    Nice! Dreamfall was a nice game. Never noticed the little bot there was from AO. Wonder what else one'd find if paying close attention

    There's actually a bunch of parts there from AO, the stuff in the boxes too.
    "A whole new place to run around for ages in then die suddenly without warning."

    "I know who coded pet pathing... and when I see him I say "/follow" and I start waling in to walls :P"

    The "Trolls" option is incorrect. The term trolls is not used to describe the gathering of information on the Internet.

    Yeah, I noticed that when I played through the game. Although the original The Longest Journey had a whole lot more names (and even armor) shared with Anarchy Online. But since TLJ predates AO, I guess AO is referencing TLJ there.

    I noticed the bot from AO in Dreamfall a while ago. And yeah there were a few common names, forgot which ones though
    Techno "Calamite" Witch -- 220/22 soli crat
    Hbar -- 220/28 nano NT
    Electropanic -- 170/17 opi NT
    Insanenomore - 174/17 soli engi
    Darksmile -- 220/21 nano enf
    Drifting -- 150/8 nano MP
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    got more, but don't remember their names

    In The Longest Journey (not Dreamfall), there's, for starters, Omni-Tek (and Omni-Tek guards in Omni-Pol armor), the Morningstar station and a few organizations with same names as CERTAIN legacy Clans.

    So do The Longest Journey and Dreamfall actually tie into the AO universe, or they just though it'd be cool, I wonder?

    Possibly the same universe, but separated enough to not influence each other.

    I think it's pretty much just a nod and a wink. Any AO references popping up elsewhere can probably be explained away by a space/time nano going horribly awry.

    Actually, with The Longest Journey (not Dreamfall) it's the other way around. AO came out a couple of years after TLJ, which means that a whole lotta stuff from AO are actually references to TLJ! Even Omni-Tek's and a couple of legacy Clan's names themselves!

    DUN DUN DUNN!

    Both stories were made by the same guy, same for TSW.
    "A whole new place to run around for ages in then die suddenly without warning."

    "I know who coded pet pathing... and when I see him I say "/follow" and I start waling in to walls :P"

    Yes indeed, not really news, but how often do you see the exact same names reused in different story lines in such a way? It's really nice little something for the fans of both franchises.

    I wonder what kind of TLJy or AOy stuff we'll end up finding in TSW.

    Well I think the HUGE boss that they demoed yesterday was named "The Beast" I'm not 100% sure though.
