[[WMG: APOLLO will cause problems]]
The first game mentioned that the finished version of APOLLO is not only a library of the sum total of human knowledge and culture the ZD team could save, but also a gamified learning algorithm: most of the knowledge locked off as part of a learning curve that gradually unlocks as the new generation of humanity learns, so they don't accidentally make a nuke and blow themselves up for example. Furthermore, in this game it is mentioned that the version of APOLLO that Far Zenith has is an unfinished alpha build that already has the database. What if the reason it's an alpha build is that it's missing most or all of the learning algorithm and the locks? That wouldn't be a problem for Far Zenith as they are Old World humans who are familiar with the knowledge and, for the most part (if we ignore their incredible hubris and arrogance), know what they are doing. On the other hand, the new world humans don't, and without the failsafes provided by the locks and learning algorithm, it is entirely possible that somebody perusing the database stumbles on something incredibly destructive that they don't understand but try to use anyway. Sylens springs to mind.

[[WMG: Vast Silver will appear and help GAIA & Aloy capture HEPHAESTUS]]
This is entirely possible, since Vast Silver was never confirmed to be captured or destroyed. It could mean the difference between victory and defeat.

[[WMG: Early in the game, Sylens will make a HeroicSacrifice]]
With his voice actor having tragically died, Sylens may be removed from the plot early, perhaps using the Far Zenith starship to make a kamikaze attack on Nemesis that doesn't destroy it but does manage to delay it long enough to give Team GAIA enough time to gather what they need to build a weapon to stop it once and for all.

* Rost was reported buried by Matriarch Leersa. However, despite him obviously being severely wounded, we don't ''see'' his body, and asking the Matriarchs to report him dead to Aloy would fit with his insistence on leaving her after she succeeds in the Proving.

Some people might learn of the Old Ones from Aloy, the others. However, some people are people who are going to oppose of what Aloy is doing. Many people who oppose Aloy from the first and second games, like Resh or Ulvund, are either going to claim falsehoods that Aloy is up to no good or band together to stop Aloy and her crew physically.

As noted on the FridgeBrilliance page on ''Zero Dawn,'' Aloy's upbringing as an Outcast has stunted some of her social skills and means that she's not inclined towards romance and possibly even sex itself. This could also be a plot point for Beta as she ''does'' have these inclinations and possibly gain a love interest of her own. Alternatively...

The first game concerned Aloy coming to realize that there's a bigger world outside and the responsibility of being a part of it; the second was learning from Elisabeth's mistake of not trusting people and being open with her friends. The third could have her take the natural next step and become open to romantic love, possibly with an established character like Talanah or an original introduced in the game.

[[WMG: Nemesis will be undone by a LogicBomb.]]
It's unlikely that the GreaterScopeVillain of this high-octane story would be undone by something as simple as an ArmorPiercingResponse, but it's been established that Nemesis is built from the collective uploaded minds of the Far Zenith colony, and it's been established that they were all selfish monsters who see themselves as gods with no lost love for the Earth or each other. Lock hundreds of people like that in a room and you'll no doubt get a free for all, and Nemesis is meant to be that room personified into a DigitalAbomination. Odds are it would be like The Terminals from ''VideoGame/NierAutomata'', where its incredibly saturated consciousness would develope an ideological schism and started attacking itself. In this case, Nemesis will suffer a similar crisis, and it will either give Aloy and her allies enough time to regroup and buy them time to find a way of putting it down for good, or they will exploit this as a part of their plan.

It's far from the cold Banuk lands... but Aratak has learned too much about the Old World from conversing with CYAN to really get along well with the [[AllHailTheGreatGodMickey primitively understanding]] Banuk shamans anymore. So he sets out to find Aloy again. Through him, he can relay to CYAN that GAIA is also benign and that CYAN can trust her connection requests. Some humor could be had from a burly alpine mountain man having to endure balmy warm coastal shores.

After running the numbers, Sylens and Beta determine that they won't be able to recapture HEPHAESTUS in the time they have left before the biosphere is unsalvagable even with the rogue machine-making AI brought to heel. So they decide to start crafting a substitute to give GAIA at least ''some'' machine manufacture/control know-how to get to work right away. Where would such a program be found to act as a code basis? A Horus. Sylens already knows his way around them and is the one investigating potential substitutes in the epilogue to begin with, so he'd be the main advocate. And with his newfound cooperativeness, he'd broach the subject with he Crew and make a compelling case. The previous GAIA succeeded in shutting them down before; the command authentication codes she forged with MINERVA passed muster before and the Faro Swarm has been shut down all this time so they couldn't scramble the codes. They reactivate it long enough to get what they need (resulting in it thrashing about a bit in the process) and then GAIA just deep-sixes it again with another shutdown order. If they fail to wrangle the titan... well, then it just hastens the inevitable anyway.
