There's nothing quite as scary as playing Subnautica for the first time and hearing "Warning: Now entering ecological dead zone. Adding report to databank."
I've watched a lot of subnautica videos and i know many of the location of the reapers.. everytime i need to go to the place that has reapers roaming there i always put my headphone down so i dont get jumpscared XD
It's scarier when you're in a Prawn suit when you first visit the void. Especially if you don't have any grapples and you just see the edge. Totally didn't lose my first Prawn suit to the void.
@@Zzz-dt2dl yeah I think it’s because the dunes has like 4 or 5 reapers at once and it’s 1 of 2 places you can get the drill arm fragments. The void has nothing and there isn’t a reason to go there unless you want to scan the big Ghost Leviathan
Subnautica’s story is pretty tragic. Ryley, a crew member on the Aurora is forced to survive on his own after everyone he got to know on the ship were killed before he woke up in his escape pod, not to mention he is constantly being terrorized by giant sea creatures and a deadly sickness killing him from the inside.
And also, everything he scans and makes is monitered by alterra pda, so if he makes something using rare resources, they increase his debt because they say those resources are alterra property. 1 trillion debt
@@ReSpark141 That's why I never ended the game and lived in the planet forever I don't want Ryley to waste his life on paying the debts living on the planet is several times better. If they still try to infiltrate the planet then I would activate the deadly laser
There were apparently several survivors in other life pods by the time Ryley woke up. He gets two messages on the radio that managed to get the Warpers communicating with each other. The first one is the Warpers mentioning newly infected lifeforms they’re hunting. The second message received a fair amount of time later they mention they’ve eliminated all but one.
@Alec Georgiev consider yourself lucky, I was once right next to the gun island and I saw a red dot on my cyclops sonar, I thought it was a warper so I checked my cameras, looked down and saw a reaper charging at the screen😂
One time when I was in early game, I tried to find the island with the multi purpose room, but accidentally went way past it, the Alexa lady told me I was entering an ecologically dead zone, and I started freaking out because of my experience with the Dead Sea from sea of thieves
The blood kelp forest is pure terror. I was exploring around life pod 19 until I came across the blood kelp forest. I was in my seamoth, travelling through the dark forest with creepy ambience. I had no idea Warpers could teleport you out of your vehicle. I jumped when my screen turned white and I wasn’t in my vehicle anymore. I got in my seamoth and drove outta there. This game was amazing.
I explored blood kelp and I just saw one warper and the ghost leviathan inmediatly I saved and went to view closer the leviathan, and that was my firsr die😉
I was playing subnautica while watching this video and I went to the blood kelp trench. I was exploring when I saw a warmer and quit the game. Then I went back in, and the Warper was gone, and I kept exploring until I accidentally found the dunes. I paused the game and prepared to quit, and I accidentally pressed save. 💀

@@minecraft6829 Just stay under the big jellyshrooms . In mid game , 1 statis gun shot + 10 hacks with your fire knife will demolish the crabsnake . I have my base right inside the jellyshroom cave lol .
Ok, some thoughts of mine on what it's going to be. - Blood kelp zone; - the Void; - (Deep) Grand Reef; - Lost River; - Inactive lava zone - Lava Lakes - Underwater Islands - Dunes - Crash zone - the Mountains
Ok, question. What's the difference between the Grand Reef and the Deep Grand Reef? I started playing a while ago and haven't really gotten super deep yet.
@@a-wild-goose deep grand reef is particularly darker and dangerous. The glowing bulb structure are less dense in the sparse reef (or not-so-deep grand reef) and they are not so dark. But as you go deeper into the deep grand reef, you'll start getting lost. Place becomes darker, you'll encounter more hostile creatures and only light there will be those bulbs since it's all inside a cave. If you want me to spoil where is the sparse reef and deep grand reef: 1.3 kilometres south west of lifepod, you'll find the floating island. As soon as you encounter this island, dive straight down. You'll find sparse reef pretty easily. Keep moving through this biome as it gets deeper and into a cave: the deep grand reef.
