Agreed. I think it can be fine to write in the language that comes naturally to you, with the references that are part of your native vocabulary, but it does confuse people sometimes. I usually put a wikipedia link to references that I don’t expect to be common knowledge but don’t want to stop to explain. (Videogames, or games generally, usually aren’t common knowledge; neither are technical or historical or literary references.)
