10. Special Training - High On Life

High On Life is an FPS that takes every opportunity it can get to troll its players.

Especially when it involves an unnecessarily long easter egg that takes an hour to unlock.

During the mission to hunt down Douglas, the player needs to infiltrate the alien's secret training facility.

You enter the complex through a theater room where Douglas gives an introductory video to his new recruits. With plenty of jabs and insults, he tells you that you need to prove your resolve before you can move onto the next training area by waiting for a full hour.

Since no one actually wants to spend that much time doing nothing, the game immediately gives you a new objective to enter the complex via a vent.

However, the developers have actually included a secret for those who wait.

Sort of…

If you stick inside the room anyway, every fifteen minutes your gun will make a comment about it. For this reason, you might assume that waiting does cause the main entrance to open.

And yes, after an hour passes, Douglas congratulates you and the entrance opens, but before you can get it, it breaks, and then you're forced to use the vents anyway.

Well, that was a load of nothingburger!
