@@moldylox OP could’ve been new to the channel and not aware who’s the editor(s). Mark also has three editors, not just Lixian, it’s not really a secret lol
lixian? so you are new im guessing.
I saw an interesting comment saying that when you take a picture of the giant eye, since that creature has been at such a low depth its whole life, you effectively flashbang it.
I saw that too! Can't remember what video though.
That might also be the reason it kills you, the flashbang could've just pissed it off enough to actually attack instead of just swimming around it.
@@torturedgaming7524 That makes me wonder about what would happen if you don't take a picture where the fish is supposed to appear.
Like, if the game is detailed enough to call out when you're going at it backwards, maybe it's detailed enough for it to recognize something like that?
@@torturedgaming7524 there two different creatures in the blood ocean. The eye is one giant reptilian one that can’t fit inside the submarine and the one with the gaping mouth fish you see once not attack you and then again at the end of the game attacking which can fit inside the submarine.
@@ratchit8122 I think it was the science vid on game theory? Might be wrong tho
If I'm not wrong, the jumpscare at the 'end' of the game is not triggered by going to any specific spot. It's triggered by how many photos you've taken of the important areas. You can explore in any order and you will always die on the way to the last photo.
@DONT READ PROFILE PIC nice try rick roller
@@Nobody-ue5qs mf replied to a bot calling it a "rickroller"
and also iirc it’s triggered by turning around
yes, that was fairly apparent, even not having seen this second playthrough. what was less apparent though pretty obvious thinking about it is that the blood leaking into your sub, the fire are both location based as opposed to progress based, which is interesting.
The jumpscare is trigger when you're facing the last photo and when turn around to take the photo it will jumpscare you.
The Quiet Rapture is a pretty terrifying concept. Imagine you wake up, only to find that most natural celestial objects are gone and you’re pretty much floating in a black void. It’s that quick.
But like, you spend a few hour not realizing because the phantom starlight is still there. Only when you try and contact someone you know on a planet or look where a planet SHOULD be do you discover the truth.
Either that, or you've been yeeted out of known space and are MUCH to far away to ever hope of finding your way back
it gets even more terrifying when you remember that the blood oceans are in fact human blood
So Whatever happened to earth, while not known, seems to have been a bloody massacre that somehow had all human remains located to various moons.
all that blood came from the populous on both earth and mars, and no one knows exactly how it happened, but something sinister has occurred.
I find it unique in concept. I've never heard of it used. Any books? It'd make for quite a harrowing dark (literal) adventure.
I'm not sure you would have time to realize it lol
Every single time Mark says "lore", I keep getting reminded of that one time in Surgeon Simulator with Mark crawling through vents like a madman, muttering about the lore.
Why does surgeon simulator let you go in the vents???
@@sidereumcantor1525 All surgeons enter the operating room through the vent. The door is for patients only. You didn't know that??

@@shadowbunny7892 i just kind of assumed they went through the door,,,,
@@shadowbunny7892 Whenever you go into surgery they put you under. They make you think they do this for your sake but actually it is to hide the goblin surgeon in the vents
I'm surprised there aren't more sunken subs littering the ocean floor in the open areas. Unless that alien fish prefers to corner its prey in tight corners, which is rather unsettling.
the coi only *has* 4 subs, 3 now that the sm8 is wrecked
Well 2 after this game, RIP SM13
Interesting headcannon, but apparently that Angler Fish or whatever it be, kills you on your way to take the last important picture. So essentially it is programmed to kill the player when they only have one important picture left to take. So it could literally kill you in the important picture in the middle of the ocean, the same one it can appear in. So maybe it just doesn't like pictures being taken, especially its picture. XD
Perhaps the other subs sunk on the other moons.
@@fivestarguy100 I haven't watched this video yet, but I'd like to put my two cents in-
This is deep waters where lights are not common-
It is dark, and this fish clearly have adapted to it.
So a giant flash of light, done whenever a picture is taken, must be like being hit in the face by a flashbang for some.
It's insane to me how one can be so good at storytelling that they can make a game where the only thing you ever see is the inside of a deep sea submarine and it's still somehow this good. I hope this game isn't forgotten.
it isnt that good

