* ''Series/{{BabylonFive}}'': The Vorlons are still around, but they had deliberately cultivated this trope by going around the galaxy and genetically altering species to be predisposed to react favorably when they saw a Vorlon (as well as [[TouchedByVorlons altering them to produce telepaths]]). The Vorlon Kosh revealing himself to the population of the station triggers a flood of religious pilgrims; and learning about the Vorlon's history of interfering with other species causes religious crises.

* ''VideoGame/HorizonForbiddenWest'': The Quen are a civilization that, unlike most of the rest of humanity, knows that the human race used to be far more technologically advanced and that they're living AfterTheEnd. Unfortunately, thanks to a bad case of FutureImperfect, they have a lot of misconceptions about [[spoiler:Project Zero Dawn, and revere the CorruptCorporateExecutive Ted Faro as humanity's savior, not the man responsible for its destruction who only worked with Project Zero Dawn in order to cover his ass]].

Since the Remnant 'bots tend to attack anyone who come near them, you can guess how that works out for them. Meanwhile, an unseen race is said to also have worshiped the Remnant, but with less directly fatal results, until the kett came along.

NeglectfulPrecursors are often [[StopWorshippingMe somewhat annoyed]] by them if they even bother to take notice. While BenevolentPrecursors sometimes set up cults before leaving, then are disgusted by what has become of their followers when they return. Often done with AncientAstronauts.