For me, the open biomes are way scarier than the cave biomes. Something about looking up and seeing hundreds of meters of dark emptiness is a lot more terrifying that seeing a rock ceiling.
“The pet store is filled with many terrifying creatures, for example the dreaded guinea pig which crunches through lettuce like a chainsaw. Another thing is the golden retriever. It will jump onto you and lick you repeatedly” he could make THAT sound scary.
I was fighting (and winning) the two Ghost Leviathans in the void. Had them both almost dead, when a third one showed up and jumped me from behind. Found out later that the game auto-spawns a new one every 30 seconds. Dirty cheaters! LOL.
They are mortal. However incredibly durable, with the reaper leviathan (the one with the LOWEST hp) having 5000 points. However killing them is debatably worth it, as long as you're not in an area like the void where they respawn (I think there's one other but I cannot recall so don't quote me on that) they are permanently gone, meaning one less threat in the water while exploring. Edit: in case anyone is curious, a stalker in comparison has 300 health, so imagine having to kill 18 and two thirds of them.
In my opinion the dunes are the #1 scariest biome in the entire game. just the incredibly deep ocean with vast emptiness and very creepy music. And then you hear a loud roaring sound
I didn’t know what the dead zone was and my first thought was “well it’s a dead zone so there’s probably no life here” instantly gets killed by a ghost leviathan
Sometimes when i look at the deep ocean.I ask myself: Is this really the 95 percent of the ocean that is undiscovered…there could be creatures like reeper levithians down there…
I'm sorry but there is nothing, in the abyss, all animals there are very little because there isn't a lot food and also a bigger body would means more cold and pressure to sustain
@@Sardonic_sardine Nono it's a not, a real leviathan class can't survive there, something big like a whale would need to eat at least 3500kg and would die for the extreme pressure, if there's something there, is something of really tiny
@@Sardonic_sardine Dude seriously if you go into the Mariannes trench you will not find anything, I'm talking about the abyss, many biologist will tell you the same thing, there's nothing big there like a reaper leviathan, the original comment was about that
Edit: TLDR. This is my most liked comment btw and it's kind of embarrassing lmao You went down the Crater edge with a seamoth, while I FELL down the edge in a prawn suit! Got to 800 m and decided it wasn't worth it and began to grapple back up. Halfway, I heard a sound and looked out into the darkness and all I saw was a massive ghost leviathan coming directly at me while screaming at me at the same time. Safe to say I nearly straight up jumped through the ceiling of my house! D: I've played a lot of horror games and they fail to do what Subnautica does. If you didn't know, horror and terror are different things. Horror being the feeling you get after seeing something scary, and terror being more of an anticipation for something scary happening. For example, in Alien Isolation, you have a fear of the alien, because you know it's there, and it will kill you. In Subnautica, you have a fear of your own imagination, not knowing what could rise from out of the depths and drag you down. You literally scare yourself! You anticipate a monster rising from out of the darkness and that alone scares you. That is why when I look off the edge of the crater, I have a chill go down my spine, my imagination producing nightmares of huge beasts. At some points I'm expecting something to happen, but it doesn't. I definitely felt dread and anticipation for a jump scare of some sort while falling at fast speeds off the crater edge. A real life example of terror is when you pile clothes on a chair or something similar. In the dark, you might imagine it to be a figure of a person or monster, but it's just cloths. Happened to me many times. It's pretty relatable. I don't know why I typed up an essay, but it's late and I'm bored anyways. So yeah.. It's pretty cool how Subnautica does it.
"The dunes is a deceptively quiet and tranquil biome' The actual game as soon as you enter the dunes: "Detecting multiple leviathan class lifeforms in the region. Are you certain whatever you're doing is worth it?"
