Nowadays, after a few minutes of trying to figure out the solution, it will probably send you straight to Google, where a descriptive search will effortlessly direct you to a YouTube video where some random guy gives you a step-by-step solution. But back then, you might try different approaches or retrace your steps aimlessly for days before finally stumbling across some random NPC you forgot to talk to to progress the story, the repetition and desperate searching committing areas of the game to memory to the point where you could probably draw them 20 years later. The next day, you'd share what you'd discovered with your friends to disseminate the knowledge. This constant discussion about games and their mysteries would lead to the emergence of rumors and the misconstruction of facts, which morphed into gamers' desires to form an almost sort of mythology of secrets…
These gamers gathered together to share the rumors from days past that they once thought were real.
