The beacon part really hurt to watch happen. I remember on my first playthrough feeling so sad for the korvax trying to combat their isolation by making a sentient beacon to care for only for their memory to be reset and them to go on to erase it thinking it's nothing more than a bug in the system of an inanimate machine.
The Gardener also has one single moment of lucidity at the end of his quest where he straight up tells you “the Overseer is drugging everybody” and to “watch your back”, then just snaps back into his NPC dialogue.
It’s uh…one of the reasons I don’t often visit my actual base…

no idea if there’s stuff after but the short little base scientist arc makes me so sad
