It is not uncommon for the ancient civilization to be completely extinct. The Chozofrom the Metroid series are an example of an ancient advanced civilization that produced technology, although they just went into hiding, instead of dying out. Most commonly, these large ancient derelicts are likely found by accident and as the story progresses, the main character(s) usually unlock a special ability.
