The chained door between fungal wastes and city of tears lift

[eternalreturn]

I have uploaded these screenshots because no one ever answers people who are clearly asking about this location. I am not asking about/requesting an alternate route. I know several alternate routes, quite well.

I want to know how to open this door:
West/left side

East/right side
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2885885328

I do *not* need to be told about this path. Check my masks, and my vessels: clearly, I have known, for some time, about the "official" ways in and out of the City of Tears.

i don't believe it's a door, although it resembles other doors.
i believe that's just considered architecture that is walling off the area from the elevator and city.
as far as i'm aware, there's no pathing through that at the least.

I've always considered it a chained-up door, but just one you can't open (believe me, I kept trying everything I could think of on my first playthrough). People have asked that before and gotten this same answer, btw.

It's just there for atmosphere, in relation to lore about (location) City of Tears, i.e. the fact that (story spoiler) all the paths in and out were locked due to the plague.

I wasn't too bothered by it, myself, but I encountered a map that specifically routed the path through that door. Unless someone tells me otherwise, I shall assume the person who published that map--or rather, the path through the map that took that route--to have been making stuff up they'd never played through. Annoying when folk do stuff like that.

Those aren’t real doors, don’t waste your time. I have never opened those ever because those cannot be opened.

Do you have a link to that map?

I'm no sure it's a good idea to give it oxygen, if you know what I mean
I'll DM it, if you want.

I'm half considering doing my ain and uploading in the community, here, but idk. I was more motivated to do that when I first posted this, from my frustration/aggravation, but am more in a Slay the Spire/Dyson Sphere Program mood the day

Thanks to the folk who responded, confirming what I thought: the chained door that would open to the lift in the City of Tears, from the Fungal Wastes, remains chained/blocked for the entirety of the game. I'll DM the link to the offending map if you drop a line, but I really do not want to direct traffic there, as it is false. The site design does not allow comments, or I'd have taken it up, there. The publish date is 10 September 2021.
