That IS funny. We are a bit brigandish sometimes.

There's two circumstances under which the Rickroll will happen.

1) Completely at random (and extremely rarely).
2) As karmic payback for having used the "over 9000!" meme in one of your bug reports.

Talking to Simba is funny.

Nice portrait of the hero!

I found a pizza box at the end of the alley in the NW. There is also a suspicious door there. Is there something more I can do with this? Or is it indeed just an easter egg?

That door is where the EOF meetings take place. Unless you're a fighter, you'll never get invited in there though.

And since Rick Astley is so popular on the internet, he would only visit us once every 75 times we called on him.

I just found King Graham in the desert but he had a shield for some reason.

Lol - I just saw a sharkie from KQ2VGA+ cross my path in the alleys
And the only place he appears is at the intersection of Sharki Darb, in case you didn't notice. Seemed appropriate. :D
I just got Rick Rolled D:
RickRoll was actually in the game long before everyone started joking about the 6th correspondence course update being a Rickroll in the general forum. So, just in case anyone's wondering it, no it wasn't added as a reference to that. We had to do some major tongue biting there!

LOL you guys put fans in the game? I can't wait to explore some more tonight, I had only a few hours yesterday.

After 10 minutes playing, I encountered the PoP from II going from wall to wall. I see here that it was already found (of course).

Saw that too, didn't know who it was and didn't have time to click look.

There are some extra items you can buy from some of the vendors, not sure what they're for yet (they have a red question mark icon):
* Dried flower art
* Carpet
* Decorative pot
* Bumper sticker
* Brass jug
* Weaving
* Potted plant

I also found a "signed quest game box" (QfG) or something, but now I can't find it :|
Ive found all these things too. You can put them around your room and make it look nicer. I havent found there to be a purpose for this yet, although maybe im still missing a piece or two and it will all come together then. Some things get delivered to the Inn, other things you carry, and can then just place in your room. ive attached a screen shot for those wondering what on earth I am talking about.

oh, You can also buy boots from the leather merchant. They protect you when youre fighting Ghouls, as the acid they spray out cant hurt you.

There's no true purpose. The reason you can buy additional stuff is simple...after getting arrested in Raseir, the guards take all your money, so it never gets carried over to QFG3. That means you might as well waste additional money on nice stuff instead of carrying it around. It also shows that many Katta are artists as well as merchants. It's just a fun little extra.

If you're a magic user, you missed two. Otherwise, you missed one.

(p.s Useless tidbit: The original idea was from a console RPG called Terranigma where you could eventually buy and decorate your own house)

You can kind of do it in Morrowind. I think its a great idea, and I love being able to personalise things a bit.

Im a thief, so just the one im looking out for...

I initially thought the bumper sticker would stick to your Saurus and it would stop people from attacking you on it.

Nope. That was just some witty salesman banter from Sloree and Scoree. Their arguments when you bid too low for their special items are pretty funny.

you can also buy a brass jar which can go on top of the cupboard...

no idea where you got that big brass jug on the bedstead, or what the magic user thing is.

I notice that they are randomised in terms of images and colours

You could also buy a trashcan from Alichica, but I hadn't tried it yet.

Havn't been offered yet in the remake.

You can't buy a duck in the remake either. It's a Marx joke, nothing more.

Ah, Terranigma. The title PAL gamers love to show off to Americans. Japan/Europe release only. Jerks. :p

Was that the only thing im missing?
