6 Most Terrifying Enemies in No Man's Sky | Abyssal Horrors and More!

[@womedrah1415]

not sure if I'm lucky or unlucky, but there is a solar system one jump from my starting one that has those worms on every planet. It's a dope solar system though and the planets are great for farming cooking ingredients... except for one that I've named oblivion x2

[@UnkleSanik]

I see the larva all the time, but I was genuinely terrified on my first encounter, I tend to fly on first person so imagine my surprise when I get pulled out of hyper and see this gigantic eye of Sauron staring right into my soul, taking up most of the screen

You think that's bad one time I landed on a aggressive planet now I have experience I have 400 hours into the gamel. you would think tunneling away from the Sentinels would be a safe option well one day it was not the case for me, I was just digging my tunnel then restoring back the terrain where it was and all of a sudden a Sentinel just poped right through the terrain where I was tunneling and what exact reaction was " WTH HOW DE FUK DID YOUR GAS GET IN HERE" And I dug straight up and just Halled gas

[@scottbot2105]

The worst predator I’ve faced so far was a sentient ball that looked like the meaty chunk texture blown up to be massive. Their charge attack bartered me as a young traveler and my only way to explore the planet was but seeing them first and starting to lower their health before they started rolling. Still killed me multiple times

One time one of those massive worm’s jumped out of the ground right next to my base

[@MTEditz]

@@johnnierowe9866 I have a base on a paradise planet. Green grass that glows in pattern, bubbles coming out the ground, purple sky, blue water. The dream. Then 2 hours into base building, a 70 foot long sand worm comes flying out the ground and flies about 100 meters before plummeting straight back into the ground. Funny thing is, he only spawns and flies around where my base is. Never seen him anywhere else on the planet lmfao. Now whenever I decide to travel in an exocraft I ALWAYS end up falling in a massive hole that I didn't know he made and now I'm on an unexpected excursion underground. Its like having a giant untrained dog that won't stop digging in the yard 😭

I still remember the first time I not only encountered an abyssal horror, but it was an angler fish. I was out exploring on the beach when I saw *Alluring Specimen* pop up on my visor, and so I went to go check it out. I had to dig inside a tunnel to find the giant plant thing and took one of the Hadal cores and all seemed well, so I dropped my guard and took another one only to be met by a knockback, missing half my health and that God awful screech. I panicked because I couldn't find the exit, my oxygen was running low and I couldn't see what attacked me, only a green light (which was probably because it was stuck in a wall). I pulled myself together and found the exit, swam to shore and walked away from the game for a solid 3 minutes after that. I get PTSD everytime I hear one of those things.

I was lying in bed this morning rememberin' all the things that have killed me... and it got me thinkin'... I literally ran into #6 while watching #3 Scariest NMS moments for me: (All on PD) First time on a derelict... triggered 4 brood sacs First time encountering the giant worms (missed the Expedition) everything but the storm... #1: I was amongst the first at the Space Anomaly when players figured out how to get Minotaur's and Starships inside and murdered anyone with PvP enabled. By pure chance, I'd turned it off just hours earlier. If not for that, my 250hour PD save would have been victim #4. Hats off to Professor Cynical & the volunteers who spent 2 days defending the Anomaly, until HG fixed.

NMS can really catch you off guard hah.

@@KamikaziiKidd If your a beginner player and knoe nothing about them and not prepared, They are easily a threat, Plus sentinel walker mk2 sentinel quads and frieghters are threats even if you're decked out.

[@KamikaziiKidd]

@@agamerdude7596 That's your opinion that I 100% disagree with. I've only been playing for 3 months and I have 600 hours already. I found the enemies of NMS, even on Permadeath to be really weak. Honestly, they might as well remove them since they aren't really doing much. Half the time they just sit there doing nothing but looking at you and on the off chance they do fire at you, they miss way more than they hit. You pretty much have to want to die to them. The Walkers are the worst as they just walk around not doing damage and when they attack, they just stand still and do a lame beam attack that can't hit you if you are moving...Same with the Quads. Not the most mechanically demanding enemies. If that's difficult to you... Oh boy. Also, I haven't found a derelict freighter that I can't just run through...If they were that much of a threat, I wouldn't be able to do that.

It was a planet of mostly water that I stumbled upon in my early-ish days of no man's sky, there wasn't much of anything on the few bits of solid surface but as soon as I went underwater... Throughout the entire planet was hundreds of abnormally large hostile jellyfish or octopus that were covered in eyes

I wish they would add an eldritch horror update. I would love to see giant horror level space gods in the game.

[@theinvisibleworld888]

Great idea....spice things up

[@JerryDavis]

Not the scariest or most deadly enemy, but one that surprised me: if you accidentally hit a passing NPC ship with your mining beam, it pisses off the pilot and they will relentlessly pursue and strafe you non-stop until you get into your own ship -- after which they run like hell. I had one follow me for hours, even while I was in caves or underwater -- and they can hit you underwater. It's actually quite fun, and so now I piss off NPC's on purpose just to have some action while I explore.

