    Title: Vikland - I can bypass a door by jumping up the rocks and over the wall
    Reproduction Rate: 100%
    Blocker? no
    Details: for the door at this location (275.477, 135.704, 218.532), i can bypass the door by jumping up the mountain and getting to the rocks at this location: 217.7, 155.7, 173.0, then i can jump on top of the wall and over to the other side. So, i can effectively bypass that gate.

    Addendum: I can also bypass the gate by jumping on the the rocks on the opposite side of the valley. In this case, The path i took to get over the gate is shown in red below (dotted line is when i ran behind the rocks).

    I love that you found this alternate route. :) It's acceptable and anticipated player behavior.

    Think of it this way: Even though the valley's central gate has a crystal lock, it's not required that everyone who wants to pass through it consume a crystal to unlock it. For example, I can use my crystal to unlock it and you can follow me through the threshold "for free." The fact that you were able to mountain goat your way across the cliffs and hop onto (and over) the wall is not a problem for me in this case.

    Of course, I ask that you continue reporting situations like this because sometimes I *don't* want you bypassing that locked gate and I'd have to make changes.This is a great report, but it turns out that it's acceptable gameplay.