8:00 you know what’s really scary about this bit? it’s real, you can actually find places like this on earth but it’s not gas as you mistakenly keep calling it, it’s water that’s heavier than the water above it due to its salt content making it look like it’s layered and the reason it’s so damaging to us in game is the same as in real life, these streams rivers and pools tend to be extremely alkaline so they burn the skin and unlike the water above them they have little to no oxygen meaning that even the fish suffocate if they enter it. It’s one of the meny wonders about our own planet that we know so little about, we have explored more of the surface of the moon than we have our own planet and when you consider some of the tall tales, storys and myths about our own planet you would think that we should really get on that. So just the other day I was listening to a story recounted buy a Vietnam war vet that claimed that while in a helicopter he witnessed a snake in the the jungles that had a head that was about 15ft wide claiming that it’s body must have been 100ft long, now even if he was exaggerating and it was half that size bloody hell is that a massive beast even if we shrink it down by half again that’s still a snake with a head that’s 3 to 4 ft across if it’s not just a tall tail (others have claimed to see similar things) I most definitely wouldn’t want to find one of these snakes. It’s one of the things that’s so interesting about this game almost all the locations in it can be found here on earth in one form or another (minus the alien research stations I hope) it’s all here and quite real even if most of it is to dangerous to me explored with the tech we have on hand in today’s world.
A deep location I personally recommend for late game exploration, is the phantom tree grove. A very peaceful place with the only real threat being the brine at the bottom inside the trenches.
I also made a base alongside the Ghost tree, except the heavier waters aren’t actually toxic, unlike the green ones that can actually hurt you, for some reason the blue one is harmless.
I think the scariest bit for me was actually being near the surface over open ocean. The closer I was to the bottom, the cozier I felt. I loved the lava zone because combined with the cyclops being a base in the area just above the lava zone and the prawn suit's grappling arm and boosters. I would swing off of the ghost leviathan in the river area and the big leviathan down in the lava zone. The only creature I feared was warpers because they were annoying.
I have thalassophobia and this game just makes my anxiety go through the roof. Just think about the player. You crash landed on a dangerous but beautiful planet filled with Alien life forms. The thing that haunts me the most is the unknown. Not knowing anything about the things that lurk in the ocean.
Very few locations in the game frighten me, because most at least have some illumination and geographical features. The Void, however? The fact that it, without warning, takes a steep drop into nothing is truly terrifying.
the music in blood kelp zone is by far the scariest for me. It's just a quiet atmosphere at first, but then it hits with a loud sound like something scary is about to happen.
I think, in a way, all of the biomes are creepy, but are better than whatever lies beyond the Crater's Edge. It scares me to think about just how fortunate the player is to have the Aurora crash into the volcanic crater where the game takes place, since anything beyond or further from what is a dead zone
One time I saw an outline of reaper and I actually started to sweat and my body was heating up and another time I saw a ghost and I was like okay ima just swim right on by if that’s ok with you mr.ghost
i remember chilling and casually exploring with my seamoth and suddenly hearing "warning, multiple leviathan class lifeforms detected. are you sure whatever you're doing is worth it?" and being terrified and just immediately backing up
I was never scared by the lava zones. It was kinda like “oh look, there a swimming lizard thing, that’s cool” and “oh look, there’s a giant octopus dragon”
I discovered i have thalassophobia ppaying this game. I hadn't seen it or heard anything about it going in. It might be my fav game all time. The intense trepidation of going into new biomes, the first seeing a warper so deep, the first reaper roar in mirky water - so many 😳 moments. Those early days when you scramble to get back to the pod at night. Such an amazing game.
And theres some super Good submarine stronger than cyclops. It's like Cyclops and PRAWN in one but You need these two to build this big one. Like, the PRAWN and the Cyclops need to be near and when you start building the big one these two disappear to form it
Amazing idea actually. Imagine the atmosphere, the tension. I wish Subnautica 3 is like this, feeling nervous and alone once again. Terror, fear of the unknown, is worse than horror, fear of the scary thing in front of you.
if you keep going on at the edge you end up below the map. it is really scary when you think of falling through the map [normally where you would see the below the map] happening any moment.
The Aurora was sent out to the Ariadne Arm to construct a phasegate, it did have an auxiliary mission to take surface scans of 4546B to seek out the Degasi crew, but that wasn't the primary target of the mission.