I hate that mark missed this- when you go through the really tight, secret hallway that connects the first main area to the second, you can take a picture and itll show a man made hallway, made out of the same materials as the wall that you take a picture of before you go to the hallway. A clip of this can be found on TH-cam
Like walking through the vaulted halls of an ancient temple, flooded with a universes worth of sacrifices…

The horrifying part of SCP 354 is that there are no records of the exploratory mission outside of the logs. The O-5 didn't ok it, the site director didn't ok it. The people the logs say went in have zero memory of going in. They think the SCP itself created the log to scare them away from sending people into it.
corrections: nobody ever even *proposed* an expedition, and the people said to have gone through don't even exist
My theory: the lake goes into different universes and such, similar to The Infinite IKEA. It could be an alternate universe SCP foundation that explore it and found this alternate world.
@@theasexualidiot4803 Another possible theory is that if someone dies within the realm of the blood lake they are wiped from existence but not completely, only leaving a few traces

@@esteban938 Yes, but some of them returned, they didn't all die on the other side.
The fact that he did the first run perfectly without hitting a wall is crazy
He can be kind of a perfectionist when it comes to these kinds of things so while crazy, I was not surprised in the least lol
He was playing as an actual sub driver so I'd say it was pretty life or death in his situation.
He scraped a wall the first time but didn't go full force
I’ve played the game myself, and in my experience it’s actually pretty difficult to hit a wall. The game starts warning you even if you are a pretty massive distance from any walls, so as long as you pay mild attention and have patience, you shouldn’t be hitting any walls on your first play through.
I mean he COULD HAVE been a engineer as he said
22:34 that achievement if for photographing the upper right anomaly. The game ends and the jumpscare plays when you attempt to photograph your 9th node, whatever node that may be (you can never photograph more than 8 anomalies), and the upper right is *usually* last, especially on the first playthrough. Hence, "You've Played this Before" you know about the jumpscare, and wanted to know what the "last" photograph was.
Also, I think that sound is the sound of something breathing...
Could also be the sounds of something being pumped through those tubes, which seem the be functional unlike the other tubes you find further back
I got the "you've played this before" achievement on my first run by pure accident because I missed a photo at the start
@@mrrithexthesilent6385 The other tubes/artifact also makes that sound
I skipped the photograph right outside of the space-warping star's tunnel on accident lol
That's not breathing, that's the tubes pumping something, which is the same sound you hear at the 3rd anomaly at 27:11.

The Blood Moons are actual Blood so they may be made up of the victims of the Quiet Rapture
The Buildings in the ocean could be either an abandoned research outpost or an actual building that was taken during the Rapture

@@StockGoat whales don't have scales
I think in the game you can hear at one point the two different creature's roaring at each other. 🤔
I just realised that if the ocean is real human blood, then the fact that it's red means there is oxygen and iron, so if that could be extracted then they've just found a literal ocean of resources

Plot for Iron Lung: There are 2 remaining factions in the universe after the quiet rapture happened. You are playing as a captured member of Eden, the remains of an old martian colony established before the rapture.
You are forced by The Coalition of Iron (C.O.I) to do research on Moon At-5 or die. The protagonist chooses life and writes the letter on the floor of the submarine as a way to vent his frustrations and how if he's going to go out, he might aswell go out on his own terms. In the depths of the unknown blood ocean instead of the vast emptiness of space. The Coalition actually sent a research vessel down there before the player but it crashed and they're now just scrapping everything together to try to make sense of this blood ocean anomaly.
It is also confirmed that the blood seems to be of human origin or at least human adjacent. The game assets also suggest that there was some weird ancient cult like civilization at one point inside the blood ocean. There are remains of buildings/temples, weird monoliths, wormholes, and giant bones. It was a theory that this specific civilization casted a ritual that made it so that every star, habitable planet, and (presumably) everyone on it vanishes from existence. Also a point of note is that NO ONE watched or found out about the quiet rapture before many days after it supposedly happened. First, it was radio silence before a few ships was sent to investigate to find the remains of an empty void. There's also hidden secret assets in the game which is either a leak for the dev's newest unrelated game or a sequel/prequel to expand the universe of Iron Lung (though that is highly unlikely)
You don't think the note was written by a previous prisoner who refused to carry out the mission?
I never understood how people didnt immediately notice every star in the night sky disappearing. That would raise concerns personally
I wonder if the game would at all be connected to David Symanski’s other game “Dusk”, since that game is centered around a cult
@@walterthemighty7549 i don't think so , why it would previous prisoners? If the submarine itself actually just designed for one time use mission? we can also see the lore , submarine was welded while someone is inside there is no door to get in , so the prisoner just welded in the makeshift submarine

