References
- In the 2000 Playstation JRPG The Legend of Dragoon, one of the first RPGs to include voice acting, the character Lavitz Slambert shouts "Harpoon!" when utilizing a special ability of the same name during combat. It is used (and therefore the audio is repeated) extremely often, leading it to become a meme within the RPG community.
