Might be bit of a stretch but in the mission you have to board a ship to steal an artifact if you do the persuasion check on the first guard who stops you. You can turn around and drop down into an area with shallow water and garbage, there’s a non hostile one-eyed alien crawling around in it. A reference to the trash compactor scene in A New Hope

In the Vangaurd quest line when you are supposed to tell the robot Kaizer a code phrase, one of the optional dialogue choices is "Bah Weep Graaagnah Wheep Ni Ni Bong" which is the "Universal Greeting" from The Transformers: The Movie (1986).

Oof. The Alex Hay note gets me all messed up.

The portrait next to Niel Armstrong's is Yuri Gagarian, aka the first human in space & first person to complete an orbit of the earth. Another possible Easter Egg is if you go to the Eridani star system. If you travel to the 3rd planet in the system, there is a massive amount of space station debris/wreckage in orbit, despite there being almost no facilities on the surface. Thing is, Eridani III was in Babylon 5 and was the planet the eponymous space station orbited, so I don't think the space station parts floating around is a coincidence. Also, Eridani II also exists & is a habitable Earth-like planet, and the second planet in the Epsilon Eridani system was also a habitable, Earth-like planet in the Halo universe known as Reach... Also, not sure if it counts as an Easter Egg, per se, but if you choose the "Kid Stuff" trait, your character's parents are voiced by Nana Visitor & Tim Russ... AKA Major Kira Nerys from Star Trek Deep Space Nine & Commander Tuvok from Star Trek Voyager.

There’s a easter egg about the mantis quest you can get. Once you make your way into the layer of the “mantis”. The foundation is very similar to the bat cave. The armor/spacesuit is located in the center of the foundation in each resembles Batman’s suit/armor. I found it to be quite interesting

There's a quest you can do that involves clones and at one point you can find a cloning tube with a post-it note stating that "clone Gary_23 has been transferred to facility V-108" and is dated as year 2277

Grandma is supposedly a reference to Skyrim grandma, a real player. Also for completing the Rangers questline you get a gun called the Justifier which I imagine is a reference to Justified as it is a Marshall that gives it to you.

In The Mantis quest I immediately thought of the show Fringe, a sci-fi show about alternate universes. In Fringe's main characters travel to the alternate universe they find out that their version of Batman was replaced by a hero called the Mantis after a 1990's series "The Death of Batman". & since the Mantis in game is clearly supposed to be it's version of Batman I immediately made the connection. Although Fringe is an old show at this point so I thought it was a coincidence at first until I got further in the story & found out it's also about alternate universes! Guess I'm not the only one who loved & remembered that show xP

The old baseball decoration is absolutely a reference to Commander/Captain Benjamin Sisko's from "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" desk decoration. It even looks like it.

One small step - first mission One giant leap - final mission Thought that was pretty cool

Just like how you found lotion and tissues in a locker, I found a syringe and a bottle of pills next to each other in a locker. I also came across another movie reference while doing a mission where I had to investigate a unknown mysterious ship that couldn't be contacted with through coms. They said they tried communicating through lights and sound which they seen in a movie. That is clearly a reference to Close encounters of the 3rd kind.

I enjoyed the “space ship extended warranty” joke. Hail a specific ship and they try to sell you extended warranty.

i found two Stephen King references in the Lock on Suvarov - 1st is in the Sorting area up on top of one of the rooms is a note saying "we need bigger cuffs for prisoner JC#1932, this guy's huge" a reference to King's Green Mile JC being John Coffey and 1932 being the year the BOOK was set - 2nd is located in one of the cells - there is a poster on the wall that looks to be covering up a series of cracks along with a hammer laying on the floor, a nod to King's Shawshank Redemtion where Dufresne digs out of the cell with a rock hammer