Interesting thing. In last vid Mark mentioned something like "all people on earth wouldn't be enough to fill this ocean with blood". After that I got interested and made some calculations. I don't have any data on in-game ocean of blood on this moon, so I used Pacific Ocean on Earth instead. So, to fill Pacific Ocean with blood, if it's drained somehow, you'd need to exsanguinate approximately 1.34*10^18 adult human beings. Its like, 1.34 billions of billions. And it's 168.686.463 times earth population. Then I was bored and calculated how it'd affect our Moon's trajectory relative to earth, since blood is a bit heavier than water, but its not that impressive - moon would get just 0.0009% closer.
Edit: obviously, ocean in-game is, probably, much smaller than Pacific, since it's located on some moon and moons tend to be smaller than planets. It's just that this theme caught my interest. Someone call me if we'll get information on this ocean's volume, and I'll adjust numbers to get proper data applicable for this particular ocean
Edit again: I've been trying to answer your questions and making more calculations under this comment, but there's too many of you, people. You're on your own now. Look for formulas in answers to this comment.
Fascinating, in terms of space though even that small of a percentage does make a rather major difference.
Further they _say_ it's human blood, but from their own records there's not enough humans to fill even a pond, let alone a moon. So what if the blood is the _same_ as human blood, (chemical makeup) that somehow is created on these 4 moons? The earth can create various liquids, so what's to say other places couldn't make something similar to human blood in makeup? And it doesn't congeal so it must not be totally like human blood....
This was cool of you thanks
That is very interesting, thank you.
Nice calculations, but since there are only moons in this universe after the rapture, then the oceans are really, really smaller than Earth's oceans. Also, there were more humans in Mars than on Earth, according to this new lore; so probably way more than 7 billion existed
so glad he found the SM8, was worried he would miss it
before the update, there was a "Humming Monolith" in the same spot, similar to what Mark found in the very top right of the map this playthrough, but it also made an exclusive sound. additionally, the eye jumpscare would follow you until you use your camera, and the beast that gets you at the end, its file name is "frog"
I wonder if the monolith was moved, since the mystery it provides is so cool. Then again, they could’ve removed it if it was just to be mysterious and doesn’t make sense of the lore that’s been added
@@ma.2089 it was.

@@EtamirTheDemiDeer cosplay costume, but I'm about to switch over to crocheting a blanket... wbu?
I really like the "ghost light of dead stars" thing. Like the stars aren't there. But they're light years away so you won't "see" them disappear until their light stops reaching you years from now. If this happened to us right now, we wouldn't see any star besides our sun disappear for over 4 years.
And what's scarier is that first the Sun would go out ~8 minutes after the rapture (as seen from Earth), then nothing would happen for 4 years, until suddenly Proxima Centauri disappears, then another star, and then another after that, and every few years we'd see stars flicker out of existence and our night sky gradually grow darker and lonlier and colder with no way of ever knowing why they abandoned us.

What really fascinates me about this game is just how interesting this world is for just how little we get of it. Even more intriguing is that (from what I've heard), the Creator said that all the lore he has for this universe is present in this game, he hasn't (or hadn't) really thought much beyond that. So for what little we get, there's just so much.
The greatest trick a good fiction author can pull is show you a tiny bit of information and cause you to invent something huge and interesting to you. Sounds like this dude did it by accident.

