Talk:Venus Lighthouse

Some unussual things abotu this lighthouse. One, where do the elevators go when you take them down (they aren't seen at the entrance)? Second, how did Felix return to the Aerie after (presumably) taking the elevator down? They only go one way right? Tzion 19:52, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Hmm. Well, we know that Isaac & Co. elevate themselves up to the aerie by jumping onto a small light-blue floating platform that floats up there to drop them off, and likely Saturos and Menardi and Sheba used this platform beforehand. And possibly after the Venus Lighthouse was lit, one of these light-blue platforms appeared again to transport people on the top of the lighthouse down to ground level, rather than the large-floored platforms normally associated with "lighthouse elevators" (those don't work with Venus and Mars Lighthouse, it seems). As for question 2, I think Felix originally saw Saturos, Menardi, and Sheba off as they took a light-blue platform ride to the top, and he and Alex were to lead Jenna and Kraden back down through the lighthouse to its frontal exit - no elevators for him there. And when the four got to that "exit area" of Venus Lighthouse, Felix got his idea to confront his masters, and went back and backtracked all the way up through the lighthouse again, and maybe found some other light-blue platform that took him up to the aerie from the left side (this theoretical "other" platform ride I made up would not be visible to the player as a result of gameplay and story segregation). Just my thoughts, there's plenty of instances throughout the games where obstacles to the player's party are present in gameplay terms only and would not have been the same obstacles to the opposing party in story terms (Saturos' group can cross through Lamakan Desert without the story need to use Reveal, while you need to cross through Lamakan Desert with the gameplay need of Reveal).
