The main quest for this chapter was reaching for the stars but before moving forward, I had to gather medicinal skybrush as Aloy didn't have full health. I had to decrease the mouse sensitivity as it was too fast and then I let Aloy eat the medicinal berries to increase her health.
There was an option that let Alloy gather collectibles automatically and I enabled it and then I checked out the photo mode which is just awesome.
I was having the tutorial in this run and there I found Blights that I had to examine. Those blue plants are Blights and some of them were peeling off like dead skin
I had to get down from the height so I used a rope slide there and Varl followed me and then I noticed more Blights and then Aloy mentioned that this stuff spreads fast. Now its everywhere but the land was fine six months ago.
We had to go towards an ancient ruins and when we got close, I noticed some flying machine were leaving the place. As I couldn't capture any good shots of those cyber-birds, I just made Aloy the model and I tried some photographs there.
We found a carcass of a machine that was left behind and it looked like it had some arrows on it. After examining the machine, Aloy understood it was taken down recently so Aloy decided to craft some arrows as there might be trouble ahead.
I almost forgot I need to craft the weapons on my own and I just remembered about it and the process now. I needed to Ridge Wood to craft arrows.
Varl noticed this ladder but he couldn't reach it he said though I noticed it was not too high for him or with a boost as there were two of them. Still, I had to use an arrow to draw the ladder down.
When we reached close to the ruins, I found this dead fox on a blight zone and it looked like the fox died for the blight poison. So, the blight is not only poisoning plants, but also killing animals.
And I was wrong about thinking the blue plants as the blight. Blight is something that poisons and make the plants blue.
Suddenly we noticed a machine that was behaving like a wild cat and it was digging up parts of the ground. After hiding in the grasses, I scanned the machine and found out its a Burrower that's eye is the weak spot so I started shooting at its eye and I took down two of them in there as another one joined the fight later.
Then I had to find an entrance to the Ancient Ruins and found this ladder that I arrowed down an climbed up.
And there we were, inside the Ancient Ruins and that's an AI receptionist that looks like Mark Zuckerberg, well looks like Mark to me at least. I had to register as visitor to get in but it didn't work.
As the register didn't work, I had to open up the gate with this other approach. Yeah, I pried open the door with force and I used the melee weapon to do that.
We found some climbing gear along with a dead body inside there and it looked like someone dropped in from above. Aloy now tried to make sense that whoever left the climbing gears there might've also shot those machines we found earlier.
After examining the rubble in that collapsed wall there, Aloy mentioned they might be able to squeeze through if they can disclose some of the debris. We found a damaged hook by the dead body that I could repair having some parts.
Both of us looked around to get the parts I needed to repair the hook and after finding them all, I used this workbench that Varl discovered and I repaired the tool which became a pullcaster, a legendary gear.
I used the pullcaster to clear some rubbles and it worked well though I had to do it several times and at last we found an opening to go to the other side and search the Ancient Ruins for a GAIA Backup.
The next chapter will be coming soon.
Screenshots are my take from the game and there's a logo that I used on the thumbnail picture.
SEE YOU.