The books on the ES6 easter egg there, if they don't fall over it will have the first two leaning and the 3rd straight up thus "Scroll VI". So yes it is a subtle nod to that. There is also a guard in the prison mission for the Crimson Fleet, where he is dead and there is a metal rod with a fork on the end in his knee. Definitely a fun one there. On the planet with Paradiso, there's an outpost in the north. In this outpost you will see a vault door with the number "101" on it. A bit to the east of that location you will see an abandoned mine with another door that has "76" on it. By both you'll find a bottle of soda with 4 bottle caps. There's another reference where there's an SSNN reporter with the same name as the Dead Rising one, wearing a similar jacket. He will mention how he used to be on a planet with an outbreak that made people eat each other....or at least that he remembers. On a desert planet, there's a giant fossilized egg near a science outpost that looks awefully similar to the Jurrasic Park's first movie science lab. As well the planet has T-Rex looking aliens too and there are Brachio looking ones that when you go close enough you'll get a tune similar to the famous JP one. Aboard the abandoned armory starship that ran into power issues and lost it's gravity functions, there is a fan with an old man's body stuck in it. At the bottom of that shaft is a chocolate bar with a golden W on it. Clearly a Wonka reference there. There was a volleyball with a face on it on Paradiso too. Pretty sure it's the same Wilson face but I'm not too familiar to say for certain, some kinda easter egg though. The "that was my sandwhich" line is from Fast and the Furious 2 I believe it was. He takes the guy's sandwhich and takes a bite out of it then insults em for it being a bad tasting sandwhich. But the guy says that exact line. Not sure if that's specifically from it's referencing, but the guy looks like the one he called "Fabio" in a way so it's likely it. But yeah those were some I found as well xD there are so so many out there. Oh, and a fun one to find is a toy of a skeleton on a horse, when you put it on a shelf next to a desk globe, the head of the skeleton catches on fire. Ghost Rider anyone xP

You forgot one movie reference, a direct reference actually, not much a easter egg but a cool one, ECS Constant captain says at some point they even tried a "show of lights" they saw in an old movie (close encounters of the third kind) while trying to comunicate with the civilazation of Porrima II not knowing they were also human

The Gary Easter egg has a 2nd part. If you go to the facility of clones there are some large glass tubes on the 2nd floor. Next to the tubes is a note that says Gary, year 2277 and that he has been moved to vault 108

The Terrormorph thing is genuinely one of my favourite curiosities in this game. And then there's the whole Dishonored 2 homage... it's far into the main quest, so I don't want to say too much, but they basically made an equivalent of A Crack In The Slab, the mission where you get the Timepiece and jump between different planes/timelines in the same building. Also, found a Prey reference (I think): a mug that says "Contains coffee. Maybe." (Funnily enough, at NASA.)

In the story mission you go to a lab that has 2 realities, one where the lab is normal and one where the lab is destroyed and full of creatures! I believe this is a reference to stranger things, the destroyed world being the upside down, also at the end of the mission you will go into a room Where a high powered laser is being shot at a wall that you have to turn off, again almost confirming that it is a reference to stranger things, you also missed the crucible it’s in the Cherbourg system (don’t know if that’s the correct spelling) where you can meet ghengis khan, Franklin’s Roosevelt and a few other famous historical figures

In the Cydona mines on Mars if you speak to the robot that is broken on the lowest floor where the miners one of his voice lines say "There's no doom in this quake..."

I think the photo beside the painting of Neil Armstrong that Ian showed might be Yuri Gargarin

Found an 'ear grub' in a jar that looks exactly like the critter Khan used in Star Trek Wrath of Khan on Chekov.

The scroll holder could just be reference to the signing the two parties did after tons of death from war. They talk about it in the vanguard/uc plot show room with the button lights

So someone at Eurogamer WAS actually playing Starfield! I was getting worried when their ""What we've been playing" feature has been leaving it out for the past 3 weeks! I always love the video teams videos, but elsewhere on the site this game has been getting some really weird feeling coverage.