Oh my god I assumed the "blood oceans" were just oceans highly concentrated with iron-oxides, like an ocean-wide version of the "red beaches" that occur irl. I didn't expect them to be straight up human blood
same but I'm glad they specified what the chemical compisition was
You're a nerd just like me lol, I also assumed it was just something that Looked like blood to us but wasn't really. Makes me wonder if the same logic can be applied to the meat fountains of Alma from the game OFF...
How these things formed is what interests me. What led to the formation of these things? How long have they been there? What the FUCK is that thing doing down there in it?!
So many questions.

@@astitvakumar8618 possible
Fun fact: The entire ocean is 3D modeled, meaning you can take a picture of a point from multiple angles, getting different pictures of the same object, it isn't just pre-set pictures you'd get at specific points of the ocean, also the monster following you is actually just a PNG of it's eye following your submarine!
I do recall some other youtuber but forgot his name that there is a 3D model of the map, but the way the game works if my memory wasn't being rusty is that they take pictures of the specified 3D modelled area out of bounds to your photographs depending on where your XY coordinates are.

This comment COULD NOT have aged better.
Waiter! Waiter! More blood please!
What makes it worse is when you know it’s actual human blood and then you start thinking about temperature… is it warm like fresh blood right out of the vein? Or is it cold and thick and super viscous?
It shows waves in it, so it's not cold and congealed, it has to be warm.
The computer says, "somehow remains as a liquid" so I assume its cold
You can walk thru it in your sub really easily so I assume it’s still somewhat warm
Implied to be cold, since it’s noted that it somehow maintains liquid form.
@@ZZMonkeysUncleZZ that’s probably more so due to the fact that exposed blood generally coagulates, ignoring temperature the blood should naturally coagulate to a semi-solid too state

Apparently, according to my friend, based in the scales and the eye, the creature is more of an herbivore than a carnivore. And due to the fact that it lived in the dark its whole life before you effectively flashbanged it, it was basically just:
“Oh, what’s this moving thing? It doesn’t look like something I can ea- OH MOTHER FUCKE-“
Edit : The creature that kills you at the end and the creature’s eye you took a picture of are two different creatures from what I’ve read.
it didnt kill you at first, its not a predator, it was curious of you
Yep, just coming in to give you a kiss
I thought the big monster had the teeth of a carnivore, though... Can't say the same for the skull Mark found in the first video, though, whatever THAT thing was was definitely an herbivore. Which seems odd that it would be found in a blood ocean.
On land, most herbivores are opportunistic carnivores when given the chance, especially in times of low nutritional value in leaves and plants. There are videos of deer chewing up snakes that have more context.

Considering if all stars disappeared right now, we would still see them in the sky for millions upon millions of years, since light would have to travel all that way to our eyes until we can register they’re gone, it’s more likely that everyone not on a planet at the time of the Quiet Rapture were the ones raptured and not the other way round. By what, or for what reason, is the question.
Damn, that’s a twist and a half.
Or maybe the thing that caused the Rapture is sentient and is deliberately snuffing out the stars to torment us
@@StarboyXL9 or collecting planets and stars
you see stars on the title screen for that very reason
Part of the opening exposition says they're under the light of dead stars. I'd assume asteroids wouldn't get raptured and life gets left behind.
As a writer, I really appreciate Mark being able to draw comparisons between this and SCP while *emphasizing* that they are distinct and unique stories. Too many people just say, “so it’s just [similar thing].”

@Can'tthinkofaname most monster collecting games fail in the USA because people often consider them a Pokemon rip off, for example.
I'm an artist and it's so annoying when people compare my bird characters to Pokemon even though they don't look alike. Like I have a bird with a red body and rainbow flight feathers and a rainbow crown of feathers on its head (like it's ACTUALLY rainbow). For some reason people compare it to Ho-Oh even though:
The body is not the same
The legs are not the same
The head shapes are different
The feathers on the head are different
The color of the wings is different
The tails are different
The body feathers are different
The beaks are not the same
The eyes are not the same
The body markings are not even slightly similar
Yet because it's a bird with a red body, it's automatically Ho-Oh. Even though the color red and being a bird are the only things similar (and Ho-Oh isn't even actually rainbow like mine is).

