I just came across this earlier today and found it interesting. In the 'Spellbound' quest there's a part where you're asked to meet someone to buy something another character wants. When you arrive they tell you that you need to pay them upfront, after which they'll give you coordinates to the item. There's a dialogue option that has V accuse them of trying to run a con. I'm paraphrasing a bit but if you choose it V says something along the lines of "If you're fucking with me you're going to regret it. Bigly."
I was pretty surprised to see the reference, seems like a pretty lame inclusion regardless of context but it was a little jarring to see after the last couple days of headlines. I'm sure the line was written months, if not years, ago and forgotten about, but not exactly the best time to have a little "Remember the goofy things Trump used to say?" Easter egg.
It was a little jarring, surreal almost, to spend most of the day reading about the events at the Capitol, turn on a game to get a break from it all and find a reference to Trump (unless 'bigly' has another connotation? I've never seen it used in any other context besides Trump using it, or it being used by someone imitating Trump, but I guess I could be missing something). And I don't mean this in a "Get politics out of my games!" way, it's literally a reference to Trump randomly thrown into a conversation.
I was curious whether anyone else caught the reference and if you thought anything of it. I want to be clear that I don't take this CDPR supporting Trump or anything. It was just so weird, I questioned whether I'd misheard at first. Wondering if anyone else had a similar experience.
For anyone curious to see it, I'm sure it's not going to jump out as being as bizarre if you're expecting it, but the line is at about 6:32 in this video.
