re: videogame take 

@theoutrider It was really immersive in the alt-history Venice fantasy book me & K were reading together to have to stop every couple of pages and go

"What? Index.. Index.. Index.. Ah. It's a sort of end-table, apparently."

because of the authors randomly interspersing old Italian words for common/irrelevant items in an English book.

I think the most egrarious/odd example of doing this I've heard about is that in "Borgia: Faith & Fear", Leonardi Da Vinci is the only character to speak Italian, and does so for all his lines while everyone around him speaks English.
