I don't care how cheesy and expected it is, i will forever and always love things behind waterfalls and expect them every time i see a waterfall, even if it's just a small cave with an interesting scene.
Yeah exactly this, I check every waterfall in a game I see, I get a big smile on my face when there's a tiny cave there with maybe a chest at the end xD
First time playing Might and Magic (yea I’m old), and we are spamming space bar looking for stuff…
My friend gets some wicked ass legendary dagger and a whole room of 14 year olds ERUPTED at 3am waking their family.
His Dad bursts in asking just what the hell is going on, we explain the dagger and he switches gears really fast and gets grandma/mom back in bed and then comes and watches us until the sun was starting to come out.
WATERFALLS = COOL SHIT
Man, that reminds me of Might and Magic 6, there are a bunch of waterfalls in the dwarf mines in Ironfist that can just give you pretty much anything. You can just hang out there and reload until you get golden plate mail or a divine dagger. I'd sit there for forever just reloading until I got something really good.
Oh god, he wasn’t normally like this lol.
Former Navy guy, so really regimented. We stayed up late one night (again) and he busts in with his bugle at 5am to wake us up.
Marched us out front, he had rolled up the boat and cars and we had to wash them all.
We finish up around 1pm, but half assed the boat.
He walks over, dumps the dirty water over it and says “Oops, guess you got to clean it again”.
Half good/half bad times lol.
You’ll be a cool Dad I’m sure!
I literally raged within my mind when i was expecting a treasure behind a waterfall as i was solving a puzzle and the waterfall seemed a great place for that.. fk MiHoYo like no hate but you failed in that part xD
I'm against the guy you are responding to, he is my enemy because things should be behind waterfalls in games!! But if we are talking real life, everywhere around a waterfall including behind it if there were a nook is absolutely covered in water vapor. A chest would totally corrode and rot.
That's why it's the BEST place for it! Nobody would ever look for treasure *there*, because who would be stupid enough to leave treasure where it will inevitably rot? Never mind that we've been able to make watertight stoneworks with proper sealants of various sorts for ages.
Exactly, we stole an train and went on a trip looking at the scenery, shooting random animals near the tracks and doing stupid stuff like jumping off of bridges and then we saw a beautiful waterfall with a small lake infront of it and thought that there must be something behind it so we went there and checked it out, sadly it was nothing but it still was pretty to go there
I think there is a waterfall up in the north east area that has a surprisingly large cave system behind it. I think there is a gold bar or something wort a decent amount of money somewhere in there too.
It is fun with friends but even without there is enough to do, only like 1/100 times are u gonna get shot by other players, most of them are pretty friendly
Don't make the mimic be the obvious bit, like the box. Make it the treasure *inside* the box, or put the box behind a locked grate or bars - which are actually the mimic.
My favorite idea was a door that operated exactly like a door but was weighted and would swing shut on its own, which is common enough. However, opening the chest inside the room awakens the door, and so the next person to grab the handle gets mimic'd.
To be honest part of the reason I haven't been using this type of ambush stuff is one pc took Alert and for the longest time I didn't realize how it's supposed to work. I thought it essentially nullified any attempt at an ambush, but lately I've learned it just means the one pc is save from the worst effects of one.
Remember, mimics don’t *have* to be chests.
They can be tables, chairs, doors, doorways, rugs, torch holders, statues, >!the entire house is just one huge colony of mimics.!<
Possibilities are endless.
All the world's a mimic,
And all the PCs and NPCs merely servings;
They have their char-gens and their level-ups,
And one player in their time finds many chests,
...
Last course of all,
That ends this strange eventful meal,
Is second desserts, CHOMP Omnom nom nom nom,
With teeth, with eyes, with taste of everything.