The thing is, that obelisk that emits that weird groaning noise was already in the game before this lore update. So I find it curious that the game would be updated for “lore” but there still isn’t any clue as to what the obelisk even is.
The only detail I noticed, and this is something Mark pointed out but I don’t think actually connected these dots, is that there are two “buildings” that look the same in this ocean and they both have an obelisk nearby. The difference is the one closer to the start point is silent, while the one at the end of the game is emitting noise. What this means, I have no idea. But it seems like an important detail to note.
My idea is to put the name of the achievements into the computer and see if it has an inquiry
Maybe the computer entries are the added lore
But the obelisk looked different before did it not?
maybe one is "dead" and the other is still "alive" and communicating?
@@modelomegatyler Maybe its an endpoint/startingpoint thing? A "listening" and "talking" system could be possible too.
This is literally my favorite small indie game ever. Not only is the text expertly written (written in a way where it gives you all the info you need without a HUGE wall of text), but the ambiance is made incredibly well and the game itself built in such a smart way. While I LOVE this game, though, I hope the developer doesn't continue to add onto it. I hope they go and either make games in the same rich universe as it or create something entirely new. They're incredibly talented and I can't wait to see what they come up with next.
Meanwhile I would personally love if they did add more to it, I am too curious for my own godo and really wanna know the story of what the hell happened in this universe

The creator has said he wants to work more on this game, but he doesn't know how because the game was literally something that came to his mind.
@@Blackholebirb For me, the mystery of it only adds to the horror and adding too much knowledge would take away from that fact which is why I think a new game, new setting, new character but same universe would be a good way of expanding on the concept without revealing too much- but that's just my opinion.

I just thought about it and what about the possibility that the Quiet Rapture wasn’t the disappearance of planets and stars. They’re all normal and present, however all of the *spacecraft and space stations* were the ones who disappeared into some alternate reality due to a space anomaly.
What’s more plausible, every habitable planet and star in the universe magically disappearing with nothing left behind to even hint at an energy source capable of doing so? Or all spacecraft and orbital stations vanishing due to an unforeseeable anomalous event
That makes more sense for or what if all the space stations got teleporting because of a black hole or something I don't know I'm just rambling on
This is rather unnerving. Given this concept, and considering the oceans are confirmed to be of human blood, it's almost like whatever brought the survivors to this realm has been doing so for a long time, and with the singular purpose of reducing us to blood.
Whether the POV we're seeing is from those taken or from those left behind is, ultimately, a matter of perspective until evidence solidly proves otherwise.
This game scared me shitless and i fr could not sleep for a whole ass week. Even after a month of having watched a playthrough of it, it still unnerves me onto a personal level. Whoever made the game is a fucking horror genius and i fear them.
that kinda reminds me of Observation, the characters are stranded in their space station trying to establish communication with Earth only to find out something unexplainable transported their space station to the orbit of Jupiter, amazing concept!
Seeing him bring up SCP makes me really hope he's heard of SCP-Secret Files and gives the demo a go. I think it holds alot of potential.
Oh my yes, I'd love to see him play SCP-Secret files. Seeing him react to the hanged king would be entertaining. I love how the game took such a scary SCP, and then fleshed it out more than the article does to show the aftermath of an uncontrolled containment breach.

