History Fridge / Starfield

* The second-in-command of the Crimson Fleet, Naeva Mora, is an intensely dislikable character. She seems very brash and unsuited to such an important job in a "difficult" group - and she ''is.'' Naeva isn't a case of CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass or poor writing, she's just thoroughly incompetent. The potential undercover player isn't the first unvetted recruit she's brought in, she isn't subtle enough for complex operations and doesn't plan them well, and her toxic interactions with her subordinates likely have a lot to do with the multiple defections. If you take anything she says as bad advice, you'll go far and it explains a lot about the woeful state of the Key that this is the "first mate."
* The terrormorphs you fight in the ruins of Londinion are all scaled to your level, with one exception: the one whose birth you get to witness, courtesy of the Lazarus plant. It's fixed at level 10, most likely far below your level at this point, but it makes perfect sense. After all, it's essentially a newborn and appropriately weak.
* While certainly annoying from a gameplay standpoint (especially when TheAllSeeingAI decides it doesn't like you), Commander Ikande's animosity should you start a mission and choose violence makes sense in-story. He makes it clear that the brass thinks this whole crusade is a waste of time and resources and his request to the Vanguard was intentionally vague. After that, you are basically an off-the-books operative conducting all kinds of illegal activities, sometimes on foreign soil. Now he has to admit to his superiors that he hired someone who just went and killed a bunch of people in service to a cause that they don't believe in. Of course he's pissed.
** And for a bit of Fridge Horror, if you actually do some digging around you'll find that the brass are partially correct; the Crimson Fleet are a problem but not yet a Problem until ''you'' help find Kyrx's Legacy and ''make'' them a Problem.

* [[spoiler:One of the AlternateUniverse starts in the NewGamePlus scenario is one where you walk into the Lodge to a dying Sarah Morgan, who calls you a monster who brutally murdered Barrett. As she expires, an EvilTwin shows up behind you to gloat. If you engage in dialogue with your alter ego, one thing that gets mentioned is that this particular version of you ''tried'' being the NiceGuy for a couple of universes, and got sick of it, deciding to brutally murder all of Constellation this time around. Not unlike [[ThisLoserIsYou many bored players of Bethesda titles]] choosing to quicksave before going on a mass murder spree with zero consequences and using reload (or in this case jumping to another universe) as a ResetButton. That version of the player even sounds bored with everything to a degree, but unlike a player, isn't able to put down a controller, instead being forced to go through the Unity over and over again, [[AndIMustScream possibly forever]].]]
