    Like I said, it isn't in the official stable, yet. There is a starbound arcade machine in Hylotl villages, the code for it does exist at the moment, but the item isn't integrated. My point was, that this is even more "meta". Like a reference in a reference. Which was also a reference (in that case to Inception; however, it doesn't make sense to explain it, as you don't seem to know the film. Cobb is the protagonist).

    It is in stable. They're found in U.S.C.M. bases, not Hylotl cities.

    No, it's en entirely different machine. There are several arcade machines with different games in the game itself. The USCM base has only one (which is also the only one available in the stable). Please check the link in the Wiki, you'll see that the comment is entirely different.

    I think the strap armor set is a reference to the 5th Element.

    I went with the wizard lobsters and got to a U.S.C.M. base.

    No, because you still refer to that arcade machine, of which I didn't talk about at all. My link directs to another...

    Oh god. I misinterpreted this horribly...
    Well, sorry about that. I see what you're talking about now.

    Kind of a distasteful reference IMHO.

    I don't even get it, so you're already doing better than me.

    Richard Dawkins, The God Delusion. The author of the Kluex Delusion is named Rochard Hawkwings.

    Yeah, this one has always bothered me too, even as an agnostic. It's the primary reason i don't play as the avians - if nothing else, having an homage to such an unpleasant, classicist, racist like Dawkins leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

    TBH, that alone has kept me from liking this game and the people who make it as much as I would otherwise.

    Its not cool, the man said recently that "it is immoral to allow people with down syndrome to be born," if CF had any shame at all they would remove it.

    The Gasmask description: Are you my mummy?
    Which is the reference to the Doctor Who series.

    Extremely happy that there's a Doctor Who reference.