@@kamyk2000 right. Not trying to be pretentious, just letting you guys know. Sorry if it came out that way.
SCP-354 is a red liquid resembling blood which reaches abnormally high densities below its surface.
SPOILERS
The most interesting thing about it if I remember correctly is that at one point it spat out an exploration log which chronicled the travels of a group of SCP foundation staff within the SCP (or perhaps on the other side of it), having entered the lake and re-emerged in another bigger lake in a different world than Earth.
The foundation never sent any such exploration crew.
Seeing as SCP 354 is implied to be some kind of inter-dimensional portal, and the blood ocean in Iron Lung not only has a mysterious portal but also randomly teleports the sub from time to time, I think that inspiration is likely.
@@maxmocs5008 I think this game dev has made quite a few games centered around blood and viscera, so it could just be coincidence.
@@chromaphasia453 Let's be honest, an ocean of blood is a disturbing and intriguing concept regardless of inspiration.
There’s also the fact 354 has creatures that come out of it sometimes
Reading that sent a chill across my entire body
i love that mark hyperfixated on this game so hard he made a whole movie out of it like *that's* some dedication
So, considering this whole "silent rapture" bit, hear me out.
The perspective is from those who have suddenly seen a disappearance or perhaps "extraction" of all planets that could potentially preserve life.
What if, in fact, the event occured ONLY to those who were involved in this iron and steel company, and not to those on Mars or Eden?
Perhaps from the perspective of planets that had life and Eden itself, they observed the sudden disappearance of those involved with the iron and steel coalition?
That would mean a cosmic event moved that coalition and their operatives from normal time and space, and those experiencing these blood oceans are more experiencing their sudden movement OUTSIDE of normal time and space to barren space?
For those who remember Steven King's movie, "The Langoliers", that is the sort of thing I'm mentioning, to a degree.
Thats a neat theory i havent heard of yet. They wouldnt even be any the wiser. Though that still leaves the blood oceans to be explained...
@@everythingsalright1121 There is also the problem that these oceans apparently consist entirely of human blood. So where did this human blood come from? is it from humans or was it artificially made? and if it comes from humans, perhaps this is the blood from all humans that were alive before the rapture?

Idk about how the factions tie in. But I do believe that they didn’t disappear. We did.
There is a mod that opens the window so you can continuously see what is going on outside. It's really interesting what you find in the depths!
I saw someone look at the outside and it’s just nothing. The actual map is somewhere else
@@DeathnoteBB Correct, the submarine you stand in doesn't move. You control a camera that moves about and the mod has the camera view constantly shown to your window.
@@DeathnoteBB it is there, but it's hidden for whatever reason EphiTv goes into it. Though as RedSteel said the sub doesn't actually move around the map, but the map if right there next to it.
I feel like people don’t talk about how terrifying the idea of the quiet rapture is, literal dying universe no stars left, light something that’s normally always constant is now a limited resource and will eventually fade completely. And the thought of whole planets and civilizations disappearing with no trace, nothing left in the universe besides a ship running on continuously less and less fuel to call home
well considering there are maybe a few thousand humans remaining in this game's universe, i think the blood moons alone could be enough to power their civilization for upwards of thousands of years.
Well it be possible to survive if set up a blackhole bomb to generate infinite energy
@@digstrememcdingus1463 a black hole bomb is well outside the reach of a few hundred humans to build, if they can't even get a decent low-depth submarine to work. simply orbiting a black hole and harvesting energy from its orbiting matter would be much more achievable.

Fun Fact : Iron Lung is a 3D Game. So that means The Objects are actually 3D Assets. This means that The Assets need to have names. The "Worms" are actually Tubes of Some Kind. The "Bone" is a Stone Monolith, The One in The Back is a Special One that Sings. There's also actual Bones in The Ocean. The Wormhole is called "Anomaly" or something like that. [19:25/21:32]

I just wanted to say into the void since the dev put in all the normal effort for a small 3D game, why does it look so effing terrible...I could make the main menu mountains in blender within a few clicks and it look realistic. The inside of the sub, it took more effort to make it look shitty. As a 3d artist, it annoys me to the core lol...
My theory is that those spaceships (c.o.i and eden) are the ones who disappeared and are now stranded in an empty void with some blood moons around. The Earth and the Mars are probably sitting there, thinking "where did our spaceships go?". That's the most optimistic you can be in that situation.
The worst possible isekai story (at least so far as the characters fates go)
Unlikely and also my least favorite of the theories. A major factor of the horror of the premise is the sheer magnitude of the Rapture, and that the space stations were the ones actually raptured detracts from this.
then how do you explain the blood ocean being human blood?
@@1ncorrect976 What ever took the stations and ships wanted to torment the occupants, an ocean filled with human blood would do that.
@@dustrose8101 It's an interesting theory though
"All stars have disappeared"
"You won't be seeing the stars again"
"The stars shine pale as bones"
plausible answer: many stars are far enough away that their light will still shine for countless years, BUT they've determined all stars went by noticing the ones nearby vanish right away
Because the flash seen on the camera is a star but it's only shows as pale as bone. Ha verbiage I see what ya did there.
Because of how far the stars are, some of them could already be gone and we wouldn't know for hundreds or even thousands of years. If the Sun disappeared we would still see it for like 8 minutes because of the speed of light.
It also mentions the ghostlight of stars. This is a reference to the fact that these stars, while having disappeared, since they are thousands of lightyears away, the time it would take for it to have visibly disappeared from the location of say earth, would take thousands of years, which is why the stars still shine, yet they are dead, "ghosts" if you will.