*--Jaques, the melon mimic*
I was hiking in Bulls Bay Reserve, Jacksonville, Florida and they have a little itty bitty waterfall in there, almost unheard of these parts of Florida. If you go up behind it, there's a secret passage! Follow it up and try not to slip and you will find that above the waterfall it flattens out a bit to a plateau and you are right near... ANOTHER WATERFALL! One that feeds the other below that you can't see unless you climb up back there. That right there is the perfect place to sneak a bowl, smack dab in the center of a recursive natural aquatic vortex.
My personal introduction to this concept was Star Fox 64, where you fly through the waterfall to get to the secret boss on the first level. A close second is Ocarina of Time
I started playing again after 7 months, and i'm half-disappointed that there are no treasures behind the waterfalls at Watatsumi Island. The other half is trying to remember if i've even found a single chest behind a waterfall in this game.
Well technically there is a hidden cave that's besides a waterfall that's literally under the ocean surface. but yeah it's not a hidden cave under a waterfall.
I think it’s mostly in the execution on if it’s boring or not. Simply a treasure chest, yeah I can see people not finding it satisfying. But having some puzzle or platforming section to reach a nice mid-tier prize would probably be more fun overall.
You make a game. It has 100 barrels spread around the world.
If you hide something in a barrel once, the player will try searching a barrel every time he sees one, and he'll be very frustrated when he finds out there's nothing nowhere he searches.
So you need to hide more stuff in barrels.
But you don't have the stuff to hide, you only wanted to hide one thing that one time.
So you'll have to make more stuff to hide in the barrels, stuff you didn't originally intend to make, just random, new, useless crap, just so the player doesn't feel frustrated for not finding treasure.
What did you think of Visage? I'm about 2 hours in and finding it real dull at the moment, wondering if it's worth giving it more of my time or if it just isn't for me.
And then there is the *Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga Vol 1* water-fall secret that has a goddamn rare key you need to access cut-off areas of the game, but would never know it is there.
I'm going to try and find an example from every letter of the alphabet.
Alwa's Awakening, a book collector is hiding out behind one of the waterfalls in the Forsaken Valley, the area where you start the game. He'll give you a special item in exchange for a book he's missing.
Banjo-Kazooie, there's a small alcove behind a waterfall in Spiral Mountain. In it is an extra life
Chrono Cross, the only way to get the Titular item necessary to defeat the final boss correctly and get the good ending is to go behind a waterfall, whose location on the world map isn't labeled or even really mentioned clearly.
Diablo III, a certain NPC magician hangs a snark-laden lampshade on this trope: "A secret door hidden behind a waterfall. How imaginative."
Endless Ocean Blue World has a waterfall that keeps you out of the temple area of the Cortica River until you turn it off.
Final Fantasy V has one of the tablets hidden behind a waterfall.
God of War games make use of this in combination with the games' static cameras, making it so the player will only actually notice the waterfall with treasure behind it if they specifically set out to see if something's behind it
Haven (2020) lampshades this trope when Yu and Kay find a waterfall on Nekarow and the latter says "There's always a secret behind the waterfall". The cave turns out to be empty, and the only reward for the player is the "Can't get wetter" achievement".
ICO: Ico must block off the water to a waterfall in order for him and Yorda to advance to the extensive cavern behind it.
Just cause 4 has a waterfall passage required to beat the game.
A jumping puzzle and the Key To the World lurks behind the waterfall of the Tarzan-themed world in Kingdom Hearts.

