If ever you kill a reaper leviathon, or get your character next to the skeleton of one, if at all you have a light source, you can kinda tell in-game using your shadow, or by having your character's hand next to the eye. It moreso gives you a relative range than an actual measurement, but it helps. It is really surreal realizing your character is only a fraction of what the reaper's entire horn is...
Hi, I’m a scuba diver. The dissonance in spatial recognition (seeing things as smaller than they are) when underwater is a thing. One time I saw a seahorse hanging on to a piece of coral. I initially thought it was the size of my pinky, but when I got close enough to compare, it was actually about the length of my hand.
@@charlezjenkinz9918 that, and it has to do with depth perception. Humans are used to walking on land - at our “true height” so to speak. When you’re suspended in water, your brain gets kinda confused. If you can see the ocean/pool floor, your mind subconsciously processes that as “well, I guess I’m just super tall now, and everything on the floor is small”.
@@mattuwu9978 Hey, so, I was always intersted in the flora and fauna underwater, and I wanted to be a marine biologist. How do one could be a scuba diver? Like, is there a university matter only for that? Thanks in advance, and the sea IS SO COOL
@@bialactea8963 My parents are friends with two scuba teachers, which is how I got lessons and a license. How you get a license depends on where you live. In the US, you can get lessons from an instructor certified by PADI (Professional Association of Diving). PADI is an international company as well, and operates in 186 countries.
Remember that Subnautica takes place on a dormant volcano. Which means that there are way bigger creatures out there. What if the microorganisms are the ghost leviathans?
Btw, to put the HUGE fossil into perspective, he said that the fossil was 1.3 kilometers long, sounds REALLY big right, yeah well, the aroura ship is 1.2 kilometers long. So we are looking at a creature that was once BIGGER than the aroura.
Just imagine if aurora landed and this creature suddenly come and destroy the whole ship. Ahh yes why they dont just add another version but this time its not about a virus its about killing this massive beast and escape the planet
Here's a terrifying idea. None of Alterra's scanners can actually identify in detail anything living in the Void past certain depths. Not only could there be living gargantuans, there could be other Leviathans yet to be discovered.
Or it could just be so deep you can't see it. If you had a scanner room at exactly 8192 meters, it could go to about 9000 before losing contact and then see to 9500. There could be a massive leviathan at 10000 meters down and you wouldn't know
@@susnoobing7048 The storyline actually hints at that. The part where we landed is like a tiny "island" of "shallow" water. As far as we know there is just endless depth around it. its logical to assume that these depths are filled with giant predators. The fact alone ghost leviathans have some kind of kindergarten hints that there are vulnerable in the void at this point.
It would be cool, but I think it’s for the best that they aren’t because everything would look weird, everything would be bigger but the rest of the world would be fit for small things, so they would look like they were going really fast. You can turn down your FOV to make them look bigger though.
Well I don’t think that it was meant to make them look smaller, rather the size we see them in is their true size but to make sure you can see the models from a distance and see the details they enlarge their true size to appear how the devs wanted them to appear
@@bestbread3446 I actually forgot what my reasoning was since I haven't seen that video in awhile, but I had a reason all right. Oh wait yeah I think maybe that it was poorly detailed and generally kind of crappy looking with those four tentacles coming straight out from the head looking real ungainly.
I was curious about it at first when I had first seen it,I thought it was friendly,went up to it with my seamoth,thing took my power out immediately,almost died cause there was a juvenile ghost around💀✋. Needless to say never went up to those mfs again
Hey crunch did you know that if you pick up enzyme 42 with a propulsion cannon and touch an infected creature the creature will be cured and the enzyme will disappear. Any way thought that was interesting, keep up the great work man!
the reason why understanding the size of object in subnautica is that there’s no third person and that it’s under water. The fact it’s under water and everything is floating create a huge problem for our spatial recognition, relativity and basis of measurement, it can’t proses the distance and size of a object. you know you are floating but your subconscious doesn’t know and spatial recognition is subconscious, it thinks your taller and things are farther away. This is actually a common thing with divers and especially astronauts. I remember that I read case about this dissolution that a astronaut was temporarily driven mad and thought object/people was growing and shrinking. He was cured weeks later with some therapy. Then the fact that we experience this through a screen amplifies this spatial dis-recognition sense we can even measure close up with our body. But, sense our subconscious knows it’s a screen and it’s fake, It won’t cause any irl problems.
