developer didn't put anything behind the waterfall
Developer didn't put anything behind the waterfall
they put something behind the waterfall
it's an enemy
engravings on gravestones are the devs and some inside jokes
secret behind the waterfall
+10 health pickup
+5 armor pickup
+10 money pickup
there's 20 more waterfalls like this in the game
game has extremely limited romance options
check behind waterfall
there's a sign
"nothing here :)"
turn around
exit is gone
healthbar appears
game has extremely limited romance options
I always hated that in Factorio.
kino
Bro? Your factory?
Expectations successfully subverted
Game has a canon ending.
he didn't check for breakable walls
lol
lmao
sorry but stack-inserter chan is better in every way
best equipment and permanent stat upgrades are hidden behind unmarked hidden walls
developer makes an enemy that is meant to kill you but is technically beatable
beat him
nothing changes and you still lose in the cutscene
hidden in the ceiling or floor
hidden in the ceiling of a save room
What are some other tropes you expect to see in games?
modder adds secret behind waterfall
game has "multiple endings" and choices "matter"
game forces you into an obvious trap
game railroads you into choosing the dumbest option before allowing you to choose the smart option
There’s a secret room behind a wall
There’s another secret room behind the wall in that secret room
This is the worst. There is no greater sign of SOULLESSness then this
a quarter of the game is hidden behind an illusion wall
hidden walls are randomized
DS3 is the first game that comes to mind.
izutsumi
launch game
"shoot the enemy to proceed"
shoot the enemy
YOU ARE LE BAD FOR KILLING PEOPLE IN A VIDEO GAME
DS1 did it too, getting to great hollow
secret walls have nothing that distinguishes them from normal walls
have to spend the whole game humping the surroundings if you want to find any of them
name 5 games that do this
What would you want to find behind a secret wall or waterfall or whatever?
Alternate costume?
Secret boss?
Splops: The Line
All the Metro games punish you for killing things
open treasure chest, get treasure
accidentally check chest again, secret treasure!
now you must check every empty chest
A cute baby
Oh shut up.
You aren't supposed to hurt good people.
True.
I always get the bad ending in the metro games.
Look behind waterfall
There's a scholar there
ideally a challenging enemy or area that has a good reward at the end
spec ops the line and undertale come to mind
Start the game
There is a secret room just behind you
Love that.
a mimic is encountered early in the game
its the only mimic
Undertale has a pacifist route and is considered the true ending
Bitching about spec ops the line in [current year] just makes you sound like a 12 year old who got unironically offended by the concept.
take a side path to explore for secrets
turns out the side path was the actual way forward
Even DS2 did that, a few hidden rooms that have more hidden doors in Lost Bastille
That recent guardians of the galaxy game was notorious for this
can't go back to explore the area you missed
Was replaying Doom 2016 and found it had more points of no return than I would have liked. Made secret hunting a pain in the dick.
Yeah, even OG DOOM WAD makers know better than that.
Undertale has a pacifist route and is considered the true ending
yes and you are treated like a dipshit for killing enemies that attack you

not an argument but go off queen
yes and you are treated like a dipshit for killing enemies that attack you
Because you're acting like a nigger.
every JRPG ever with slight variations
tough enemy you already fought a couple of times appears
your party is overleveled since you did ALL the side content until now
get him to 5 HP in 15 seconds flat, each party member still at full HP
cutscene shows your party blodied, panting, barely standing on their feet and the faggot who's ass you just whipped gloating and graciously letting you live, telling you to get better so you don't disappoint him next time
Any dev that boosts repeted-encounter-almost-final-boss so he's actually a thread will have my eternal gratitude
