What Will Happen If You Go to The Far Zeniths Base Before Completing The Singularity Quest

[Haegemon]

Usually programmers can choose between two approaches to deal with "not yet accessible" zones since the early Nintendo consoles. 1. A barrier 2. unbeatable enemies 3. a combination of both. This should have been the perfect occasion for unbeatable island defenses.

It woulda been so cool if they KNEW you can bug inside and ALL the spectres just turn on you, and if you somehow manage to make it to the top shuttle, the Zeniths just shoot you down

"Oh hi Beta, what's with the bow?"
-Spectre, probably

I love flying. Also love how when you call the sunwing it grabs Aloy and yeets her onto its back. Really cute.

At least they made the barrier the same as the shields the Zenith wear so it makes sense. Its not just a random wall

How funny! the other day I was walking by the coast and I saw these huge modern buildings and freaked out lol I knew instantly this must be the zenith installation and was totally blown away by the discovery. Legit tried to do this same thing but kept getting turned away, either by the current or -when i could fly- by the shield.

I know im not the only one who hoped to be able to loot zenith gear after killing one of them.

Anyone else disappointed that you can't explore the island officially outside of the final mission. Like there's an actual post-game setting this time, and a perfect opportunity to see some tribe move into the base and Oseram open in all up to see how it works.

I wish in the next game, they could show two flashbacks. A flashback of the war against the Faro Plague and a flashback of how the Far Zenith managed to escape their planet.

There has to be a trilogy. With Nemesis on the way...its gona be crazy. The moment the Far Zenith folks walked through the door at Hades Proving Lab...you knew shit was gona take a crazy turn.

The barrier makes sense because it's like the shields the Zenith use. I always love when barriers are integrated. Also in the beginning when you go to the Shadow Carja refuges before you've talked to Petra.

That's what I call forbidden west. 😂

This game is beautiful . I’ve been kinda burnt out on games lately have forgotten the magic that some of them have . Until … I spotted this zenith base and just got curious so I started to pursue it, I was swimming through the ocean as it became dark and the moonlight was shining so bright, it was like I was a kid again experiencing a game or the excitement and mystery of a game for the first time again . I can’t explain it really it was special though I got lost for those couple hours …

Gotta love how once you know how game engines work you can start to see the game in a programming state.
Like how the voice lines played in certain areas and all that. Theyre obviously just box entities with a "enter" trigger that plays audio, but its cool to see.

[zanis_summers]

They did a really great job of minimizing sequence breaks in this game. In any other game this probably would have gotten you to the end.
This was ultra cool

[abitofaviation]

Pretty clever actually to do this shield and the water current. Also super nice how Aloy is commenting everything even though you are not supposed to go there. These small details! Perfect!

[LinusWilson]

Used the Mount to glitch through walls. It’s a classic open world trick,

[hedstj]

I was in a random ruin and suddenly Aloy said something like ”I’m sure Tilda wouldn’t mind me looking around” and i knew in that moment I had fucked up lol

[RovingPunster]

4:09 I love how the flying mount plucks Aloy outta the sea like a herring, then flicks her over its shoulder. 🤣

I think it’s an amazing way to stop people from getting to the island since it it shows how advanced the zeniths are and I’m glad they added a barrier/energy shield instead of an invisible barrier like on the island.
