10 Video Games That Put Insane Work Into Tiny Details

10. Sinks Have Full Plumbing Modelled Underneath (In Case You Shoot Them) - The Division 2

Destructible environments have been a major technical gaming breakthrough over the last 20 years, with games like Red Faction ushering in the ability for players to wreck a large portion of the surrounding scenery with their arsenal of weaponry.

But generally speaking the destruction is usually fairly superficial, because just how much attention are most players going to really pay to the wreckage left behind?

Well, Ubisoft took things to the next level with The Division 2, whereby players could shoot ceramic sinks and peer into the photoreal plumbing that had been lovingly modelled underneath.

This bafflingly meticulous detail was discovered by Redditor tony-alexander, confirming just how much effort the developers put into making the destructible elements as tactile and authentic as possible.

Considering 99.8% of players have never even noticed this, it's both impressive and maddening that an artist clearly spent a lot of time creating these absurdly realistic plumbing models.
