Liouville first passage percolation (LFPP) with parameter $ξ>0$ is the family of random distance functions $\{D_h^ε\}_{ε>0}$ on the plane obtained by integrating $e^{ξh_ε}$ along paths, where $h_ε$ for $ε>0$ is a smooth mollification of the planar Gaussian free field. Previous work by Ding-Dubédat-Dunlap-Falconet and Gwynne-Miller has shown that there is a critical value $ξ_{\mathrm{crit}} > 0$ such that for $ξ< ξ_{\mathrm{crit}}$, LFPP converges under appropriate re-scaling to a random metric on the plane which induces the same topology as the Euclidean metric (the so-called $γ$-\emph{Liouville quantum gravity metric} for $γ= γ(ξ)\in (0,2)$). We show that for all $ξ> 0$, the LFPP metrics are tight with respect to the topology on lower semicontinuous functions. For $ξ> ξ_{\mathrm{crit}}$, every possible subsequential limit $D_h$ is a metric on the plane which does \emph{not} induce the Euclidean topology: rather, there is an uncountable, dense, Lebesgue measure-zero set of points $z\in\mathbb C $ such that $D_h(z,w) = \infty$ for every $w\in\mathbb C\setminus \{z\}$. We expect that these subsequential limiting metrics are related to Liouville quantum gravity with matter central charge in $(1,25)$.
