    this is why I like Ed Boon, the first 2 mortal kombats had stuff that no one but him in the studio knew about
    most of the secret characters was just him trolling his co-workers
    not to mention a secret code to play for free on arcades that was discovered just a few years ago
    what a legend

      @Brunoki11 I think having a code like that is fraud if the arcade operator can't disable or modify it.
      The statute of limitations has passed now, but if it was discovered I think Midway could be sued.

    "The percentage of gamers that even finish the game is already staggeringly lower than what you think it is" i assume that's why volition doesn't bother to finish developing their games and just releases them as half broken messes now.

    It’s attention to detail like this that makes games all the more worthwhile to play, a shame that most of the general audience will overlook it and just want to go by what they see on the surface alone. No wonder games these days feel hollow and vapid.

    my dad got me a copy of saints row 2 that came with a map in the case and in it you can find secrets and marks that would point towards easter eggs like the rabbit in the ocean. i remember calling my dad to my room to see the cool stuff i had found too. that remains as one of my fondest memories of saints row and video games in general
    also, i grew up w/o access to the internet or even a computer so finding this stuff by myself before i even knew what a wiki was feels really cool now that i reflect back to that.

  • @Sharkmonger

    The SR2 Insurance Fraud easter egg was actually revealed on the Saints Row forums years ago in an easter egg competition hosted by then-community lead V-Singular. He kept giving little hints in a thread until somebody finally found the right combo of taunting and button presses. Unfortunately those forums are long gone (although they may still be around on the Wayback Machine) which is why that easter egg flew under the radar for so long.

  • @TheNathanNS
    @TheNathanNS Před rokem +4

    The dev isn't wrong about the amount of people seeing easter eggs being low.
    Thanks to Xbox/PS/Steam showing the % of players who got achievements, it's always like 5% - 20% of people who actually finish a game, vs something like 1.5% of people who go for 100%. That 1.5% of people are usually the ones who'll see the "secret" easter eggs. Most really do just leave and move on after the main story is done.
    It's perfectly understandable why those kinds of easter eggs aren't common anymore, why bother putting in all that effort when barely anyone will see it for themselves, and most people would just end up watching it on CZcams instead?
    I think games that have insanely easy achievements that pop up after like 10 minutes is usually something like 80%. So there's plenty of people who'll only play for the first 20 minutes and never touch it again.

    I still remember the first time I found the rabbit in SR2. kind of spooked me initially because I had no idea what I was following, but that kind of made it more memorable.
    As for whether or not players will see or care about easter eggs; if it gets players talking, gets them to play the game more, then I'd say it's worth putting in.

    • @NEEDbacon
      @NEEDbacon Před rokem

      Right? Sometimes you just got to do things for fun. So what not many people will naturally come across it. IF folks want to rationalize it to that point, why bother putting in an ending when less then 10% of people who play the game will see it. Actually, with the industry pushing live service games and such, they may have had that idea.

  • @mkarg5012
    @mkarg5012 Před rokem +1

    I think nowadays whit many people just straight up looking at files or instantly sharing their findings are the reason easter eggs are bevoming less interesting and engaging.
    There was a certain mistery and nostalgia factor in reading something like a myth and then going yourself to check it out. Damn, even finding one on your own made you feel accomplished and happy that the developer actually thought of something more than a mere alien model dot exe.

    There are 2 easter eggs that I will remember for my whole life, number 1 is the cabbit in the ocean from saints row 2. I found it all by myself long before any videos had been posted online just by goofing around and following the arrows. It was probably the very first Easter egg I ever discovered by myself.
    The other is Patricia tennis riding a fish from borderlands 1, I discovered that while waiting for my then gf (now wife) to get back so we could continue playing. I just happend to shoot the barrels in the right order and was so excited to show her I needed to reset the game and didn't save 😅

    The marketing benefit from easter eggs has to be considered by these devs when deciding what to add to a game.
    Although little easter eggs here and there wont be seen by 80-95% of the players
    It will be talked about and featured in articles and videos that get thousands to even millions of impressions. Like mortal kombats secret characters and cheatcodes is arguably one of the key reasons why the sega versions were more popular than the snes verisons.
