=== This game contains examples of: ===
* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]]: "That bad guy just stole Princess [[MacGuffin]]! [[Save the Princess|You have to rescue her!]] Also, he murdered your uncle! [[
* [[Better Than a Bare Bulb]]: Yeah, pretty much everything in this game is [[Lampshaded]] in one way or another.
* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: {{spoiler|Your horse}} arrives just in time to save the day! Hopefully {{spoiler|you've bought that horse armor DLC pack}}!

* [[Cosmetic Award]]: Called "Awardments".
* [[Double Jump]]: Has to be bought, of course.
* [[Dude, Where's My Respect?]]: [[Defied]]. One NPC asks you to perform several mundane quests for him. You say "No."

* [[Level Grinding]]: Parodied with literal grinding--you have to grind a sword on a grindstone 10,000 times before you can use it. But you'll probably want to buy the DLC to skip that.
* [[Joker Immunity]]: [[Exaggerated]], [[Parodied]], and [[Exploited]]. The bad guy is well aware that you can't kill him (because if you did, [[Medium Awareness|they wouldn't be able to make a sequel]]) and he rubs it in your face. In fact, you can {{spoiler|shoot him in the chest}} and he survives, seemingly without a scratch.
* [[Long
* [[MacGuffin]]: [[Lampshaded]]. The princess is named "Princess [[MacGuffin]]".
* [[Memetic Mutation]]: Late in the game a large [[Visual Pun|troll]] blocks your way and has this to ask you upon failing to wound him with your sword.