A few things I'd like to point out: -Exploring the Jellyshroom Cave Degasi base is not necessary to complete the game, as that storyline is purely optional. -The rivers in the Lost River are composed of a corrosive brine, not a toxic gas, and it's burns you like acid which is what causes the damage. -The Lost River starts out at around 600m, not 450. -Reapers don't kill you in one bite unless your health is at 80 or below. All that aside though, great video!
I’ve been playing subnautica for well over two years, and there are still plenty of biomes I have yet to fully explore. I’ll go to them, look around for a few minutes and get way too scared lol
Fun Fact: The Crater Edge used to level off at 3000 meters, providing a place to build a small base to observe the leviathans but I believe this has been removed. The terrain on the side also stops generating at about 3040 meters due to how the game is programmed.
My first death was in the Crash Zone - after braving the radiation, I was about to head home and get some medkits when a Reaper snuck up behind me and treated me to the scariest death in the game. Needless to say, I stayed away from the Aurora for a while after that.
When I went to the lava lakes I saw the Sea Dragons and they didn’t pay me any mind so I thought they were passive- well on my second play through 2 weeks later I came across them and they started firing at me to which I yell “Wait the sea dragons are hostile???-“ to my friend- and she says “….Sea. DRAGONS. Of course they’re hostile!-“
"Oh. I'll just check it out over there." "Oh my, it's really difficult to see around here. Dark on one side, sandy on the other." "Holyfuckwhatwasthatsound"
The problem in the Lost River isn't actually a gas, but a corrosive liquid that is denser than water, thus the appearance of rivers. Regardless, a great video about arguably my favourite game of all time.
I keep fear-quitting Subnautica and yet I don't think the Lost River is that bad. The ghost leviathans creep me out, but they're easily visible and the tunnels are much more cramped. Vast open sea with low visibility is usually what gets me.
I made my first base at the end of the safe zone near the crag fields, So I found my first leviathans,Reefbacks,easy. And I found crag fields then turned right around and left only coming back after finding out there aren’t leviathan Then I explored it. On the way back I see a hole under my base and...you guessed it,there’s mushroom cave.
I mostly play on Creative Mode when I play Subnautica, but it’s still just as terrifying as it is playing Survival. I haven’t gathered the guts to go to the ecological Deadzone yet.
The blood kelp zone was never really that scary to me. If anything I was relieved to see it bc it meant I didnt overshoot and end up in reaper territory or the dead zone.
Wow I have played a lot of subnatica and I just want to say, you are VERY good at making things sound scarier than then really are, and I don’t mean that in a bad was.
7:55, don't want to sound like "That Guy" but that isn't toxic gas, we're underwater, that's brine. Proof is that we have an O2 meter to show our remaining air, it doesn't drain when we're in it. The ratio of salt in the water makes it incapable of sustaining life for fish (Quick note, water and brine don't mix, just like water and oil, that's why creatures can live around the brine as seen, they just can't inside it), but that doesn't really explain why it's acidic to the player, best guess, that brine was formed some other way, maybe runoff from all the withering alien tech caused it to be acidic.
Brine is a highly concentrated saline solution, which causes toxic shock to almost all forms of life. Brine pools exist in the bottom of our own ocean, and they are just as creepy in real life. There's a species of eel that partially lives in it, but if they stay under too long, they loose control and their muscles and can drown in the brine. Real life science makes scary games spookier. This is a great video though.
5:45 after like 5 minutes in the blood kelp, your pda tells you "this biome contains 7 of the 9 preconditions for stimulating terror in humans"
It also can say that when you go to the ecological dead zone
@@loooom5414 That's the 9/9 one XD

bruh it was already out 1 year ago just wasn't full game
@@adamsurvival5188 my comment was posted 1 year ago. And I also meant the full game.
