10 Pointless Video Game Endings You Unlocked Anyway

4: It’s Getting Real - The Witness

The Witness is an odd puzzle masterpiece with a lot of clever moving parts and plenty of interesting things to say. Unsurprisingly, it also has a secret ending that you probably unlocked because it’s insanely easy to do. Sure, you could explore the island completing all its little puzzle boards as intended or you can line up an environmental puzzle using the sun and venture deep into a secret area to find what is truly up there with the more batshit bizarre endings on this list.

You go through a little museum of sorts celebrating the game and then go through a door which loads up an eight minute video of a dude getting up in a house.

After unhooking himself from a couple of devices he sort of just moseys around for the most part, looking at computers, going outside, eating a biscuit, looking at the sky, hitting stuff with a spoon.

It makes little to no sense, but we are gamers and it’s in there, so a lot of us unlocked this ending anyway.