This game has such an interesting universe, I really hope the dev adds to it in future. I also hear a theory that the blood oceans are the people that got raptured being used to fill the caves but I really dont think its the case. Its obvious that the oceans have been around for a long time as the ecosystems in them have adapted to living in blood. A more plausible theory is that where the planets and stars disappeared to, the blood moons came from and "switched places" from an alternate dimension either by some kind of dimensionally instability or ritualistic event. Maybe this alternate dimension (if it is the case) was dying/was at the end of its life cycle so the life forms that lived in it used a ritual to bring it back to life by stealing the stars and to also get resources from all the planets.
It could be that only the space stations got shifted into the other reality.
Thats actually a good point too

I also just hate this theory because it takes away from the cosmic horror of the game's premise. As it's presented, that all the planets are gone, means there's no longer a safe space for the survivors. There's nothing they can go back to, while an alternate reality implies there is so it becomes ehhh

The way that the creature looks directly into the camera suggests to me that whatever it is must be highly intelligent and aware of you and what you're doing. I feel like it might be some kind of Lovecraftian cosmic entity that may be responsible for the Quiet Rapture.
It's more likely an animal. Animals observe things they aren't familiar with. Seeing what, by all accounts should be a predator in its midst, not react when getting up close to it, it's probably just sussing you out before attacking
Hell some animals wait till their prey is literally touching them before they strike
I prefer to think that the monster can't see. An ocean of blood, it probably evolved to survive without sight, because it would be virtually visionless in the depths
Even as a human I would have no idea where and what a camera would look like on the iron lung, it is most likely discreet. It was probably game design and also lore wise a coincidence that it looked directly at the camera.

As stated in the sm-8 log, there are 4 subs. sm-8 was the good one and was destroyed by whatever creature(s) inhabit this ocean. So as part of your conviction realization, you got the shitty sub. Searching for answers, resources, something. Given that you are a prisoner, they wouldn't care if you died.
As to why at-5 had a redacted entry, I'm guessing it's just so "you" cannot find out that there are horrible monsters on this moon until it's too late
You can learn more from Pyrocynical, the end section of his video on this game includes talking about this new lore terminal
honestly i don’t blame the C.O.I for executing Eden agents after what Eden did to filament station. if the player was actually captured from the attack on filament station, then the player is basically a war criminal. the ‘conviction realisation’ is pretty much deserved.
@@itsukizy Under the assumption that the player was at all involved in the decision to breach the reactor, of course
@@itsukizy That assumes they're telling the truth on it, which given some of their other redactions and statements of "not" having done very specific methods of killing their prisoners, puts that to question for me, lol. Also, they keep talking about being in the majority for certain practices, but when stating populations were the smaller of the two groups mentioned.
@@itsukizy You have to remember that computer terminal is the C.O.I's. Any information on it was curated by them, so it's inherently biased towards them and against Eden. Eden could be the good guys for all we know; or there could be no good guys. Eden might not even have been involved. Eden might not even *exist*.
@@Dr.Fluffles it would be very difficult to lie about an entire station becoming uninhabitable. the incident at filament station doesn’t seem made up. and before you say the coi staged it/self sabotaged as a propaganda play, that seems very stupid in a world with such lack of natural resources. we don’t know much about eden but it’s not unrealistic that they would do something like that in a war/conflict. making certain key areas of enemy land uninhabitable via sabotage is something that actually happens in real life. it’s pretty braindead that people are so quick to jump onto the notion that the coi is always lying about everything. we still don’t know enough about the lore and about eden but eden could be a lot worse than the coi and we wouldn’t know because we refuse to believe the coi. it would be like refusing to believe in german war crimes in ww2 just cause the soviets were the first to call the germans out for it. like, not to bring in actual real world war crimes as examples for a horror game but fiction is always inspired by real events and history is a useful tool to analyse fiction. sure, maybe the coi is bad, but we shouldn’t just deny their claims of war crimes just cause its coming from bad people is my point. i guess its not unlike youtube commenters to deny warcrimes, even if they’re fictional ones lol.
it would be so horrifying to think about that some cosmic entity decided to end all life, destroying every planet, and dumped all their blood on the remaining moons.
Thanos, what did you do?
@Kavetion Jarvis, show me who asked.
an interesting theory that I have is, what if the people that "died" during the quiet rapture werent actually taken? what if the people in the space stations were the ones taken to some weird alternate reality?
well they still see starlight made by the stars before the rapture, implying that they are still in the same reality and were not the ones moved
@@conraderson9121 He means to state that, rather than all of the stars and such simply vanishing, all of humanities machinery outside of earths orbit was “phased” out of our universe and into one that is the exact same right down to the position of the stars and most of the planets, except in this universe, all life just doesn’t exist. No light, no life, no resources. Earth is still there, we just can’t see it because it’s on the other side of a dimensional barrier. I’d be willing to wager that that warbling thing Mark photographs is a portal leading back out into our universe.
Or, more terrifyingly, it doesn’t lead to our universe, but rather another, with life that is so far from friendly that even breathing near them would warrant a mauling even the most determined bear would blanch at.
@@TheCorrodedMan Oh no i got that, i’m just saying that the fact that there is still light from now vanished stars means that that’s not what happened. That is unless all the light in the universe got “phased” away with all the machinery, but that seems like a strange inclusion. The fact that they can still “see” stars through their lingering starlight either disproves this theory or makes it far more complicated, as now you have to include other seemingly arbitrary things in the “phasing”.
It's one of the most common theories abiut this game

