    I noticed something funny when I was playing The Faction Pack DLC for Metro: Last Light.

    As some as you might know, Metro: Last Light was developed in less than glamorous condition:
    >"...4A's staff sat on folding wedding chairs, literally elbow to elbow at card tables in what looks more like a packed grade school cafeteria than a development studio."
    >"When 4A needed another dev kit, or high-end PC, or whatever, someone from 4A had to fly to the States and sneak it back to the Ukraine in a backpack lest it be "seized" at the border by thieving customs officials..."
    >"Power outages are the norm for 4A. All developers have deadlines, but I know of few that had to bring in construction generators to be able to work the weekend before final submission because an extra day meant missing shelf dates by weeks."
    >"Montreal is cold, but when it gets cold in Kiev it's different. That's because the government provides all of the heating through a central coal burning facility that pipes hot water to homes and offices. Unfortunately, it breaks down reliably a few times a year for a week at a time. Then 4A works in their parkas and struggles to keep their fingers warm in temperatures well below freezing."

    I was playing Kshatriya (the one when you play as the Polis scavenger) and was listening to the twins talking about the old station they were in. The stuff they were talking about was something like:
    >hey remember that old station?
    >yeah, and the folding chairs?
    >all the power outages?
    >remember when (some kooky Russian name) had to bring a generator from home?
    >yeah, that was awful. it was so cold!

    I had a chuckle and just wanted to share it with you guys.

    Nice little easter egg right there, i'm always too in the zone to think of these things in game. Gotta love the twins.
