LOTR reference in the Witcher 2

Dear LOTR fans,
I hope there is someone here who played the Witcher trilogy.
I've found a Lord of the Rings reference in Vergen when Saskia has been poisoned and Philippa, Iorveth and Geralt talk. Philippa mentions the twenty rings from the LOTR. The reaction from Iorveth and Geralt seemed a little bit mockery by their tones. (They translated well, I've checked it.)
'Iorveth: One to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them...
Geralt: Right, and then I'll have to run bare-footed to the top of a volcano...'
What do you think about it? How would Frodo react?
Videos about the reference:

...but I never got around to #2 or 3. Good to hear Geralt is still his old snarky self.
We are the fighting Uruk-Hai! We slew the great warrior! Well, yeah, first he killed a bunch of us and another whole lot of Mauhúr's lads, and we had to shoot enough arrows into him to drop a Mûmak. But we got him!

In Life is Strange, the main character Max makes a few references to Lord of the Rings. At one point referring to a USB drive as her precious, in a Gollum voice.
South Park: The Stick of Truth has a lot of references, my favourite being the introduction sequence, which is inspired by Ralph Bakshi's animated film. And the Lemmiwinks music being inspired by the Rankin/Bass cartoons  .
Battlefield 1 During a plane tutorial mission you can find a beacon on the top of a snowy mountain peak, which you can light, causing a distant mountain to light up in response.
Also, flipping it a bit.. In Lego Lord of the Rings there is a side quest in Edoras where a guy says "I used to be a citadel guard, until I took an arrow to the knee" - which is a reference to Skyrim. And if you jump from Weathertop it makes the Assassin's Creed eagle sound.
