On Jowston Hill, there is a mysterious area....

Post by TheRatPGs »

Hey, you know when you're at the top of Jowston Hill where the conferences are held? Okay, well there's an area to the right of it that is always blocked off. Is that area EVER accessible? What's over there? Maybe it's a game designer's no-man's land....

I have no idea, and have wondered this myself... I always figured it was kind of like level 2 of the item shop in Suikoden 1 where they just didn't bother building maps for it...

Muse can be visited in end game but If I recall, you can't still go there. If you can go, I think guides will mention it...

I don't recall it being accessible at any point in the game.

Although, I do remember Flik coming from that direction when you had that conference and the guy outside didn't recognise Viktor, but did recognise Flik for his blue clothes.

I'm fairly certain I saw an account from a person who used a walk-through walls code to try to get past the roadblock/guards, and there's nothing there. It's hard to tell why they didn't design things so they could just put a wall there, or in most of the locations where there are mysterious barriers. Usually nobody asks "what's beyond that wall?". Well, as long as they can't see anything past it.

If I remember correctly there is literally nothing beyond any area that you can't reach cause they didn't bother drawing anything that wouldn't be seen. Like Milich's mansion isn't even fully drawn cause they never intended for you to be able to see it from anywhere but outside the wall so those bits are just black space.

It makes sense that there is genuinely nothing past point, there wouldnt be any point mapping out an area you will never see...

However, it does make for a very interesting observation. Because there *could* be something beyond there. Lookout post or something, so we can always speculate and even use our imagination :D

Actually, you can reach that area via the "Walk through walls" gameshark cheat. There's another structure there which looks like some kind of under-developed. I believe they were planning to put the Municipal or the Library there but it wasn't pushed through.
