But if you squint hard enough, you can make out three words on the back of the book: "Nazely Do Anya"

BethesdaPamietnik? That's right, Anya is writing The Notebook.

Despite sounding like how this alternate Nazi history version of Ned Flanders would say hello, "nazely do" translates to "property of." So, the cover says "Diary, property of Anya." And what's easier to believe: That stone-cold Nazi killer Anya has always been a stone-cold Nazi killer, or that she put her name all over a teenage serial killer's diary and lived to tell the tale?

Except that that didn't happen. As it turns out, Barb didn't die. In fact, she was never even there. The entire scene was all in Batman's head. Many hours later in the game, it's revealed Barbara is perfectly fine. Well, she's being held at gunpoint by Scarecrow and gets thrown off a rooftop, but that's an average Tuesday for anyone who's friends with Bats. The real tragedy is that Batman could've spared himself a lot of grieving if he had been a better detective. Here's why:

Warner Bros EntertainmentAlso note how Joker is swinging his legs back and forth to mock a paralyzed woman. Bruce's psyche is a dick to Barbara.

See how Joker suggestively slides the gun towards Barbara? How can he do that with a physical object, seeing as he's a figment of Batman's imagination? The only logical explanation is that the gun and Barbara (who you can see and pick up the gun) are both as made up as the teleporting purple killer clown in the corner. Of course, it's hard to pay attention to details when we're scared we're about to see a fan-favorite character take her own life.

So how did he find out about your exploits? Firsthand, it turns out, as Deacon has been spying on you throughout the game. Deacon's job in the Railroad is to use his uncanny talent for disguises to pose as other wastelands inhabitants. When you helped a journalist get into the city, does that bald guy look familiar? That's Deacon:

And in a city where the ghoul mayor is rallying the masses against the Institute, who's this handsome bald drifter in the crowd?

BethesdaPlaying the role of Drifter, the drifter.

And the bald gentleman hooked up to one of the memory machines as you go into the mind of your spouse's killer? Also Deacon. His machine isn't even turned on, flashing a "Please Stand By" screen if you check it out.

BethesdaUnless the memory he's reliving IS the time he watched a broken broadcast.

Basically, if you ever spot a nondescript bald man chilling in the background in a Fallout game going forward, odds are it's Deacon keeping tabs on you. One day he'll find a pre-war cache of decent wigs and become the greatest spy to ever live.

The game starts with the last Finch scion, Edith, returning to the old family home to investigate this so-called curse. As the player progresses, a slight fear starts to creep up that this rickety, derelict house is where Edith will meet her own premature death. But then the game reveals its twist: Edith is 22 weeks pregnant, and she's there to figure out if she has doomed her future child to an early grave. Of course, the player could've known this all along, just by looking down.

The game is told in a first-person perspective, and you are able to make Edith look around at whatever you choose. One such option is to look directly down at her feet -- something you'd probably never do unless you're one of those people. But if you do, you'll be unable to see Edith's feet, as her belly is in the way.

Annapurna Interactive

Annapurna InteractiveAt least one person has noclipped through to see if there's a fetus in there.

That belly isn't just there to show that Edith is the first ever video game protagonist with more than 5 percent body fat; it's a baby bump. It's a clever comment on how in first-person games, we tend to overlook the character's body almost like we do our own noses.

But despite being so clever, What Remains Of Edith Finch is by no means the first game that uses a woman's POV to reveal something about her. That honor goes to Jurassic Park Trespasser, which also paid special attention to its female character's oversized curves.

Electronic ArtsGaming's come a long way.

What an unexpected turn of events! Except, of course, for those of us with a keen eye for art.

Electronic ArtsAh, of course, Leonardo DiCaprio's classic painting, The Count Of Monte Cristo.

That cozy scene of the Inquisitor surrounded by his most trusted allies shows up in the final moments of the game's first gameplay trailer. Everyone's here: scary scar lady, dwarven poet, and sexy Minotaur man. The image is also very reminiscent of one of the greatest "let's all hang out on the same side of the table" artworks, Leonardo Da Vinci's The Last Supper:

Leonardo da VinciThe only difference from the Bioware one is that in this fantasy, they don't believe in minotaurs or homosexuals.

In Leo's composition, the second person to the left of Jesus is Judas Iscariot, noted betrayer and silver enthusiast, here seen being rudely shoved aside by Peter trying to get the waiter's attention.

Leonardo da Vinci"God, get the fuck out of the way, Judas."
"More like Judas Iscidiot, amirite?"
"Ha! Good one, Jesus."

And wouldn't you know it? In the trailer shot, it's Solas' shiny bald head in the exact same spot to the Inquisitor's left.

Electronic ArtsAnd if you analyze the shape that the other people's arms make with each other under a black light, you will discover that you're wasting your time.

Pretty subtle, huh? Of course, there's also a mission in which a demon straight up tells you Solas is a betrayer, only he does it in High Elvish:

So the only people who possibly could've guessed this were hardcore gamers who also happened to be fine arts majors or Tolkien geeks? Clearly, Bioware wanted this clue found as quickly as nerdily as possible.

It's just kinda sad that none of these games are on the Nintendo Switch.