That may be a thing but the reason this happens in game is just because the players view is enlarged, not sure why the developers did it but that's why creatures look smaller than they are. Also: Spacial* Sorry, I'm a grammar Nazi.
Really interesting info you got here. I appreciate the educated explanation on all this and just goes to show how easily our minds are tricked to the bigger picture of things
Amusingly, I started playing Subnautica in VR recently, I remember noticing the size of the bone sharks seeming bizzarely huge when I first saw them in VR. I'd played far in Desktop, the differences between VR and desktop really shows the size differences more noticably too, and its really wild.
I want to make a movie that has and old steampunk style but it’s futuristic like are time that is on a world that is mostly ocean and the oceans can be infinite or that’s what they appear to be
Subnautica VR probably has the best way in game to experience how massive each creature is. For some reason when actually looking through Riley's eyes, everything is way more massive. Even smaller plants like gel sacks are enormous in size compared to non vr perspective. For me personally, after experiencing the game in VR, I am able to see things closer to their "actual size".
I do remember me sitting in a seamoth and running away from a reaper, i jumped out of the air and did a 180 turn, i saw (in vr) the giant creature with its claws jump out of the water right behind me. I shat myself that day.
The reason we do that is because we have something to compare it to. Actually makes more sense saying four football fields long than 400 meters long. It gives you a better sense of scale.
@@spreademu1218 i would actually say that for me it's easier to visualize 400 meters than saying 4 football fields. I also don't know if you mean American or European.
@@tacticalpotato5665 I mean for most people, i do understand that some people prefer larger numbers but most of the friends I know and people on the internet have liked stuff that we see often to be used as a measurement.
Well to me everything looks small except the ghost Leviathan, Honestly because of that I'm always so surprised when I find out it's not the actual largest creature
@@doge_1234 Reaper Leviathan does 80 damage to the players, I'm not sure about Ghost's numbers but Sea Dragons instantly kills the player no matter how much health you have.
The reason they look small in 1st person is that the FOV is increased beyond real life. You can see this in the sea moth. The steering wheel of the sea moth looks only 6-8 inches wide, where steering wheels are typically 14-18 inches. Also, when you go into free cam, you can see that the visor is almost double the size you'd expect it to be. So a combination of the camera being twice as big as your eyes, and the fov making things look further smaller, is why things don't look big enough.
the fact that you are swiming further adds to this, as you can look at creatures from a lot of different heights so you can't compare them to your size
@@Jalen_Ramseys_Burner it would have moved in the void. And think about other pieces of the world. There are large spike structures in the dunes, grass plateus, and mountains that i believe were part of this creature. Other caves in the world could have been organs or veins, being able to support life for creatures down there. The blood kelp zone trench could be a large artery that passed near the digestive system of the lost river. After millions of years the bones have been surrounded by the land and given the world its shape. The world is like this because this creature died on a large underwater mountain, where slowly rocks formed around its bones and other creatures were attracted to its flesh. Over many millions of years a comples ecosystem developed around the body. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk
Fun fact: the space needle is actually one of the shorter high rise structures in Seattle, often filmed and photographed at an angle to appear as though it dominates the Seattle skyline
@@heavyweaponsscout9990 doesn't matter. this game is fantastic but i'm absolutley terrified of the ocean. if you have a phobia of the deep sea, this game triggers it quick.
@@elijahpoe5 im afraid of absolute dark, not the sea. So when i dived deeper into the abyss, i felt a little nervous, not scared. I still dont understand why people could fear the sea, specially only the animals and not water itself.
@@heavyweaponsscout9990 I think one reason why i freak the fuck out is just the seemingly infinite abyss in pictures of the ocean. The thought that us humans only know a small percentage of what life actually exists in the ocean. just creepy.
@@elijahpoe5 for me its actually an exciting aspect, also, sea critters aint gonna hurt you unless you come looking for it. Except salt water crocodiles. They just dont give a fuck.