There’s a Skyrim painting in the Infinity LTD building when you enter the lobby for the final big Ryujin mission. It’s a little sketchy looking but it’s def a snowy tundra scene with a dragon flying in the distance.

For halo Easter Eggs in Starfield, they added the entire planet of Reach from Halo: Reach in the game as well.

The Londinium easter egg you claim is Halo... Well I thought that was a Starship Troopers reference, in fact that whole UC induction was very on point for Starship Troopers.

Glad I'm not the only player to recognize the BLUE HARVEST easter egg.

The reliant doctor on Neon also says "Please state the nature of your medical emergency" Which is an obvious star trek reference.

There are signs in various places in the galaxy that say, "Blue Harvest" on them. That was the working name for when Star Wars: The Return of the Jedi was being filmed. :)

I wouldn’t consider it an Easter egg, but it was awesome to see them bring back an iconic voice actor from new vegas to play the bartender at the Rock in Akilla City

It might be a bit of a stretch, but the name of the planet on which New Atlantis is located is Jemison, very similar to the name of the player character, Commander Jameson, in the 1984 space exploration game Elite, a legendary game that in many ways is a direct ancestor to Starfield.

Good job on the video bro niiice 👏👏👏

in the game there's the background "long hauler" and the space trucker's outfit. If you scroll all the preset characters in the beginning you can find who seems to be Jack Burton from Big trouble in Little China.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the Sol Symphony is a double reference to both John Williams & Gustav Holst. The conductor behind The Planets

Finally, I'm like 200hrs in and have only seen a handful of bugs, exploits, but no easter eggs.

Not sure this count as an easter egg. In Futurama ep. 81 "The Duh-Vinci Code" at 9:25 to 9:41 an octopus holding up pistols like in the skill, ballistic rank 4.

Obviously the mantis quest is referencing to the bat cave but I was thinking and it might be a stretch but I think it has two meaning. The second being a reference to manta man from fallout comics book. Crime fighting mantis. Coincidence?

Great video! I also really liked your narration of the show "Planet Earth"!!! ...I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself, cheers!

I found a second "Scroll Holder" in an Eclipse Base, the one were you can get a free ship that lands in that base. In one closed up room are alot of Antiques from Earth, and there also is a Scroll Holder like the one seen in this Video. ^^ And... it is said there is a random spawning cave on earth (I couldn't find it yet) which should have a very heavy easteregg in it. But because the chances to find that special Cave are very low, you will have to search ALOT and that needs also ALOT of Time as you can think.

Surprised y'all didn't miss Cora Coe's shirt, "The Silence of Sand" and it has two suns over a desert on it. Reference to one of the most iconic scenes in Star Wars.

On Paradiso, the lost and found mission has several movie easter eggs in the 'found' section, including a sapphire necklace found at the bottom of the ocean and a ring found after a volcanic eruption.

There's a bunch of videos already, but the reference to the spam calls about your Car's Extended Warranty is a good one. Also the Sea Shanty Easter egg too.

My favorite one was the lady that calls you Carl when you first find her in a voice similar to catalina from San Andreas

In one of the main missions for Walter ya have to go to a rich collectors ship and steal one of the artifacts in one of his displays in the main room when you talk to him you'll find Sputnik on display

Well, in addition to the ones listed, there's a few more: - Space Shanties! - Epsilon III (Reach) - Earth landmarks - Star Wars! (POSTERS!?!?!) - Terminator Judgment Day (Ah crap, here we go again - Sam Coe) - Deathclaw = Terrormorph Any others I missed?

There's an aid item called Reconstim which is the same shape and design as the drugs packaging you see dotted around in Minority Report and see Tom Cruise holding and using throughout. It's pretty unique packaging that I havent seen elsewhere

I came here to point out Delvin Mallory, D-Block Secrion 01 Prisoner List. D-01-119. Nice find!

There is a starship called the Fontuna you need to find at some point. Bib Fontuna is one of Jabba The Hutt’s lackeys in Star Wars.