O ok sorry
Sometimes when i look at the deep ocean.I ask myself: Is this really the 95 percent of the ocean that is undiscovered…there could be creatures like reeper levithians down there…
Yeah, it’s amazing that humans only explored a very small portion of the ocean
I'm sorry but there is nothing, in the abyss, all animals there are very little because there isn't a lot food and also a bigger body would means more cold and pressure to sustain
@@Sardonic_sardine Nono it's a not, a real leviathan class can't survive there, something big like a whale would need to eat at least 3500kg and would die for the extreme pressure, if there's something there, is something of really tiny
@@Sardonic_sardine Dude seriously if you go into the Mariannes trench you will not find anything, I'm talking about the abyss, many biologist will tell you the same thing, there's nothing big there like a reaper leviathan, the original comment was about that
@@Sardonic_sardine Ah ok, I don't see the point but yes that's true, there's still something to discover
Edit: TLDR.
This is my most liked comment btw and it's kind of embarrassing lmao
You went down the Crater edge with a seamoth, while I FELL down the edge in a prawn suit! Got to 800 m and decided it wasn't worth it and began to grapple back up. Halfway, I heard a sound and looked out into the darkness and all I saw was a massive ghost leviathan coming directly at me while screaming at me at the same time. Safe to say I nearly straight up jumped through the ceiling of my house! D: I've played a lot of horror games and they fail to do what Subnautica does.
If you didn't know, horror and terror are different things. Horror being the feeling you get after seeing something scary, and terror being more of an anticipation for something scary happening. For example, in Alien Isolation, you have a fear of the alien, because you know it's there, and it will kill you. In Subnautica, you have a fear of your own imagination, not knowing what could rise from out of the depths and drag you down. You literally scare yourself! You anticipate a monster rising from out of the darkness and that alone scares you. That is why when I look off the edge of the crater, I have a chill go down my spine, my imagination producing nightmares of huge beasts. At some points I'm expecting something to happen, but it doesn't. I definitely felt dread and anticipation for a jump scare of some sort while falling at fast speeds off the crater edge.
A real life example of terror is when you pile clothes on a chair or something similar. In the dark, you might imagine it to be a figure of a person or monster, but it's just cloths. Happened to me many times. It's pretty relatable.
I don't know why I typed up an essay, but it's late and I'm bored anyways. So yeah..
It's pretty cool how Subnautica does it.
So I assume you watched the video.
Grogle 394 no shit sherlock
Ok dead meme name
Benjamin Sandhu Yep,I havent played it YET.But i can already say this is creepy as hell
This was a whole speech that I'm glad I read :D you summed up Subnautica so well
When your new to the game every location is scary

Even your house thing?
@@benwiens5199 yes, when it breaks
And just look at the real ocean,it's just as creepy as this.
Minus the leviathans
Thank god our leviathans like the blue whale aren't hunters like in the game
@@jottys3709 Ever heard of a colossal squid?
Emerald Black yeah just thought the largest animal to have ever existed would be a lot creepier if it hunted
@@the_egg_ You sure?
Jelly shroom caves are surprisingly fairly safe!! you may occasionally get attacked but its not often! One of my favorite spots!
"The dunes is a deceptively quiet and tranquil biome'
The actual game as soon as you enter the dunes: "Detecting multiple leviathan class lifeforms in the region. Are you certain whatever you're doing is worth it?"
Why has nobody else brought this up lol
He said “deceptively”
I only go to the Aurora when being accompanied by someone
I went to the side of it, the shallow area, and spent 2 HOURS making a land bridge to the walkway.
you're always accompanied when you go to the aurora (it's not good company)
bruh only thing scary bout that place is the reaper
You arent a true man until you go to the other side of the aurora
don't worry mr reaper will always be at the front of the aurora to give you a hug
8:00 you know what’s really scary about this bit? it’s real, you can actually find places like this on earth but it’s not gas as you mistakenly keep calling it, it’s water that’s heavier than the water above it due to its salt content making it look like it’s layered and the reason it’s so damaging to us in game is the same as in real life, these streams rivers and pools tend to be extremely alkaline so they burn the skin and unlike the water above them they have little to no oxygen meaning that even the fish suffocate if they enter it.
It’s one of the meny wonders about our own planet that we know so little about, we have explored more of the surface of the moon than we have our own planet and when you consider some of the tall tales, storys and myths about our own planet you would think that we should really get on that.
