I once tried to find humorous responses to actions in this game. In the castle of Camelot, in the royal bedroom, typing FUCK GUINEWERE results in her saying something like it's not the proper time yet, you have to wait until the quest is over. But what's funnier, in Merlin's lab, typing FUCK MERLIN results in him saying "My darling boy, I didn't know you cared". — JIP | Talk 11:37, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

Yea, try it to the Treasurer too! Pictureuploader 13:39, 19 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Symbols

In the game, the labarum which is a symbol of Christ, is presented as a symbol of Mithras. I thought of pointing this out as a historical mistake but I decided to ask first if anyone could know if that symbol has been connected with Mithras in some points of history.

I am by no means an authority, but I remember seeing the labarum connected with Mithras elsewhere. Of course, it could just have easily been a pen and paper RPG book as a history or mythology text. MasterGrazzt 05:54, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Camelot and The Da Vinci Code

Does anyone want to take a stab at writing a paragraph noting the similar subject matter to The Da Vinci Code. I've already added a link under "see also". I'm curious if Kristy Marx read The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail, or where the idea came from to use the goddesses as part of the storyline. -- 12.116.162.162 19:57, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

That would be original research but you can ask her, since she is a Wikipedian Pictureuploader 21:51, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Pffft. Before linking this game to the Da Vinci code people should really see the ending, where mithras and all the pagan gods are wiped away forever by the power of Christ and the Holy Grail (which is a cup in the game, seriously guys, it is a cup that you find under a pillar after killing a sarasen or something). You know what? I'm going to remove the "See Also" section because it only links to the Da Vinci Code which has absolutely nothing in common with this game.

While CoC has nothing to do with the 'Code', I would never consider it a 'Christian' game. It just points out the historical facts, and I guess it presents them with rather a nostalgic feeling ('The poor deities are gone') and presents them as actual entities, while mainstream christian view considers such deities mere fantasies Pictureuploader 06:32, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