Also, when you do the quest on the planet with the reformed prisoners, the alien crabs look a lot like mudcrabs

The NASA cup in the Europium might be a reference to "2010: The Year We Make Contact". The moon Europa being center stage, in the movie. And Europium being found in stars.

There's a clonelab that has a plate with some info about gary on it, so there is at least one gary out there. There's also the xsomething-interloper, which is a more direct reference to alien. You'll find that one on the stranded ship in the schroedinger system, next to Kryx.

Here's another TV reference: If you travel to Reliant Medical in Neon and approach Dr Joseph Manning, he greets you with the line "Please state the nature of the medical emergency", a line famously attributed to The Doctor from Star Trek Voyager.

I picked up a weapon with a custom skin, on the skin is wrote "No Gods, No Masters", I think it was from a chest on the first mission but I can't quite remember, but it's a reference from New Vegas

There was a reference to Transformers in the quest to retrieve Kaiser, when he asks for the password there is the option to say the iconic universal greeting

That's my sandwich, aww man might be the best random line in a bethesda game. But, I'm here to say that I was present at two of the recording moments. The Easy Money shot and the Explorer one. Fun times.

I've seen references to Star Trek Voyager, Babylon 5, Transformers (1986) and Battletech. Good times.

17:26 I WAS RIGHT!!! It is the CALYPSO! WOOT!!!

I am actually shocked you missed one of the biggest ones! That the UC and Fleet reference starship troopers in two lines “everyone fights no one quits if you dont do your job I’ll kill you myself, welcome to the fleet” and “service guarantees citizenship” and the whole mantis quest is basically Batman lol

If you have “child’s play” as a perk, when you visit your parents are go into your old bedroom, there’s a bottle of lotion under the bed

In the same room as the Calypso I believe there is also a model of the USS Constitution.😊

The Sixth Circle feels like a little nod to the Sixth House of Morrowind. The bar is where the red devils hang out and the Sixth House was Dagoth Ur and his daedra

and also looks like the weapons seen in Starship troopers too and the creatures climbing over the wall looks like the Arachnids in movie over taking that base before the giant beetle attacks in the Halo ref there he does look a lot like Master Chief,

Ive found three Star Trek voice actors in game so far. If you have the perk Kid Stuff your parents are voiced by Nana Visitor (Major Kira from Star Trek Deep Space nine) and Tim Russ (Tuvok From Star Trek Voyager and Picard) and Walter Stroud is voiced by Armin Shimerman (Quark from Star Trek Deep Space Nine)

Another Halo Easter Egg is that the Planet Eridani II is a replica to Reach from the Halo Series in its planetary design.

In the uc mission where you find kaiser you get a dialog where one of the first words you can say to him are "bah weep granah weep nini bon" which is a direct reference to the transformers:the movie known as the universal greeting

A note about the Arrow to the knee icon, the arrowhead resembles the steel arrows from Skyrim too.

This one could be a stretch and may just be incidental, but there is an alien lifeform that I found that, to me, looks similar to a Zergling from Starcraft. I want to say I found them on Tirna II of the Alpha Tirna system.

Did the gun called The Regulator that looks just like the pistol from Fallout New Vegas called that gun that was a reference to the Blade Runner gun also there's a nirnroot looking plant in the game

Kid: “mom... what’s tenuous mean?” Mom: “here; watch this.....”

To add to the Office Space easter egg, .001 is the amount they were skimming.

You forgot about the Annoying Fan, a direct reference to the Adoring Fan from Oblivion. He even has some of the same lines and is voiced by the same voice actor.

I’m pretty sure the terra morph mission is about starship troopers

Here’s one for you. In the city of Neon if you head tomthe Reliant Medical room theres a chance that physician theres will say “Please state the nature of the medical emergency.” Anyone who has watch Star Trek Voyager will know that as the greeting of the ship’s EMH, emergency medical hologram, AKA The Doctor.

