All I was saying is that I found it a bit corny to have a quest about a sold soul and name the two main characters Marlowe and Vongoethe.
I love both authors, I wasn't suggesting anything to the contrary. I'm personally just not a big fan of such things - as if Goethe needs a tip-of-the-hat from a computer game! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

You mistake me. [img]smile.gif[/img] I'm not annoyed. There's something great about people having differing viewpoints over the same thing, IMO. The only way to annoy me is probably to assume what my opinions are going to be on any given issue.

I've been trying to think in the meantime of any other deliberately vague references in CRPGs games to books, etc, but I'm drawing a blank.
