Borderlands 2 / DF Easter Egg.
« on: June 22, 2014, 12:23:24 pm »

I may be late to the party but a quick search didn't turn up anything about this. I've not played Borderlands 2 in a while so I got the Tiny Tina Assault on Dragon Fortress download to get back into it. Part of the story arc sends you through some mines where you end up fighting a lot of dwarves. One of the dying dwarves made me laugh by saying  'Loosing is fun.'

Well I mean it is, he's not lying.

Glad do see some big-ticket games paying homage to DF :]

Tiny Tina's Assault on dragon keep is just reference city. They have an attack the darkness achievement and a sidequest where you can punch joffrey.

Dungeons of Dredmor has the 'plump helmet' which is a big mushroom shaped hat.

He does strike me as very dwarfy. You know. Short. Angry. Violent. Loud. Death wish.

If you adventure mode, he even does that wielding-too-many-weapons thing. :D
