>Because its a video game?
Not even a trope specific to video games. Look at movies like Indiana Jones or even older media that inspired all the Indiana Jones booby traps.

Honestly what's worse is games like Fallout where you're searching like an old elementary school building and a random child's locker will have like plasma rifle ammo compatible with your weapons or something. Older games can be even more nonsensical like Castlevania where you whip a random part of a spooky building and a fully cooked turkey ready to eat pops out.
