Joe and the Lake
Hmmm, Joe
Spoiler below!
Freeman eh? Making reference to a certain someone from Half-life are we? =Þ I'm referring to the part where you find Freeman's crowbar at Lake Utaqao.

Question to maker(s) of game:
Ok, one thing I wanted to clear up. Is it Lake Utaqao
or is it Lake Utaqaq? I'm thinking it is the latter, but I was just checking because I noticed that the maps on the walls say Utaqao if you look closely. However, it says Utaqaq on the arrow signs.

I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be an easter egg. Even if you didn't like HalfLife (that's the case for me), I'm pretty sure, you can't keep yourself from thinking of GOrdon Freeman when you find a crowbar with the name "Freeman" engraved on it.

don't know halflife at all, so it didn't have any reaction on me when I saw it, but that's okay

Yes the crowbar has been the topic of discussion many times. I've yet to hear anything "official" as to who this freeman is. Wink
