Possible Fallout 2 Easter Egg Discovered in The Witcher 3

gamerant.com:

Way back in 1998, Fallout 2 hit shelves to critical praise and commercial success. Unfortunately, there were things going on behind the scenes with its publisher, Interplay Studios. By the time Fallout 2 was released, the company was in dire straits financially. As a result, the Interplay sold the rights to the Fallout franchise to Bethesda in the 2000s, which went on to make their own series of games in the franchise.

In the second game, the player encounters a character named Sulik who is a possible companion. His backstory was that he was from a village located by the Great Salt Water and was searching for his sister, Kurisu. Unfortunately, the quest to find his sister wasn't included in the game due to time and budget constraints and would have been expanded on in the original version ofFallout 3. Now it appears that this storyline might have been finished in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt as a hidden detail in the Skellige Islands.

In a recent post, Reddit user Spaced-Cowboy pointed out a similarity between Sulik's storyline in Fallout 2 and another story inThe Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. In the game, Geralt encounters an unnamed NPC who mentions he is looking for his sister. Later on the player encounters a character named Kurisu in the Skellige Islands. She mentions that she lived with her family until pirates attacked, kidnapping her and several others with plans to sell them off as slaves. Eventually, she was able to escape the pirates, finding shelter at a local temple before finding passage home.

None of this of course is exactly proof. However, it is a bit of an odd coincidence that the characters would share the same name and such a similar backstory. In addition,
