10 Video Game Secrets That Literally Wasted Your Time
7. Modder's Room - Left 4 Dead 2
When Left 4 Dead 2 released its collection of maps from the original Left 4 Dead, the recreations were actually made by the game's modders community.
Because of it, there is a secret easter egg that references the modders that even comes with a reward.
The only problem is that it takes an abysmally long amount of time to find.
On the map "The Last Stand," there is a small shed with a set of metal doors up front. While the doors aren't interactable and look more like a background asset, they can be secretly destroyed to access a hidden area, but it will take you a good ten or so minutes of swinging.
Yes, to destroy the doors, you first need to find a melee weapon like a shovel or an axe and then keep swinging it into the static texture for almost ten minutes straight.
Your reward for giving yourself carpal tunnel is a developer's room that can provide you with a golden crowbar if you interact with the keyboard next to the computer in the back.
And yes, the weapon is neat, but maybe it shouldn't require abusing the player's clicking finger to unlock...
