10 Open World Games That Are Best Played Linearly
While these games do offer a whole world for you to explore, it’s best if you follow the set path.
There And Back Again is the first main quest that starts as soon as you finish the first cutscene, and you’ll quickly see what type of game this is as you’ll have to find your way around the terrain to reach your destinations.
How To Get Past The Sewers
As soon as the starting cutscene ends and you control your character, you’ll see a giant wall with glowing bits in front. The main entry will be to the left of these glowing bits. Once you enter, you can follow the path on your left and crouch through some of the objects until you reach a door blocked by wooden planks.
You can easily remove these planks and the lock on the next door with your knife. Once past the door with the lock, you’ll enter the sewer system where you’ll find an electric anomaly. Wait for the anomaly to go forward and then follow its path until you see another path going on your left, which you can follow out of the sewers.
How To Get In The Mobile Lab
Once you jump down from the sewers, you’ll have to defeat your first mutant and then you can follow the main mission mark on your scale at the top. This will take you directly to the mobile lab through some house ruins It’s recommended to explore these ruins as you can get some ammo and other survival items in them.
As you follow the path, you’ll eventually reach the mobile base that you can climb through the ladders on one of its sides. As you get to the top, use the stairs to get to the hatch and stand on the wooden structure beside it to trigger a cutscene, which will lead you inside.
In the bunker, you’ll find multiple bodies and a ton of loot. You’ll also find Nehoda’s body in the room at the very end along with a switch to turn on the lights. Take the items from his body and head back to the first room in the lab, where you’ll find a laptop to extract the coordinates of the three scanner sites.
After getting back out of the bunker, you’ll find a pool of toxins nearby where you’ll get your first artifact.
Simply move in the direction where the blue light on the detector gets more aggressive and you’ll reach it. You can then equip the artifact from your inventory.
Right after getting the artifact, you’ll face a special mutant that can go invisible until it gets close enough to attack you. It’s important to track this enemy’s movements and shoot its aura as it gets closer so that you can prevent the attack while dealing damage to it.
Where To Find Scanner Locations
The last part of the quest will lead you to three scanner locations, which you can easily reach by following the main quest marker on your scale and keeping these instructions in mind:
- The first location will be in the open as you move a bit forward after defeating the mutant.
- For the second location, you’ll have to go through the gap in the wall to the left, defeat a few enemies, and enter the cave on the other side.
- As for the final location, you can exit the cave from the other side and you’ll find it in the middle of a few buildings at the location.
Once you place the scanner in the third location, the prologue and this quest will come to an end.
