Burthorpe Naming

Featured Replies

Well, right here behind me Daziel and Pascoe (British serie) is runnin' in the background. Today's episode is placed in a place called Burrthorpe.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now I wonder. Has Runescape did:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A: Taken the name from there

 

 

 

B: Made the name up and it's a complete random choice

 

 

 

or

 

 

 

C: Have both origined from the same interesting place somewhere in the real world that I don't know about?

Jagex sometimes takes ideas: usually its for things I don't care about too much, like names. Jagex may have used it, I don't see why they wouldn't, because it's a cool name IMO :D

Burthorpe is the name of a number of little villages (usually suburbs of larger centres) throughout the UK.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh Noes there is a character called "Pete" in the game! Jagex has STOLEN the name "Pete"!

Jagex loves to use other ideas. It's called an ALLUSION

No, an allusion is where you 'allude' to something... funny that eh?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For instance if they had called Camelot "Cramalot" instead, that would be an allusion.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Homage is a far more accurate description of the practise of using elements from stories, mythology, TV, movies or real life and using them in your game.

*imagines how runescape is programmed in its very own language* ah yes, originality of the most complex yet basic forms

Never use the word in its own definition...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Alluding-to refer casually or indirectly; make an allusion.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Allusion-a passing or casual reference; an incidental mention of something, either directly or by implication.
