It’s no secret that the writers/producers of futurama in the first season were pretty into DND. In one of the anthology of interests where Fry asks what would happen if he was never frozen Gary Gygax shows up. There was a movie episode called Bender’s Game where Fry and the others get sucked into a DND world.
Now I’ve been playing Baldur’s Gate and I’m wondering if the brains, Nibbler’s mortal enemy, are actually intillect devourers from DND and the large brain Fry talks to is an Elder Brain. What do you all think?
I am the Greetest! Now I am leaving Earth for no raisin!
Now you’re stuck in my story, full of plot holes and misspeelings!
I had assumed they were, but I'd never heard anything confirming it.
Yeah i looked around for about 3 minutes and didn’t see anything. I can’t unthink it so I’m just going to go with yes, the brains are DND related!
I'd second this.
It's too spot on to be anything else!
The big brain am winning!
Also good catch. Also I'm out of this thread for fear of bg3 spoilers lol