There’s been another lore update!
Bruh😂
Lmfao

I'm starting to think here. What if instead of the _planets and stars_ vanishing, instead the _space stations and other asteroids_ did?
It would be much simpler to explain (some wormhole portal thing probably), but then there's the question of starlight still existing, so I don't know
the "starlight" thing has a simple explanation, the stars them themselves vanished its due to the speed of light being a thing so until the distant light catches up to wherever you view it from it will be there a ghost of what once existed
Starlight still exists because it takes a long time for light from the stars to travel
Ah well, Mark does have some experience with wormholes
Yoooo that makes so much sense!
@@thecharmer5981 and? if the moons, asteroids, and space stations were really the things that vanished, they wouldn't be receiving that light anymore, because the light would be going to where they used to be, not the objects themselves. this would only be a good point if the original comment was about the planets disappearing and the stations remaining, and not the other way around like it is.
The Eden space station having the last remaining trees is an amusing reference to the biblical “garden of Eden”
more like a dull and obvious one.

I love scp 354, but did you guys know there’s actually no evidence that an exploration ever took place? The exploration log was suddenly found inside of their database, and the names mentioned don’t exist on any foundation registries. Some people think that the lake itself created the log in the hopes of fooling the foundation and making them leave it alone.
Edit: you can actually see the little note about it at 1:45
Holy shit
@@Tony-The-Motherfucking-Tiger ye, it’s cool right? The lake manifests monsters and stuff regularly, so it’s not so unbelievable. Some of the monsters it creates fight each other, and some of them are friendly too. It’s a super good read, I recommend
Well, the multiverse is 100% a confirmed aspect of SCP lore, considering the tale of SCP-1730
@@negamewtwo5535 well, the thing about scp is that none of it is really cannon. It’s all written by random people going into the website and creating their own stuff
@@stephenantonsson_II wdym 'none of it is really canon'. the COMMUNITY makes the story and is approved by moderators, thus becoming legitimate canon. you can't just deny people's stories and collaborations like that lol.
they're not just random people either, they're genuine writers.
I am THRILLED that Mark is creating a movie out of this! The concept is so unique, I’m obsessed! I love a good story with well thought out lore, it gives me chills!
