I noticed something, which was missable by everyone. Only those who did read H. P. Lovecraft's myth about the Deep One would notice such name. A bookseller in Trade Quarters was selling some books about the Vodyanoi and Dagon.

Have you guys ever played Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth? This game has Dagon's statue in it.

I think that the CDProjekt dudes tried to include not only Andrej Sapkowsky's nuvela in this game, but also H. P. Lovecraft's, along with the mythical underwater monstrosities.

  • H. P. Lovecraft references:


Certain things going on in the swamp are a clear nod to the novels and short-stories of H. P. Lovecraft.
The first sentence of the description of Dagon is taken from H. P. Lovecraft.
The statue in Vaska's hut resembles Cthulhu.
The Vodyanoi resemble the Deep Ones.


It seems that they forgot that the bookseller in Trade Quarters from Act III sells the book with the name "Dagon". xD In the other game, the Deep Ones always attack the humans without mercy. :D
