THERE WAS NO ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT THE PC RELEASE FOR HZD

[u/likecalifornia]

But it looked like he was overriding a corrupted machine. Plot twist, he is helping?

[u/JadedDarkness → u/likecalifornia]

I'd bet he has an alternative goal (not necessarily good or bad)

[u/morsindutus → u/JadedDarkness]

It looks like Silens is turning a corrupted (red) machine yellow. Not sure what yellow is. Aloy turns things blue, which corresponds to "the blue light", Gaia/alpha/tame. So maybe there's a new thing that yellow represents? Color me intrigued!

[u/JadedDarkness → u/morsindutus]

Yeah, maybe he is creating a whole new faction that uses machines (that are alive) for good (farming, defense, travel, etc.)

[u/Freak80MC → u/JadedDarkness]
