That dark souls Easter egg is even cooler bc it references a specific boss battle from dark souls 3 called “the abyss watchers”, there’s 3 of them and when you walk into the arena they spawn out of the ground in that exact same way. Such a cool reference to one of the best boss fights in souls games imo

The castles in the sand and enter sandman feels like it is a reference to the songs of the same name. Castles in the Sand by Thunder and Enter Sandman by Metalica.

The name of the achievement in the goat simulator easter egg: "sandcastles in the sand" could be a reference to the episode "Sandcastles in the Sand" of the sitcom How I Met Your Mother and it's infamous Robin Sparcklez song with the same name

I feel like the first easter egg was a two for the price of one considering there was a super mario easter egg to the left as you approached the vault door

Ok that is actually really sick that you can find the baby and the man him self in cyberpunk... Awesome stuff

Hey Cap, long time viewer here. I just wanted to say thanks for all the fun videos, but more importantly. Thanks for introducing me to some games that I never would have found without your videos. Cheers brother!

The de_dust2 is not actually a reference to cs:go, but instead classic cs 1.6, as it even has the same crate textures

I did that goat simulator 3 sandcastle quest last night, the game is just filled with references and Easter eggs to just about everything I love it, even the descriptions of the items are sometimes references, it’s just a really fun game and keep up the amazing work Cap!!!

In the Simpsons RoadRage for the Ps2 if you play the game on certain holidays you can play as a special playable character ex. Today (Thanksgiving) you can play as Marge in a Canynaro with turkey(blue hat) with a bib that says help! Also on the side of the SUV it says Happy Thanksgiving!
Was playing it today it was a nice surprise, I miss the days when games had this feature and not had to have “updates” for a holiday event.

I just finished goat simulator. The amount of game references and movie references are insane. One of my fav is on the left side of the map there is an area called "Quiet Hill" inside is a P.T remake. In the lava part of the mountain, there is a lord of the rings reference with an Eye of Sauran pickup and you can enter an area where you can throw the ring, another with a major spoiler to the games ending is a Super Mario reference but you need to beat the gama first. There is wayyy more but thats for you to find.

In Mortal Kombat X, if you do Jason vs Jason one of them will have Roy's mask from Friday 5.

"Sandcastles in the sand" might also be a reference to the song with the same name from the show "How I Met Your Mother".

1:53 i heard the click than got an ad, pretty good timing

[spiffychewie]

I'm pretty sure that the tower at the beginning of goat sim 3 is a reference to assassins creed. Hence the "synchronize".

A hidden game detail i found is on Apex Legends, if you finish a Bangalore as NewCastle instead of doing a normal finisher you will just laugh and wave your finger at her. It is because they are actually brother and sister

I really felt the emotion at 10:58
Real gut wrenching stuff

Pretty sure the biggest reason cyberpunk got a massive rise in player counts is because of the edgerunners series.
