Best Video Game Easter Eggs
DOOM had been hibernating for far too long, and Bethesda and id Software knew that it was time for the Doom Guy to awaken from his slumber in a literal fashion. DOOM (2016) didn’t try and reinvent the character, but instead brought him back as the Doom Slayer, a man who fears no Hell, for he has conquered it. The Doom Slayer rips, tears, and kills demons like a hobby , just like he did way back in 1993’s original DOOM g
Players could actually find the classic maps and levels in the form of retro secret areas in DOOM (2016)’s main campaign. Finding a retro lever, players could activate a secret door, with original DOOM enemies from 1993. It was great fun, and nostalgic, and allowed players to see how far the Doom Guy has come, as well as the technol
First released on PlayStation 3 in 2010, Dead Nation made its PS4 debut in 2014 with the Apocalypse Edition. The top down shooter has friends exploring a post-apocalyptic world full of zombies while looking for any way to survive. The game starts pretty easy, but once it gets going, hordes of zombies are thrown at players making for an exciting co-op g
Diablo 's world of Sanctuary has a lot of promise. There's a depth to it that is ever hinted at, and in particular the atmosphere of Diablo 2 created this sense of a much greater universe outside of what the player saw. It's a series with some strong lore behind it, but it's fair to say that the franchise has never quite reached the heights of great storytell
Cyberpunk 2077 is another video game that features plenty of easter eggs and homages to other pop culture productions, especially video games. One of the more noticeable ones may be the fact that players can literally find Hideo Kojima in Cyberpunk 2077 . However, one that players might have missed, is that the Bridge Baby from Death Stranding can be fo
Finally, Blizzard could also release new classes at halfway points between each expansion. They could start with a basic set of five classes, much like the release of Diablo 3 , and then add our old favorites again, including the Necromancer, Druid, Paladin/Crusader, Amazon, and whatever other fan-favorite classes would ensure another purchase. Unlike expansions, these would not be mandatory, but few would pass up a new class in their favorite game!
The statue is alive. Held together by chains and metals, the heart of the statue beats slowly, and Nico Belic can do nothing but watch this dark secret. It’s certainly creepy to see a heart larger than a car, and even creepier still that it lies within the iconic Liberty City statue. Yet, it’s just one of many unexplained and mysterious easter eggs in Grand Theft Auto
The grind for loot is only worthwhile if the loot is good. Diablo 3 introduced an interesting concept to have players grind for more and more personal power, but this had the effect of making the items less interesting or import
Having known little about the games mechanics, my two friends showed me the ropes and eventually we were mining our way into caves and avoiding enemies while also building a base we could call home. As a co-operative experience, Minecraft is anything you want it to be and that’s the beauty of the game. Whether it’s simply building structures with friends or exploring when the sun goes down, Minecraft offers a wide variety of co-operative p
This can even be seen in other games that try to emulate the Diablo formula. Shadows: Awakening mixes things up a little with the ability to shift between characters and realms with a touch of a button, and although Check This Out isn't something that Diablo 4 should directly have, it shows that with a little ingenuity the repetitive clicking can have new life breathed into
The Skill mechanics have been a controversial subject for fans. On the one hand players like the Diablo 4 gold farming 2 skill tree that has players focusing on different skills for unique builds to complement their style of play. On the other hand players like that Diablo 3 took the pressure of planning builds, removed the risk of creating broken characters, and having to restart if you want to try a different skill
Instead of players grinding for that powerful sickle for their necromancers they were wielding random spears or axes because it boosted their overall power. Introducing powerful items that shakeup the gameplay or interesting synergies would put the grind back on items and less on Paragon lev
A lot has changed in video games since Diablo 3 first announced, and the level of restriction placed on the game at launch would be even more criticized in the modern day. Although the stuttering start to Diablo 3 's life in the wild may have been forgotten about (aside from those few who still get chills at the mere mention of Error 37), it's fair to say that the limited options available upon release would not fly to
For whatever reason Diablo 3 stepped back to only supporting four player co-ops and this was frankly a mistake. Fans would love to see Diablo 4 return to the large co-op style of play and even introducing large raid dungeons for 10-20 players to tackle toget
