Points of interest:
1. You can break free from some dialogue prompts in this game. This lets you interact with the game in this unexpected glitch state, tests still in progress and what I've shown here are just some of the things that can be done with this glitched state.

2. At the start of the vid, at the Bunker, I break-out of the dialogue prompt. Walking away from the person that I'm supposed to be talking to forces that camera to keep both of them within the screen. This forces the game to zoom so far out into space that you can see oob, and areas of the Bunker being to unload.

3. At the Resistence camp I broke-out of the Jukebox prompt. Walking beyond a certain boundary lets you move around like normal except that you've got the text on screen (and in fact the jukebox item is buffered until you remove the text from the screen). For the sake of this demonstration, I then returned close to the prompt that I broke free from, this then allows me to return to my "dialogue state" at will, simply by exiting one of the text-lines of dialogue.

After that, going even further away from the prompt that you broke free from allows you to completely remove the text, but whilst keeping your "dialogue state". You are then free to interact with the game in a unique and unexpected glitched state.

4. There is good news and bad news at this date. The bad news is that you can't perform most of your normal actions whilst in this state. The good news is that you are invincible, and as 9S you are able to hack any robot, and your invincibility also applies to your mini-game. Meaning that you can kill any robot with impunity.

Tests still in progress.
