I do prefer the fact that it continues after the main story ends rather than puts you back to just prior to the final battle.
I don't like that it then stops you from going to the area where the Zenith base is.
I also don't like that everyone just fūcks off from your base after the story ends like "let's just leave Aloy and Sylens to prepare for this new world ending threat that's coming.
I also don't like that you can no longer interact with GAIA as she's in a permanent state of reinitialising after the story.
Anyway. Still grinding out the max upgrades. Done 1 armour set and 3 weapons and all pouches.
Guess I'm also gonna have to do the strike matches so I can max out the skill tree as I need the points.
Also got the last race to do to get the last legendary weapon.