So just the other day I was listening to a story recounted buy a Vietnam war vet that claimed that while in a helicopter he witnessed a snake in the the jungles that had a head that was about 15ft wide claiming that it’s body must have been 100ft long, now even if he was exaggerating and it was half that size bloody hell is that a massive beast even if we shrink it down by half again that’s still a snake with a head that’s 3 to 4 ft across if it’s not just a tall tail (others have claimed to see similar things) I most definitely wouldn’t want to find one of these snakes.
It’s one of the things that’s so interesting about this game almost all the locations in it can be found here on earth in one form or another (minus the alien research stations I hope) it’s all here and quite real even if most of it is to dangerous to me explored with the tech we have on hand in today’s world.
A brine lake, example in media: the goo lagoon from spongebob
This deserves more likes 👌
A deep location I personally recommend for late game exploration, is the phantom tree grove. A very peaceful place with the only real threat being the brine at the bottom inside the trenches.
I also made a base alongside the Ghost tree, except the heavier waters aren’t actually toxic, unlike the green ones that can actually hurt you, for some reason the blue one is harmless.
@@bonelesschickennuggets1868 it’s because the blue brine is colder than the green brine
9:23 It would be kinda cool actually.
Your crazy
Same here i love it
that thing can eat a cyclops without chewing. ill pass on encountering that bastard
there’s a mod coming out soon
@@ThatPaleMexican same
I think the scariest bit for me was actually being near the surface over open ocean. The closer I was to the bottom, the cozier I felt. I loved the lava zone because combined with the cyclops being a base in the area just above the lava zone and the prawn suit's grappling arm and boosters. I would swing off of the ghost leviathan in the river area and the big leviathan down in the lava zone. The only creature I feared was warpers because they were annoying.
I have thalassophobia and this game just makes my anxiety go through the roof. Just think about the player. You crash landed on a dangerous but beautiful planet filled with Alien life forms. The thing that haunts me the most is the unknown. Not knowing anything about the things that lurk in the ocean.

Subnautica is such an interesting game full of interesting places and mystery.
Music in the game tells you that something can happen.
Do the Same with Subnautica: Below Zero!
Maybe when it fully realesed because there can be new biomes
Now I understand why Finn was scarried of the ocean.
That episode was so funny bro
#1 any cave when first starting out 2 words CRASH FISH just hearing their little raaaaah then you see it swimming at you terrifying
Very few locations in the game frighten me, because most at least have some illumination and geographical features.
The Void, however? The fact that it, without warning, takes a steep drop into nothing is truly terrifying.
I mean the subnauticas map is literally on an volcano and most of 4546b is the void
I’m just getting back into subnautica xD
Same
Yo same
Cool ... I already beat the game ... with all achievements... and tons of space for my base
I'm just getting into it in the first place
Gotta start somewhere
Same
the music in blood kelp zone is by far the scariest for me. It's just a quiet atmosphere at first, but then it hits with a loud sound like something scary is about to happen.
I think, in a way, all of the biomes are creepy, but are better than whatever lies beyond the Crater's Edge. It scares me to think about just how fortunate the player is to have the Aurora crash into the volcanic crater where the game takes place, since anything beyond or further from what is a dead zone
Everybody gangsta till you get your first ever warper message in the radio
Nothing was scarier to me then the precursor bases... always felt like something was going to walk up behind me in those desolate halls
I've Always felt safe in those bases ahahahaha
@@Dyley05 same I felt safer there than the lava outside
@@earlkentsucalit3301 everything looks safer than the lava zone, except the blood kelp one
Me with this game:
When I see a reaper leviathan:
Oh god RUN AWAYYYYYYY
when I see a goast leviathan :
This is normal.
I still hate reapers.
It's just the roar and the fact that they're in so many places that scares me
@Ambient Watcher -doom- Leviathan Slayer
One time I saw an outline of reaper and I actually started to sweat and my body was heating up and another time I saw a ghost and I was like okay ima just swim right on by if that’s ok with you mr.ghost
@Ambient Watcher *que in BFG Division*
Never played Subnautica but I always love creepy locations and your videos.