There are a total of 25 Reapers within the Crater, so if you managed to stack em up and put them side to side with the Gargantuan Leviathan, i they would barrely be able to surpass it in length.
This is actually false because not only is the skeleton of the Gargantuan Leviathan only a 3rd of the whole thing but it's also not even an adult so actual adult Gargantuans are way larger
Moral of the story: Everything in subnautica is freaking huge, Edit: OMG THANK YOU GUYS SO MCUH ❤️👌❤️👌 just kidding. Still, thank you guys, I never had this much likes ever.
*For freedom loving Americans:* Gargantuan Leviathan is about 4300 feet or slightly less than a mile long. (0.8) It's almost as long as my *[Redacted]*
For 'Americans' perhaps you meant 'United States.' Majority of Americans (nearly 70%) -- Canada, all Central & South America, Mexico -- use Metric. Nous defions. ;)
You can tell from when you're holding the fish, that subnautica made the creature models bigger than they actually are meant to be, because it's hard to tell size at the distances used in games.
@@AmarEcd1233 Like, ever since the revolutionary war? We kinda betrayed them and just took there help without payment so...yes were kinda hated and to ur second question, It was invented and first used by the french and just cus other countries use it doesn't mean it isn't french!
The revelation of the current Leviathans being basically puppies when compared to their ancient ones was absolutely horrifying to me. I love this game, but it just toys with my thalassophobia to an insane degree.
Same, I’m watching playthrough and it gives me such huge anxiety watching how the player is going super deep, especially when it’s dark, I have kinda same phobia of space, I guess just huge and dark places (?) cuz you don’t know what’s there 😅
There was actually a pretty funny glitch with Floaters at one point where they’d get stuck on your head, or rather your head would be engulfed by it, which like you said, was pretty shocking to the players it happened to.
Awesomecrunch: Imagine a leech the size of your arm latching onto your arm and sucking all the blood out. Korra after fighting Toph had a leech that big on her elbow
Entering the abandon base thats underneath the floating island in the grand reef gives you a pretty good idea how big the crab squids are when you notice that one is peering in at you from Outside. The thing is huge.
Planet 47192A I don't remember its nickname but it's a ocean planet with waters 3000 meters deep at the points we know of...thing is the only oxygen is in the water so creatures living there? Uhh maybe not but theres a ocean planet...
I still say they need to add a BIG leviathan into the void. Once you get past the Ghost Leviathans, the last thing you see is just a mouth slowly coming up from the void, before it closes around you and whatever vehicle you are using cutting the screen to black.
10:34 When you realize those are basically slightly smaller versions of a specific kind of earth crab from the sea. I think they are called spider crabs.
That’s pretty cool. As someone who has never played Subnautica, I always thought the reapers weren’t much bigger than a truck. It’s cool that the animals are actually way more alien and diverse than that.
"and it's about the length of 43 blue whales which are the longest creatures on the planet..other than Siphonophores but we don't talk about them" Siphonophores are one of my favorite creatures and this made me snort so loud
I heard this (memory is a bit fuzzy, so maybe it‘s a bit inaccurate), but basically unknown worlds had to size every creature up by a ton because of how the perspective of the player worked, like the camera through which the player sees. And that results in conflicting measurements and such when using PDA data vs measuring yourself. I think that also plays into how everything is so surprisingly big when compared to the player model.
Can we talk about how this video has 679k Views and he has exactly 67,9k subscribers right now? Although being quite ironic, I'd really like to see that number go up. Dude's creating really good content and I think he deserves a few more subscribers.
Part of the problem is that you have third dimensional movement, meaning you are generally looking things in the eye or floating above them. It's an instinctive position to take as it feels safer. That throws our sense of scale off since we can't just do that naturally. In our brains if we're above something it registers as small. The blood crawlers are a good example if you actually get next to one and force yourself to stand on the floor like them, you'll suddenly be looking up at them and realize they tower over you. That goes for most things in the game. Look up at them from the ocean floor instead of head on or from above and they will suddenly seem much, much larger to you. The other problem is that first person video game cameras ALWAYS make things look smaller. Always, without fail. Everything you've ever seen in a video game from a first person perspective is bigger then you think it is. You see it in Ark Survival Evolved as well, but the inclusion of other players can give you a jarring wake up call about what you're looking at. Most creatures in Ark seem realistically sized until you see another player standing near them. Then you realize a six foot tall player model barely reaches a T-Rex's ankle for example.
