Horizon: Zero Dawn - glitchy quick save in Sunfall
23Quick saving and reloading at campfires which are "inactive" will send Aloy to a wrong location somewhere nearby. I first noticed this phenomenon during post-game at Sunfall, where using the inner campfire and reloading sends Aloy some hundred meters to the west out of bounds. So, here's a video retelling that journey...
0:00 - just showing how to start the glitch. To note, I'm not sure if being in post-game is absolutely necessary for the glitch to happen. Reaching the inner campfire before the Sunfall quest or just after it might also be enough.
0:33 - so, what to do now that we're out of bounds? One good part about all this is that you're able to explore the normally inaccessible higher areas of the Sunfall and just admire the scenery.
Honestly, this game's OoBs would deserve a much more diligent sightseeing video than this hasty attempt. The scenery is too good looking.
1:37 - after following the balcony as far as it goes, you can launch Aloy to the opposite balcony with a Tearblast long jump. From there you can reach another out of bounds area further to north.
2:37 - if you take another pathway over some rooftops, you are able to drop Aloy down into the arena set piece down below and explore it freely. The crowd is a bit low-poly, not to mention faceless...
4:09 - while on my first attempts I went down to the arena using Felice's sling trick, I found out another way to survive big falls while capturing this video. And that is to blast Aloy down a fall using double Tearblast impact.
4:37 - you can reach the Ruins from the direction of the arena, even if just barely.
5:02 - as a side note, if you explore the ruins during post-game, the plot-important prompt saying "Access" still exists, but it floats seemingly in air and does nothing.