You should play it
I Came Upon This Channel completely by accident and I slowly started to watch his latest uploads and now I'm completely hooked on his content
i remember chilling and casually exploring with my seamoth and suddenly hearing "warning, multiple leviathan class lifeforms detected. are you sure whatever you're doing is worth it?" and being terrified and just immediately backing up
Same but it was to late for me
Nature is the scariest creepypasta to ever exist.
I was never scared by the lava zones. It was kinda like “oh look, there a swimming lizard thing, that’s cool” and “oh look, there’s a giant octopus dragon”
The most beautiful things in life are often the most dangerous
Me who just started playing subnautica yesterday: EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Good luck, buddy
welcome to 4546B, enjoy your *S T A Y*
There goes your life
I discovered i have thalassophobia ppaying this game. I hadn't seen it or heard anything about it going in. It might be my fav game all time. The intense trepidation of going into new biomes, the first seeing a warper so deep, the first reaper roar in mirky water - so many 😳 moments. Those early days when you scramble to get back to the pod at night. Such an amazing game.
I remember that when I played the game I got lost in the lost river location for the longest time
Guess thats why they call it the lost river
I got lost in the Lava zone for the longest time
SEEK FLUID INTAKE
GEE I WONDER WHY
OMLGPLAYER the sea dragon isn’t scary and subnaucita not scary its just half the creatures and it barely has light
Imagine if there was an area you had to reach by crossing over a certain area of the void
And theres some super Good submarine stronger than cyclops. It's like Cyclops and PRAWN in one but You need these two to build this big one. Like, the PRAWN and the Cyclops need to be near and when you start building the big one these two disappear to form it
Nty😭
Amazing idea actually. Imagine the atmosphere, the tension. I wish Subnautica 3 is like this, feeling nervous and alone once again. Terror, fear of the unknown, is worse than horror, fear of the scary thing in front of you.
if you keep going on at the edge you end up below the map. it is really scary when you think of falling through the map [normally where you would see the below the map] happening any moment.
The Aurora was sent out to the Ariadne Arm to construct a phasegate, it did have an auxiliary mission to take surface scans of 4546B to seek out the Degasi crew, but that wasn't the primary target of the mission.
Take a shot every time he says “teeming”
Thus is why isuck at swimming

I just got into Subnautica and i already LOVE it so much. Quite scary in some cases, but it's a damn beautiful game.
Would love to see a Subnautica game that takes place thousands of years back when all of those ancient skeletons were still alive
Gargantuan Leviathan (That HUUGE skeleton in Lost River): Hey, do You wanna your Cyclops to be eaten?
I HATE the jellyshroom caves. I was exploring the degasi base when a crabsnake just destroyed my seamoth with a depth module :(
Ooooof
That sucks, but I like the jellyshroom caves because you can actually see
This moment when you pass "Subnautica" 5 times and you're still scared about this places
A few things I'd like to point out:
-Exploring the Jellyshroom Cave Degasi base is not necessary to complete the game, as that storyline is purely optional.
-The rivers in the Lost River are composed of a corrosive brine, not a toxic gas, and it's burns you like acid which is what causes the damage.
-The Lost River starts out at around 600m, not 450.
-Reapers don't kill you in one bite unless your health is at 80 or below.
All that aside though, great video!
I’ve been playing subnautica for well over two years, and there are still plenty of biomes I have yet to fully explore. I’ll go to them, look around for a few minutes and get way too scared lol
I never thought I would never see the day Mike look at biomes
When I hear “ levaiathin life form detected “ I am not gonna go there no matter what
Fun Fact: The Crater Edge used to level off at 3000 meters, providing a place to build a small base to observe the leviathans but I believe this has been removed. The terrain on the side also stops generating at about 3040 meters due to how the game is programmed.
My first death was in the Crash Zone - after braving the radiation, I was about to head home and get some medkits when a Reaper snuck up behind me and treated me to the scariest death in the game.
Needless to say, I stayed away from the Aurora for a while after that.