When you think about it the skeleton super leviathans and sea dragons and probably much bigger creatures live deeper in the void. Dang subnautica nature you scary.

Based on the characters reach when attacking the creatures I'd say it's reasonable to believe that the comparison model is actually smaller than it should be rather than every single thing in th game is bigger than it seems.
I would absolutely love to see the living gargantuan leviathan. If some update of the game per say generated some in the void if you went far enough or like instead of generating it have a cutscene
As much as I absolutely adore this game, and believe it to be a masterpiece, I always felt like the one thing that it didn't quite manage to perfect was giving the player an accurate feel for how gigantic the marine life is. Unless you're fortunate to own a VR headset, it just doesn't really give the same impact as a game like Shadow of the Colossus or Monster Hunter or the Divine Beasts from BotW. And this video kinda proves that it comes down to how, in those games, you're able to see your player's size compared to the creatures. On top of that, the game takes place totally underwater, so the creatures are literally very 'floaty' physics-wise; they can't give the same amount of weight or impact on the ground as the creatures in those other games; and I feel like this factor kinda worked against the developers, to no fault of their own. So, I think the only way they could've remedied this skewed perspective - moreso than just being able to adjust your field-of-view ratio - is to have the option to switch between a first-person and third-person camera; instead of just making the player model accessible through the cheat menu, which to some degree breaks your immersion.
@@Awesomecrunch Right? I was like "Wow, he did that?" It was the top section that connects the two sides Also, ever want to see a real car look like a toy car? Go to the top of the arch and look down. It's pretty freaky, both the ride up to the top and being in the top.
The "sea emperor" is a nod to the ocean emperor in Alien Planet - while the AP alien walker strode across a gel sea of microorganisms, this one (which is very similar too it) swims underwater.

It’s weird how in subnautica, everything is much smaller in first person
Well to me everything looks small except the ghost Leviathan, Honestly because of that I'm always so surprised when I find out it's not the actual largest creature
It's a problem with the FOV I believe.
Gαtt yes
Remember,ghost leviathan give 50 points of damage and sea dragon gives 75,rember this
@@doge_1234 Reaper Leviathan does 80 damage to the players, I'm not sure about Ghost's numbers but Sea Dragons instantly kills the player no matter how much health you have.
The reason they look small in 1st person is that the FOV is increased beyond real life.
You can see this in the sea moth. The steering wheel of the sea moth looks only 6-8 inches wide, where steering wheels are typically 14-18 inches.
Also, when you go into free cam, you can see that the visor is almost double the size you'd expect it to be.
So a combination of the camera being twice as big as your eyes, and the fov making things look further smaller, is why things don't look big enough.
the fact that you are swiming further adds to this, as you can look at creatures from a lot of different heights so you can't compare them to your size
21:30 I just love that scene with the ghost leviathan being dwarfed by the skull of the gargantuan leviathan it's really damn scary
And heres something that will scare you even more: the lost river is the intestine of the creature that ate the gargantuan
@@burntchicken9411 no way there wouldn’t be enough room for it to move on the world
@@Jalen_Ramseys_Burner it would have moved in the void. And think about other pieces of the world. There are large spike structures in the dunes, grass plateus, and mountains that i believe were part of this creature. Other caves in the world could have been organs or veins, being able to support life for creatures down there. The blood kelp zone trench could be a large artery that passed near the digestive system of the lost river. After millions of years the bones have been surrounded by the land and given the world its shape. The world is like this because this creature died on a large underwater mountain, where slowly rocks formed around its bones and other creatures were attracted to its flesh. Over many millions of years a comples ecosystem developed around the body. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk

"The Eye of the Eye-eye, which is the main feature of the creature"
Nice going there, baws.
There are a total of 25 Reapers within the Crater, so if you managed to stack em up and put them side to side with the Gargantuan Leviathan, i they would barrely be able to surpass it in length.
Wow
So, in other words, “this thing is roughly the size of the entire Reaper population.”
