When pc gaming got bigger and people realized they could just look through the files and see everything that was in the game. Of all the things pc gaming ruined, removing the mystery behind games was one of the most unforgivable.
People can look through the entire game code and force events nowadays, people also compile collections of a shit ton of the events and mysteries in a game on forums or in videos so any easter egg in any semi popular game is found asap.
Its also the reason MMOs arent nearly as fun nowadays as well.
WoW still has a lot of bullshit secrets like this

Pokémon is the biggest serie where I looked out for every mysteries and myths with my bros.
I got bamboozled so hard with Zarbis, Jirachi comet and other things.
>some guy at school (older than me) told me I had to run in 1000 perfect 4-length-sides squares in the sand to get Mew >i believed him
It was a better time
Pokemon unironically had mysteries though. Remember the unknown cave in gold (which turned out just to be a mystery that allowed you to print out shit in the unknown font if you connected it to a gameboy printer once you catch all 26 unknowns and go back to the lab).
Or the regi mystery in emerald/ruby/sapphire?
>"Dude! Imagine what we can obtain i we clear the entier Battle Frontier!"
It truly was a better time.

The sixth gen feels incomplete, like a big reveal was coming but it never paid off all those megas and ancient forms.
The whole quantum shit and parallel universe only to forget all of it and go full moron om Hawaii and their subsequent sequels.
Remember watching so many of these videos back then.
Then one time, while a friend was over, we had activated the 'cars can fly' cheat, which had a side effect of making some planes skid across the ground (unbeknownst to us). Remember approaching the airfield at night and seeing all the planes go crazy. We shat ourselves.
But yeah I spent a fair few hours looking for Bigfoot and all the other GTA SA mythos characters.
I remember before we had a computer with internet connection, we had this thick guide book that had all kinds of cheat codes for a shitton of different games all in that one book.
We mostly used it for the cheat codes in GTA San Andreas but for all the other games we had I would occasionally try to find them in that little cheat book and find a neat little cheat.
Now you can just google whatever you want.
It's certainly more convenient but I don't know if it's necessarily better.

And half of them never worked. Or maybe I was just a moronic kid.

When did video games stop having cool mysteries?
When game wikis started popping up.
these and
dataminers
I feel like wikis and dataminers really go hand in hand since wikis provided a very accesible format for dataminers to show off on.

To be fair, the manual did explicitly tell you to watch out for braile.
They robbed us
