There is also another 2033 reference in the intro where you just climb down into the metro. Stand by the pipes for a moment and you will hear the laughter of children. This is reference to the ghost level with Khan in 2033 as he says to listen to the pipes but not for to long.

[@dmitrikaramazov4982]

Judging by the effect it has on him ie, slurred speech, sending him into a deep sleep, the stuff the Admiral is smoking and drinking is an opiate, probably from the poppies he's cultivating on the rooftop outside his hut. It doesn't cure anything, it just makes you not feel it or care about it anymore.

You missed the conversation between Miller and Anna on the train about having Children when Anna says something like ''What would you do with a grandson teach him CQC'' to which Miller replies ''No Dual Wielding Pistols'' now if that is not an obvious Metal Gear Solid reference especially when you consider that miller used to be a GRU colonel !

There's a theory that the dark one has bieng with artyom during all the exodus, Artyom calls them angels at the end of LL, the little one is artyom guarding angel, he saves him in the end and they say the Annas he sees during the last mission in death city are alusinations made by the dark one to move him into the right direction.

Expect the next Metro game to see a return of the Dark Ones, and hopefully old characters. The writer of the books will be writing the story for the next game. Personally, I'd like to see Khan and Pavel return, Bourbon would be a nice addition but it's still not solid if he's alive or not.

Metro Exodus absolutely destroyed my GPU but still one of the greatest survival FPS i've ever played.. hell it even nailed the survival horror aspect much better than certified horror games like REVillage. and these amazing easter eggs are a testament to the love and dedication behind this game.

[@fryingpancakes8445]

One reference that non Russians might have missed is the name of the train itself, Avrora. In one conversation between the mates on the train, Idiot said something about the name Avrora being about a certain cruiser and that he will tell others about that cruiser later. This is a reference to SN Avrora, a Russian cruiser warship. She has great historical significance to the Russian people. She took part in Russo-Japanese war in Imperial Russian Navy. Then during the October Revolution, Bolsheviks seized control of the ship and fired their 152mm gun to signal the assault on the winter palace. And during WWII, she put up a valiant last stand at port during the siege of Leningrad.

[@geronimo5537]

Miller also says we must return to the "ship" in one of the end game moments. I was unsure why he said that and maybe they saw it as a land ship or to justify that Captain's on ships can actually marry people. But your detailing Pancakes makes a better reference overall.

[@zacklouder7745]

Man, you forgot about the Fallout 4 easter egg, when you save Anna, you can hear Damir asking Sam how they can identify an american base (or something like that), and then Sam says "There are these huge humanoid robot with stars and stripes and nuclear reactors up his ass" and in Fallout 4 you have Liberty Prime that sits in front of the Brotherhood base, prety much what Sam described

[@DJWeapon8]

Even earlier. Fallout 3 had Liberty Prime actually throwing larger mini nukes at Enclave.

[@cool06alt]

In Metro universe the war started in 2013. So maybe Sam got the chance of playing Fallout 3 or even New Vegas to know such reference.

[@Tyufoe96]

It's more of a fallout 3 Easter egg honestly

[@freakanature2734]

Theres another Dark One you missed The Dead City has one in the boat section after you get through the leech nest. When your paddling down the tunnel exposed to the surface with the light at the end and supernatural starts happening, when you hear a train and right before you black out you can spot the Little Dark One up top of the tunnel..

About that bottle in the 1991s archives: each slot is a month, then the bottle in august 1991 refers to the Ukrainian independence. You get the "Decommunization" achievement for destroying Lenin statue.

[@shurik8550]

Rogelio Plata, I think it refers to the putsch in (back then) Russian SFSR, when a group of KGBsts and party members tried to overthrow Gorbatschow’s regime and take control of the USSR. After this putsch, Yeltsin got recognition among the people and that helped him to become a president. And as already stated in the video, Yeltsin is mostly associated with his alcoholism problem by Russians. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1991_Soviet_coup_d'%C3%A9tat_attempt?wprov=sfti1 Ukraine got its independence in August that year, after this putsch.

I always like your vid ^_^ because life is just like a easter egg

[@levigriffin4314]

I love that the dark ones follow you in the shadows, like after you saved them they are your guardian angel following you around.

[@VadBlackwood]

there's also The Diamond Arm reference on Hlebnikov's map, "We’d rather have you come to us" on Kolyma :)

[@ajvarninja415]

12:10 i think that blue car is a reference to Chernobyl, the 2 brothers actually came back and took pictures with the vehicle more than 3 decades after their evacuation

In Novosibirsk, a blind gorilla attacked Artem on the roof (when Artem climbed the stairs). In the Russian dubbing, the gorilla says (after about 2 minutes of searching for Artem): Dark One is here.

[@Soyouthinkyoucanact420]

Love this guy

[@peterpeterson4800]

The way the bridge collapses at 7:00 is also pretty similiar to such scenes in the half life series.

[@azyjmexcuseokstop924]

also, when the boys clean their weapons in the train after the desert, one of them says : "I hate sand. It's rough, (dunno the line) and it gets everywhere"

7:20. I was wondering, when I found the body. It is the design of Miller. Both feet are prosthesis, and the gear looks like the one, when the group arrived at Jamantau .

[@JO-db7cm]

The Hares on the raft could also be a reference to the Movie/Book Watership Down

[@rgrtrojan2039]

There’s another two stalker references 1: kirrell the little kid mentions stalkers who come to trade things of interest to his father at the end of the game. 2: not long after meeting kirrell, on your way past his little home station you pass through a series of checkpoints that are littered with empty stations and dead bodies. Continue onwards and head downstairs to the deserted gun merchants and you can find boxes with items in them that closely resemble or are a replica of the gear that stalkers wore in the S.t.a.l.k.e.r series. ( gas mask, green suit and what appears to be a breathing tank )

[@fatihburakkaragul4321]

There was also a Spiderman reference, ''Go get them tiger''. Anna says it to Artyom when you decide to leave after listening her completely in Aurora :).

[@sirkillalout]

You missed the star wars reference.

[@YaBoiFetz]

The line with the sand right?

[@DraconisV2]

Yeah the one Tokarev says after leaving Caspian because of all the sand there.

[@sirkillalout]

@@YaBoiFetz yep

[@YaBoiFetz]

Lol that's really an eater egg? Cool. I just heard the line and star wars in mind immediately 👌😎

[@commissarsheev4132]

I was about to comment the sane thing

[@emrebayram1778]

hey cool video bro

[@armansaadati4718]

in Autumn part right before the Dead City level begins when you're on the train, if you go to the place where Sam is on guard duty, you will notice a train station ahead. There's a man standing in that train station.. he looks exactly like one of the workers in Caspian level... i once searched on the net for it's meaning and if anyone has noticed that, sadly to no avail.

[@mirumotsuyasuke8327]

Some pretty weird stuff. Great attention to detail whoever you are. I love the game.

[@juanchooo24]

I thought I was going to see the dark one at the top of the building but when I got there there was a surprise waiting for me lol

[@TecmoBowlPlayer]

@@fuckinantipope5511 i am a new fan from you ^^

[@vstevanovic187]

I believe that the autumn part when you get into the metro is a reference to bad ending of Last Light. I haven't read the books (I plan to) but it's way too similar

[@morningglory986]

Good game, I finished him yesterday (i got the bad ending 😢)

[@CallOfFuzzy]

It’s course, rough, and it gets everywhere

Good to see the dark ones are in the game,
