Inherit The Earth: Quest For The Orb - Pop Culture Influences

Pop Culture Influences

At least one writer has been inspired by this game's backstory to borrow an element in his work. The webcomic Anima: Age of the Robots details the myth of planet Anema's creation. It begins with:

We see the sky, the mountains and the sea And we wonder how we have come to be. In the beginning there was nothingness Then behold, the guardian cometh...

This greatly resembles the "creation myth" narrated during the game's introduction:

We see the sky, we see the land, we see the water And we wonder, Are we the only ones? Long before we came to exist, the Humans ruled the Earth. They made marvelous things, and moved whole mountains. They knew the secret of Flight, the secret of Happiness, And other secrets beyond our imagining.

Also in Anima: Age of the Robots, there is a minor character called Rif, also an orange-colored fox.

Famous quotes containing the words pop culture, pop, culture and/or influences:

    There is no comparing the brutality and cynicism of today’s pop culture with that of forty years ago: from High Noon to Robocop is a long descent.
    Charles Krauthammer (b. 1950)

    Every man has been brought up with the idea that decent women don’t pop in and out of bed; he has always been told by his mother that “nice girls don’t.” He finds, of course, when he gets older that this may be untrue—but only in a certain section of society.
    Barbara Cartland (b. 1901)

    As the end of the century approaches, all our culture is like the culture of flies at the beginning of winter. Having lost their agility, dreamy and demented, they turn slowly about the window in the first icy mists of morning. They give themselves a last wash and brush-up, their ocellated eyes roll, and they fall down the curtains.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    The first in time and the first in importance of the influences upon the mind is that of nature. Every day, the sun; and after sunset, night and her stars. Ever the winds blow; ever the grass grows.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
