welcome to my DARKPLACE!" message is a reference to a source port of quake 1, which is called darkplaces. its most famously used to run Quake Reforged and Quake 1.5

[@Bellpipe41]

It’s actually a word-for-word quote from a British TV series called Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace. The title sequence to every episode ends with the line “You’re about to enter my darkplace”. Though being inside the Q3 easter egg, I’ve no doubt it is also referencing the Darkplaces source port too. Sort of a multilayered egg.

[@adamsfusion]

12:47 Thanks for reading my comment and also correcting my mistake (I said Future Shock, but it was Skynet as you shown, oops!)

[@DanielMonteiroNit]

[@Damocles178]

OMG I literally blasted the crack in the cinema screen . Went out and thought there wasn't really anything but the patch of grass; can't believe it if I'd just bothered to explore more I could've found that Red Room from Duke Nukem 3D. When you complete the game and miss secrets like these you can't help but think " I completed Ion Fury..... ER NO I DIDN'T" :D

[@mccaf87]

I can't be certain what MDK was in reference to, but the scene from Blade Runner where Roy dies, there is a neon billboard on the roof for Japanese electronics company TDK (mostly recording and data storage media). I figured one of the letters was just changed to avoid having a corporation's true logo likeness in the game.

Late to the party, but there are also a lot of references to old 80s and 90s tech; Computer screens will show boot screens for Linux, Midnight Commander, Amiga guru meditations etc. In the office building section there is a meeting room showing assembly code on a projector screen. This is valid C64 code and when run will play the beginning of the Duke Nukem 3D theme.

[@MaximG.]

I heard (well, Civvie said that) this game has a lot more Half-Life references, besides Portal room and "Power Up" map.

[@zesty2023]

I thought Flynn was a reference to Doomguy's name in the novel Flynn Taggart.

[@MrTripleXXX]

Me too. When you have a game that is full of Doom and other easter eggs... when you see the name Flynn I just instantly think of those Doom novels from back in the day

[@TWIGBOOm]

stay a while and listen can also be a diablo2 reference at the 11:00 egg

[@mintmag8748]

What's the music that starts playing at 4:16

[@deanjenkins3077]

6:32 or just monosodium glutamate 8:56 might be a dune or C&C reference

[@LaykWr]

why not both? just cause it might mean another thing, doesn't mean it can't be a double reference

[@leglockcontrol]

6:31 also has a Powerpuff girl reference in the right (product x and sweet and spicy)

[@samueln2019]

0:04 why do i hear maku or dan (depending on which one of them is the gun) grenade launcher sound effect

[@serule1]

E621 is also the chemical compound of Monosodium Glutamate, also known as MSG.. considering its in a buffet, thats likely what they were going for.. :P BUT maybe they just wanted people to google it and stumble upon the furry site?

[@Khriztion]

"You're about to enter my DARKPLACE" is a reference to a show Garth Marenghi's Darkplace

[@djkrazykaly]

i know this is late as hell but i think in the instance of Ion Fury, while yes it can still be a furry porn joke. i believe it to be another meaning. the designation in chemistry e621 is for Monosodium Glutamate or MSG, that wonderful flavor enhancer all your favorite asian fast food places use instead of salt. also. some may say its harmful. but it occours naturally in certain foods.

[@bryinabrt]

6:00 reference to Quakes Darkplaces source port

Bonus points for making the e621 substance a white liquid I gusss

[@moedoom1051]

By order of EU Regulation 1333/2008 "E621" is the designated identification for MSG (monosodium glutamate, the common flavour enhancer) as an additive in food products. Makes a trillion times more sense than some random furry pr0n site. Especially in the given context we see in game.