I love how this whole video is like "You know what the scariest, creepiest, biome in Subnautica is? ALL OF THEM. lol
Divers: I love the underwater world
Sees subnautica: but that thing, it scares me
I love how this vid is literally like this area looks safe...but Reaper Leviathan
When you're so early you don't know what to say
I’m still impressed with Riley’s ability to be not crushed at depths below 900 meters….
When I went to the lava lakes I saw the Sea Dragons and they didn’t pay me any mind so I thought they were passive- well on my second play through 2 weeks later I came across them and they started firing at me to which I yell “Wait the sea dragons are hostile???-“ to my friend- and she says “….Sea. DRAGONS. Of course they’re hostile!-“
Your voice is sooooo calming
I love your content by the way
Dude your username is just like my brothers Xbox username, which is EnderSlayer962
Today we will looking at Subnauticas most dangerous and scariest biomes. *Proceeds to name every biome*
Superhorrorbro: **mentions the crash zone**
Every Subnautica player: **visible PTSD**
"Oh. I'll just check it out over there."
"Oh my, it's really difficult to see around here. Dark on one side, sandy on the other."
"Holyfuckwhatwasthatsound"
There is NO vídeo game more terrorific than subnautica, and you cant change my mind
Cool video. Just jumping into subnatica for the first time and it’s already terrifying.
Personally: having all that tech with me, instead of it being just me, is promising in itself.
The creepiest place is swimming somewhat at sea lvl and seeing nothing but water
Lets talk about the creepiest biomes in subnautica!
*Lists almost every biome*
The problem in the Lost River isn't actually a gas, but a corrosive liquid that is denser than water, thus the appearance of rivers. Regardless, a great video about arguably my favourite game of all time.
the river in the lost river biome is ton filled with a gas, you can swim in liqids but not in gasses the river is actually full of brine
Also noticed he said "breathe in the gas". Still a good video tho
I keep fear-quitting Subnautica and yet I don't think the Lost River is that bad. The ghost leviathans creep me out, but they're easily visible and the tunnels are much more cramped. Vast open sea with low visibility is usually what gets me.
I made my first base at the end of the safe zone near the crag fields,
So I found my first leviathans,Reefbacks,easy.
And I found crag fields then turned right around and left only coming back after finding out there aren’t leviathan
Then I explored it.
On the way back I see a hole under my base and...you guessed it,there’s mushroom cave.
I mostly play on Creative Mode when I play Subnautica, but it’s still just as terrifying as it is playing Survival. I haven’t gathered the guts to go to the ecological Deadzone yet.
I went down the dead zone with no sound on looking straight down and I mysteriously died
The first time I heard “warning, entering ecological dead zone” I was like “Oh cool! I wonder what’s down there!”
R.I.P Seamoth
The blood kelp zone was never really that scary to me. If anything I was relieved to see it bc it meant I didnt overshoot and end up in reaper territory or the dead zone.
Wow I have played a lot of subnatica and I just want to say, you are VERY good at making things sound scarier than then really are, and I don’t mean that in a bad was.
The jelly place I got there once soon as I got there I ran out as fast as I can.😱. A protecter never attack me I was good. Scary stuff.
his voice is so soothing. I wish he would do some vids on the Outlast and DLC Whistleblower; and also he'd be great for The Evil Within (2)
You really have the balls to make this video, you run into any leviathan with eas
This man has dealt with many horror games so he has the balls and then some to do it.
7:55, don't want to sound like "That Guy" but that isn't toxic gas, we're underwater, that's brine. Proof is that we have an O2 meter to show our remaining air, it doesn't drain when we're in it. The ratio of salt in the water makes it incapable of sustaining life for fish (Quick note, water and brine don't mix, just like water and oil, that's why creatures can live around the brine as seen, they just can't inside it), but that doesn't really explain why it's acidic to the player, best guess, that brine was formed some other way, maybe runoff from all the withering alien tech caused it to be acidic.
Brine is a highly concentrated saline solution, which causes toxic shock to almost all forms of life. Brine pools exist in the bottom of our own ocean, and they are just as creepy in real life. There's a species of eel that partially lives in it, but if they stay under too long, they loose control and their muscles and can drown in the brine.
Real life science makes scary games spookier. This is a great video though.
