Starfield has the perfect reference to Skyrim’s most iconic meme

While Starfield and Skyrim are worlds apart in many aspects, Bethesda’s cheeky humor bridges the gap. Starfield serves up not just one but two nods to Skyrim’s iconic ‘arrow in the knee’ meme, and players have been catching on while playing it via early access over the weekend.

Firstly, a chatty colonist NPC drops the line, “I used to be an explorer too. But then I… No. Nevermind. It’s a long story.” Sound familiar? It’s a sly nod to Skyrim’s guards saying, “I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow in the knee.”
