There were also some genuinely scary places on Farside, like the derelict silo that was infested with a swarm of brain-parasites and had no ambient lighting.

Your character helped the cyber-tree, and then before it could reveal major plot points, the Dominion blew it up and started a forest fire, so you had to escape the zone.

Everstar Grove was the recommended noob zone for Aurin and Mordesh. It was the first ground zone of Nexus I ever did in the beta (after the arkship tutorial). Hearing the BGM always brings me back.

Now, to be fair, the Ellevar Pell had reason to hate the Dominion, since one nobleman essentially gave them smallpox-infested blankets. But that wasn't MY CHARACTER'S FAULT, DON'T ATTACK ME D:

There was some kind of challenge that required jumping across the tops of those geysers. I never could successfully do it. xD

I can almost feel the damp wind on my face looking at some of these.

Ellevar was scenic, sure, but I feel like it would probably also be chilly and humid. Not sure I'd be comfortable there in real life.

The kaiju-bird (holo shown is his actual size) is Osiric, the Primeval of Air.

Ahh, the Caretaker…a snarky holographic supercomputer. <3 He maintained ALL the Nexus Project's info, but when the Genesis Prime went apeshit, he intentionally corrupted himself to keep the most crucial data out of her reach.

But, as we found out along the way, something went Horribly Wrong (shocker!!!) and the Genesis Prime was corrupted from the start, and killed all the Eldan when they tried to stop her.

The Nexus Project's ultimate goal was to create a godlike being that could manipulate reality at will, the Genesis Prime. Dominion dogma held that the Eldan fell out of contact because they all ascended to godhood.

Exploring ancient Eldan labs was a piece of cake! Unless you ran into escaped experiments. Or rogue AI. Or fires set by rogue AI.

She got sucked into a giant datacube, a massive information dump directly into her brain, and then was spat out and got up and walked away. HOW DOES THAT MAKE SENSE EVEN SHEPARD HAD A MIGRAINE AFTER THE PROTHEAN CIPHER

I took a TON of detail screenshots of Eldan lab interiors, since I knew I'd need lots of references for fancomics.

The Alpha Sanctum was a single-player dungeon that was one of the first places your character started to learn about what the Eldan were really doing on Nexus.

When they overhauled the new player intro area, it went from being on your faction's generation ship to a holo-VR version of a coastal zone that had been planned for the game but never released.

The laser beams in the sky are from the malfunctioning Eldan terraformer. Too bad we can't use one of those on Earth to fix the burned parts of the Amazon.