Are you taking into consideration that the bones in the lost river is about a 3rd of the leviathan
This is actually false because not only is the skeleton of the Gargantuan Leviathan only a 3rd of the whole thing but it's also not even an adult so actual adult Gargantuans are way larger
If the skeleton in the lost river is only a juvenile than a adult could be a few moments of swallowing you and you wouldn't even know

@Cameron Will I just hope there is a glitch in the simulation so that I can get shotgun shells that way and sell them
You can tell from when you're holding the fish, that subnautica made the creature models bigger than they actually are meant to be, because it's hard to tell size at the distances used in games.
17:24 and now, please add football fields for germans, as measure comparison ;)
Hahaha if I did comparisons for every nationality I'd be here all day 😅 thanks for watching :)
You can take the length in meters and divide by 100... so the Gargantuan leviathan is 13 football fields long.

I still say they need to add a BIG leviathan into the void. Once you get past the Ghost Leviathans, the last thing you see is just a mouth slowly coming up from the void, before it closes around you and whatever vehicle you are using cutting the screen to black.

12:37 perfectly cut scream XD
AAAA-
I heard this (memory is a bit fuzzy, so maybe it‘s a bit inaccurate), but basically unknown worlds had to size every creature up by a ton because of how the perspective of the player worked, like the camera through which the player sees. And that results in conflicting measurements and such when using PDA data vs measuring yourself. I think that also plays into how everything is so surprisingly big when compared to the player model.
Plot Twist: Riley is the one who is tiny
I honestly thought those crash fish were like tennis ball-sized!

Hah, one thousand. No.
Thirty three thousand, take it or leave it.
"About the same length as seven Rileys"
That sounds pretty American.
Part of the problem is that you have third dimensional movement, meaning you are generally looking things in the eye or floating above them. It's an instinctive position to take as it feels safer. That throws our sense of scale off since we can't just do that naturally. In our brains if we're above something it registers as small. The blood crawlers are a good example if you actually get next to one and force yourself to stand on the floor like them, you'll suddenly be looking up at them and realize they tower over you. That goes for most things in the game. Look up at them from the ocean floor instead of head on or from above and they will suddenly seem much, much larger to you.
The other problem is that first person video game cameras ALWAYS make things look smaller. Always, without fail. Everything you've ever seen in a video game from a first person perspective is bigger then you think it is. You see it in Ark Survival Evolved as well, but the inclusion of other players can give you a jarring wake up call about what you're looking at. Most creatures in Ark seem realistically sized until you see another player standing near them. Then you realize a six foot tall player model barely reaches a T-Rex's ankle for example.
I'm just looking out my apartment window and just imaging those huge creatures swim by
When you think about it the skeleton super leviathans and sea dragons and probably much bigger creatures live deeper in the void. Dang subnautica nature you scary.

I would absolutely love to see the living gargantuan leviathan. If some update of the game per say generated some in the void if you went far enough or like instead of generating it have a cutscene
I know this is an old comment, but there are some Subnautica mods where they added the gargantuan leviathan.
I always wished that creatures were absolutely massive in subnautica. I guess they were all along.
As much as I absolutely adore this game, and believe it to be a masterpiece, I always felt like the one thing that it didn't quite manage to perfect was giving the player an accurate feel for how gigantic the marine life is. Unless you're fortunate to own a VR headset, it just doesn't really give the same impact as a game like Shadow of the Colossus or Monster Hunter or the Divine Beasts from BotW. And this video kinda proves that it comes down to how, in those games, you're able to see your player's size compared to the creatures.
On top of that, the game takes place totally underwater, so the creatures are literally very 'floaty' physics-wise; they can't give the same amount of weight or impact on the ground as the creatures in those other games; and I feel like this factor kinda worked against the developers, to no fault of their own.
So, I think the only way they could've remedied this skewed perspective - moreso than just being able to adjust your field-of-view ratio - is to have the option to switch between a first-person and third-person camera; instead of just making the player model accessible through the cheat menu, which to some degree breaks your immersion.
It's Saint Lou-is. Louis. Also, my grandfather (who died when he was in his late 90s) helped build it, in the 1920s and such.
