So I happened to notice something today as I was finishing up some Flashpoints in another F2P game and realized It felt awfully familiar.....
 
Long story short, the Flashpoint for the SoR storyline on Manaan is almost assuredly inspired (aesthetically) on Wildstar. The only thing off is the color, but the doubled round doors, hallways, the "augmentation" being done on organisms (heck even the greenish tubes resembling our favorite omni plasm on said augmented folks). I actually felt like I was walking through an Exolab... It was 
a refreshing feeling (because that other game is boring, and I'm only stuck playing it till I can get back to my fancy pants PC in the states which doesn't give me memory errors out the wazoo...)
 
Anyway, I was curious if others were familiar with that FP and thought they also noticed some Eldan inspiration there? They say mimicry is the highest form of flattery, so I'd say GJ Carbine, looks like you might have some fans over at another studio :D
 
Or if folks have found other media that reminds them of the W* / Eldan aesthetic, and vice versa (what influences do you see in W*).
 
What hit me hardest when I first started playing W* was how much it felt like I was in the amazing love-child of Rachet and Clank and Jak and Daxter. The Eldan felt very much like the precursors (as does primal energy remind me of Eco), and the humor and sci-fi elements instantly hit me with the ratchet and clank nostalgia wrench...