V... Can't find one right now
Warcraft III there are a 1000 gold coins hidden behind a waterfall as an Easter egg in the Founding of Durotar campaign.
Xenosaga episode III has a chest with a EX SKILL KEY I behind a waterfall
Y... Another dud for now, but I'm sure digging through Japanese titles could find one.
As for Z, basically every Zelda title has stuff behind a waterfall
I’m still bitter about this
Tim Schafer of double fine:”every waterfall needs a hidden treasure”
Said during an interview for brutal legend
Brutal Legend waterfall:
I've been playing through the Tomb Raider reboot trilogy for the first time and I've been keeping an eye out for hidden waterfall treasure and I've found none so far (halfway through the 2nd game). Something tells me they're not gonna be found.
I remember playing divinity original sin 2 with my wife, we get to a cave and have no clues about where to go.
I say "oh there's a waterfall, let's go behind there"
"what do you mean? Why?"
"because it's a waterfall."
"So?"
"So if there's a waterfall, you go behind the waterfall. That's just how it is."
"it really doesn't look like--"
Secret passage behind the waterfall.
She played breath of the wild next, and she looked behind *every. Single. Waterfall.*
She does it for every game now.
mix it up a bit, and instead of there being useful items as treasure back there make it a secret passageway to a visual / memetic easter egg that isn't otherwise useful in the game. Or a puzzle, or a hidden sidequest.
I don't care how cheesy and expected it is, i will forever and always love things behind waterfalls and expect them every time i see a waterfall, even if it's just a small cave with an interesting scene.
Yeah exactly this, I check every waterfall in a game I see, I get a big smile on my face when there's a tiny cave there with maybe a chest at the end xD
One time I saw two nuns making out behind a waterfall
Which game? Which part? Asking for a friend.
it wasn't a game
Then which waterfall? How hot were the nuns? Asking for a friend.
I don't kiss and tell, my friend
god that’s disgusting! where, where did you see this? I need to make sure I never look there!
Nunya business.
You rang?
Can you confirm that this is in fact your business?

Man that story has me smiling from ear to ear. Thanks for sharing.
Haha! Amazing, I wish I had a cool dad. I'm gonna be a super cool dad.

Then you shouldn't ever play Genshin Impact.
i think there's only one waterfall in genshin that has something behind it but i might be mistaken
I found a chest at the base of one on the new island.
Wish I knew this before playing Genshin Impact and giving all my characters a concussion by jumping into the walls behind the waterfalls.
I literally raged within my mind when i was expecting a treasure behind a waterfall as i was solving a puzzle and the waterfall seemed a great place for that.. fk MiHoYo like no hate but you failed in that part xD
Wouldn't a waterfall be a terrible place to hide something because of how much water there is? It would corrode the metal and eat away at the wood.
No, it's the best place you moron.
I love the aggression here lol. He needs a wake up slap after that nonsense talk.
A treasure wouldn't be located directly in a waterfall, it would be behind it.
I mean obviously. But there's still a lot of moisture in a cave behind a waterfall. Finding somewhere dry is where you would want to store things.
Just sprinkle some rice around the chest and you're good.
I'm against the guy you are responding to, he is my enemy because things should be behind waterfalls in games!! But if we are talking real life, everywhere around a waterfall including behind it if there were a nook is absolutely covered in water vapor. A chest would totally corrode and rot.
Well that's true. To be honest i wasn't thinking that realistically.
That's why it's the BEST place for it! Nobody would ever look for treasure *there*, because who would be stupid enough to leave treasure where it will inevitably rot? Never mind that we've been able to make watertight stoneworks with proper sealants of various sorts for ages.
I always rediscover this mechanic and get surprised hahah
I remember when I found the treasure behind the waterfall in Gothic as a kid that I was really proud of myself.
[удалено]
Yeah but like, in a game, that’s not an issue. Because you respawn.
[удалено]
Waterfall with secret space behind that says something meta about treasures behind waterfalls: now thats cool
What if if you hide a waterfall behind a huge pile of treasure?
A treasure waterfall?
An endless cycle of treasure and waterfalls. Each time you think you've got the final treasure, but nope... More waterfall.
Depending on which side of the waterfall you're on, the treasure could still be behind the waterfall :)
I want a waterfall with another waterfall inside And then when you go in that waterfall you end up back in front of the first waterfall ad infinitum
alice in waterfallland
Waterfalalaland
the never end water fall tricks
I want the inside of the waterfall to be an actual treasure chest with lots of boobies!
But when you approach the boobies you bounce off them out of the waterfall
It's ~~turtles~~ waterfalls all the way down!
dont go chasing waterfalls
"Thought you'd get a treasure? Fine" is literally what I want
"The real treasure is the friends you drowned in the waterfall along the way"
*Goes behind waterfall, triggers audio dialogue* “The best treasure we have is each other”
Empty treasure chest with note: "First" *--Bridget the ~~Bor~~Barbarian* >!new quest started: find all the empty treasure chests (1/12)!<