There's a news report I heard about a bounty hunter firing into a crowd on Cydonia and only hitting his target. He was released after police questioning. I think it's a blade runner reference.

Don't forget the Watch Case in YOUR room in the Lodge

There is a base ball display in the Frontier above your bed. That is a reference to the base ball field from Fallout 4 called Diamond City

You forgot a Halo reference. Eridani system, where Reach is said to be located in. It's in the bottom left corner on the star map.

The doctor on Neon will, from time to time, say "State the Nature of Your Medical Emergency" which is a direct quote from Voyager's emergency medical hologram

There is a poster on one of the planets called The Outpost it looks like the Flood or the Necromorph attacking a base.

Scroll/book combo did spawn for me.

Cant remember which one it was but in one military outpost I found a tape measure in a shower suggesting someone was having a little richard measuring competition 😅

I have seen the scroll at the lodge on at least one character. Never checked with others but i will now lol

Kreet stalkers had me scared for the first 20 mins of my play thru 😂

The planet Eridani II is Reach from Halo

So probably another coincidence but if you swap out Sam Coe for Sarah he calls her big boss which is a little funny if you consider he character looks a lot like the old voice actor for Snake from the Metal Gear Series.

I don't know if it's a coincidence or an actual Easter egg but there's an outpost called fracking outpost which fracking is a word they use in battlestar galactica just a penny for your thoughts

I'm pretty sure Vasco says the names, Rockatansky, Furiosa and Imperator :)

In the vanguard mission where they captured a terromorph it’s held in the same room you had to hide behind a chair in from the start of Prey 2017 I thinks there’s even a mug (Should’ve put a sticky note on it😂)

You know modders are gonna make Halo armor for this game. Also, The Colander unmarked mission is a bunch of sci-fi horrror reference rolled into one. Referencing both Alien and Dead Space and also Among Us, which was itself partly inspired by The Thing.

I think the Halo reference is even more specific. The whole atmosphere looks like the Floodgate level in Halo 3

You missed one that they double down on if you take the Kids Stuff Trait. Theirs a poster for “Silence of the Sands” and “Muzzle and Me”, in the games home decorator. And if you have the aforementioned Kid Stuff Trait. You can hear a conversation between your mom and dad. Where mom wants to watch a movie, and recommends “Silence of the Sands”, to which dad talks about how he was hoping for something less heavy. And then he suggests “Muzzle and Me” to which mom exclaims “the children movie?”. This is a clear nod to “Silence of the Lambs” and “Marley and Me”.

The lack of DOOM references so far in a Bethesda game that actually lets you go to Mars is currently a huge let-down, but I'm dead certain that they're there somewhere

the NASA mug can be found in the NASA base on Earth... and could be found MANY of them. Also, have u seen Cora's shirt? is a desert landscape with two Suns at dawn.. That remembers me a movie

3:17 I think that’s a fallout Easter egg. In fallout 3 you’re given a sweet roll with a candle in it for your birthday

on Great Expectations, on the screenshot that you said the book didn't spawn, take a second look. In the one where Great Expectations is there, there are two books laying down. On the one where you say it didn't spawn, there are three books laying down. Great Expectations may just sometimes fall over, and be one of the three books laying down.

To my eyes, Plushie GalactiCat looks like Cait Sith from Final Fantasy XIV (who is a nod to Cait Sith from FFVII).

Are the Leeches a reference to SG1 and the Goa'uld.

You missed a couple movie references. The lost and found computer on the paradiso resort has a reference to Titanic and lord of the rings

SYSTEM NAMES. There are many that reference scientists, or authors. Namely, (Robert A) Heinlein, (Carl) Sagan, (Stephen) Hawking, Hyugens, Lutyens, (Isaac) Newton, Copernicus, Rutherford, (Jules) Verne, and so on.

Also the adoring fan is the same adoring fan that is in oblivion
