10 Important Video Game Plot Twists Barely Anyone Saw
8. Delivering To The Enemy (Death Stranding)
Hideo Kojima's bonkers Death Stranding is a game that's all about delivery, using the act of transporting goods to attempt to reconnect America. But, while your overall goal is an ambitious one, you can still engage in the small scale, as seen in the Peter Englert Pizza Delivery side quests. Because, come on, what could be more important than delivering pizza?
These side missions task you with delivering Mr. Englert's pies in a swift manner, keeping them nice and hot. However, there's an unbelievable revelation to these side quests that you can miss entirely. You see, Peter Englert is an alias used by the game's antagonist, Higgs Monaghan, meaning you've been bringing tasty food to your enemy the whole time.
You'll discover this either by exploring Peter's bunker after defeating Higgs and uncovering his hideout, which reveals all via writing on the walls and a memory chip.
The science nerds out there might have even caught this one even earlier, given that the name Peter Englert is an amalgamation of the names Peter Higgs and François Englert, scientists known for discovering the Higgs Mechanism, for which the villain gets his name. Now that's some sneaky work.