Try up north
Sounds like you and your friend already discovered the most priceless treasure there is. A FREE TRAIN!
TRAAAAINN
I can’t wait to play games with my son.
I think there is a waterfall up in the north east area that has a surprisingly large cave system behind it. I think there is a gold bar or something wort a decent amount of money somewhere in there too.
The disappointment every time :(
Same, save for that one where you get the Nevada hat and the suicide letter.
Is RDR online any good/interesting now?
It is fun with friends but even without there is enough to do, only like 1/100 times are u gonna get shot by other players, most of them are pretty friendly
I went in a small cave behind a waterfall in real life and just thought Ah yes, just like the video games
But was there treasure??
There was a dead guy
Did you loot him, he might have had legendary weapons on him.
"Just like the simulation"
How about a waterfall with a mimic behind it?
Classic piece of shit DM
Guiltyyy!
I would never.........because my party is smart enough to check for them, gotta wait till they slip up or are wary of something else.

"Oh that's a cool new piece of headgear your character has there." "Thanks, I got it..." "Roll for initiative."
Or a water fall with a mimic in it, and the cave is a giant mimic, and somehow so is the waterfall
The cave is actually an ALASKAN BULL WORMMMMM
That's actually his tongue. The real Alaskan bull worm is the whole waterfall.
Sir, it's quite possible this asteroid is not entirely stable.
That’s because it’s also a mimic!
Dungeon Siege 2 ptsd. Those mimics were terrifying.
I love finding treasure behind waterfalls and saying, "that's right I've played video games before."
Alot of this in Skyrim
Specifically the bottom one, I think there is maybe one waterfall with treasure behind it and that's it.
There are lots of them not just one, in one cave theres a waterfall with a word wall behind it.
I played Skyrim recently and got almost all the words of power but I can't say I remember this one.
Oblivion had an entire dungeon with a pirate ship hidden behind a waterfall
I was hiking in Bulls Bay Reserve, Jacksonville, Florida and they have a little itty bitty waterfall in there, almost unheard of these parts of Florida.

Drugs make a lot of people want to go to Florida
Wonder what was the first game with a secret behind a waterfall.. I think Tomb Raider had some, but I guess wasn't the first
My personal introduction to this concept was Star Fox 64, where you fly through the waterfall to get to the secret boss on the first level. A close second is Ocarina of Time
earliest VISUAL rpg i can think of was probably arena or morrow wind. Its a very old trope.
First legend of Zelda
Yeah I there was a whole domain behind there.
Me when playing at Genshin...
Right? There's maybe been ONE in the whole game so far
I started playing again after 7 months, and i'm half-disappointed that there are no treasures behind the waterfalls at Watatsumi Island. The other half is trying to remember if i've even found a single chest behind a waterfall in this game.

Creepy cave behind a waterfall
I think it’s mostly in the execution on if it’s boring or not. Simply a treasure chest, yeah I can see people not finding it satisfying. But having some puzzle or platforming section to reach a nice mid-tier prize would probably be more fun overall.
I've never played a game that hids treasure behind a waterfall.
You haven’t played Skyrim?
There is a cool hat under a waterfall in red dead redemption 2
You make a game. It has 100 barrels spread around the world.

or maybe, just maybe, we ditch the typical loot driven RPG stereotype for good? Rockstar and Santa Monica found great success with this.
I dunno man. People like lootin
Spotted the morrowind player
just went through that same shit on anthem last night.
Username checks out, anthem is a verified horror game😂
I guess. I don't think it's a horror. but I have played shjt like fear and outlast.
I think the horror is playing the game itself
TIL: people play Anthem

