@ares42: Honestly, that actually feels right up Aloy's... Erm... Alley to me. And I feel like it was well earned. As a kid, yeah, she looked up to these people and wanted to join them. Now, there is still an element of that, but it is buried underneath a lot of resentment and pain.
Add to that (and you see this play out in other ways too) the focus that she has basically had since she started forming memories, and it teaching her about the world more than all of her "peers" learned about the world from a more religious and less "factual" basis.
And yeah, she quite often takes a nonchalant and honestly a little condescending tone to the people around her, because how can their worldview be so narrow?
One of the standout examples so far for me being "It's just a door!"
But it comes out in a lot of little ways, and I'm pleased that the writing treated it so well and that her voice actor was able to play to it.
Some of the other characters' writing and VO is more mixed, but I have been very impressed by Aloy.