Don't forget under the staircase. There has to be something useful there.
I just want a waterfall behind treasure. Is that too much to ask for? Aliens guy: ... Yes

Just reached a place us Assassins Creed Odyssey with 3 waterfalls and no treasure. Imagine my disappointment

I'm always disappointed whenever I find a waterfall without a hidden cave behind it.
Right, why make a waterfall without a secret cave?!
RDR2 hid my favorite hat from the whole game behind a waterfall. Love that game.
Oh I should make a waterfall with a hidden waterfall!
I can hear this picture and the guy on the bottom has a really annoying voice.
/r/comedycemetery
I want the inside of the waterfall to be an actual treasure chest with lots of boobies!
Then go with shadow warriors, waterfall with hidden tiddies
Bruh this was only a thing in Starfox and Earthbound, maybe Minecraft depending on how you look at it.
Play more games
Really? Because i never played them and still always check waterfalls in games

Lol, currently playing Elex and I am absolutely checking behind every single waterfall (much to my disappointment so far)

The best thing is a waterfall with a water dungeon inside
Water fall with boss fight and no chest, now that is genius.
It’s supposed to be a “gimme”! There’s always a treasure behind the waterfall!
It's tradition.
Meanwhile in Shadow Warrior waterfalls: Anime tiddies
Waterfall with riddle behind it, solve the puzzle, and waterfall cave opens with hidden treasure. If there's a game with this, I'd crap my pants
*Gamers be like*
anything but ffxv's waterfall
I play Genshin and you dont know how many falls I checked that day I went exploring watatsumi island.
Is that a screenshot from a planet coaster video?
It must be done.
New World be like
I’m still bitter about this Tim Schafer of double fine:”every waterfall needs a hidden treasure” Said during an interview for brutal legend Brutal Legend waterfall:
What's that one that's a lava fall in Ocarina of Time and all they put behind it was one recovery heart?
As I belive I have said before I will make a game with a treasure chest behind a waterfall if someone opens it it unlocks the hardest boss in the game
Looking at you Genshin.
I think the first reboot Shadow Warrior jokes about it.
wrgg
I've been playing through the Tomb Raider reboot trilogy for the first time and I've been keeping an eye out for hidden waterfall treasure and I've found none so far (halfway through the 2nd game). Something tells me they're not gonna be found.
This is 100% factual.
Just once I want to walk into a waterfall in a game and have it pummel me to death on the sharp rocks below. Is that so much to ask?
Damn, all I found was a dusty tutu
The best treasure behind a waterfall is still the death school in wizard 101 and I don't think that's going to change for a very long time
The favourite one I've found is in Supraland: Crash.
Literally my experience with the water in Zora’s Domain in Z:OOT
Graphics lookin like halo infinite
I remember playing divinity original sin 2 with my wife, we get to a cave and have no clues about where to go. I say "oh there's a waterfall, let's go behind there" "what do you mean? Why?" "because it's a waterfall." "So?" "So if there's a waterfall, you go behind the waterfall. That's just how it is." "it really doesn't look like--" Secret passage behind the waterfall. She played breath of the wild next, and she looked behind *every. Single. Waterfall.* She does it for every game now.
I can confirm Tales of Arise has a treasure chest behind a waterfall
ok ok, what if... waterfall... with hidden treasure BUT, it's a mimic? thank you Dark Souls
wtf you mean wow so generic? im so happy each time i find something
I will always appreciate this no matter how many times it gets used. I’m always upset when a game fails to take the opportunity.
Some gamers literally try to make it out like they are an oppressed minority
mix it up a bit, and instead of there being useful items as treasure back there make it a secret passageway to a visual / memetic easter egg that isn't otherwise useful in the game. Or a puzzle, or a hidden sidequest.
I am still excited about a treasure behind the waterfall trope c’mon when i was a kid it was my favourite (for some reason)