I was showing my brother and dad how weird blue star systems can be and witnessed my first immortal worm. I was headed up a hill, then a rumble, and bam! It freaked me out so bad lol.

The worst one for me was when I fealt strong enough in my permadeath save to visit bases in the anomaly. I got there and tried to finish a creature contract. I got one shot killed by this by a slew footed triceratops the height of a giraffe. This thing just ran me over and it all went black. I had the coolest starship and an S class Capital ship man.

(Warning this may not be entirely accurate to what happened- it’s just what I remember) I just got the game recently and at instead of starting a survival game I started a creative one just to fly around and get a feel for the game.

That was the most i ever panicked. It's not even the predators you have to worry about because they let you know they're hostile, the real ones you gotta watch out for is pissing off the herbivores that will fight back.

[@donaldwatson7698]

It's probably the asteriod larva and the ocean abyssal horror for me. I encountered my first ones each at a very awkward moment defensively and it left an impression. The biological horrors, if I know they're going to rise up, can be dealt with by calling down my freighter and standing on it's roof. I sometimes carve trenches as well to slow some down. There's still the acid to dodge, but otherwise it is a turkey shoot. I've not encountered the combined level of insanity that's #2 on the list, but it looks like one of those things that's exhilarating if you survive.

I haven't seen one lately, but 'angry allosaurs' were fairly common on my 1st playthrough at launch. They could be a handful. In 2018 I landed on a frost planet. I'd seen nothing as I came down, but I was immediately attacked from the side. One hit nearly killed me in the game, and IRL from the jump scare.

There is a planet that is rocky (haven't played in a while) with giant striped, purple and blue elephant like creatures with mouth tentacles and it's head is a crest that it's eyes sit on that overlap into 3 rows and stand angled, like moose horns. They look exactly like the elephant alien things from the avatar movie and they are hostile as hell. Giant short tailed rats with human hands too, very creepy place imo. More creatures there too There is another planet made up of only islands with like..no color, it's black and white. Except small hints of red and green in the atmosphere, and prehistoric looking palm trees that create thick forest, cratered also. Herds of whale headed striders litter the landscape and there are jet black tiger like beast with the heads of flies and long thick tails that travel alone, and sneak up on you. The worst thing there however are the packs of six eyed green, alien headed things that are the size of a t rex and have a body like one except they have human hands that curl downward. They hunt you endlessly and are extremely vicious and kos. On a lighter note, I've been too an erupting planet that had these huge 4 legged scaled beast with spined fins on it's fore limbs and it's back. Its head looked like a hadrosaur and it was gentle as could be. I killed it lol.

[@lordofchaosinc.261]

I followed a reddit thread about a predator spawn on a green planet located next to a portal too. This planet has two predator species, a harmless feline type and a burrowing mouse which attacks relentlessly. It's hard to hit but even if it seems to take no damage either. If not next to the ship or not equipped with good jetpack you're done for.

[@landsquid-hm5lv]

On my first time on an ocean planet I set about and built a base (I was unfamiliar with the controls and I am and was a creative mode player) when the ground started to shake and a huge worm appeared on the horizon, leaping out of the water and back into it almost like a dolphin, if you have any clue what monstrosity that was I would love to know

[@johnnierowe9866]

One jumped up right next to my base and they do appear on land to

[@Peatawn]

Recently I landed on a planet that had more than one predator species, both of which were common. I'm not sure if there was a third one too. One of them is a badger type that pops out the ground and does considerable damage when it pops from underneath you or very close. It immediately goes back underground staying upside for less than a second. It makes it extremely hard to kill. It chases you if you run away by popping out and back in the ground in fairly long leaps and you never really know where exactly it will pop out while you're running away. Pair that with the other feline-type predator in the area, needless to say it was the only time in my hundreds of hundreds of hours in NMS that I decided not to roam the planet without being inside my minotaur.

[@juandeandrade3675]

It'd be cool to see some Lovecraftian figures and encounters in No Man's Sky. Imagine a narrative or mission where you eventually discover that what you encountered is completely out of your control, and only reveals how small you are compared to the universe around you.

When I started playing, I was curious about Whispering Eggs. Knew nothing at the time so the event lead to instant death. Few years later and I've grown to engage in combat.

I've encountered the asteroid larva! When using up my collection of Anomaly Detectors, of course. Was still really cool. I don't find the Biological Horrors terrifying, they look pretty goofy. Especially since their back legs are always up in the air for me. Well, that and I always cheese them by standing on the abandoned building roofs. I do think my best jumpscare was when finding a calcified planet, I got the one with the ossified stars as its reality glitch, and indeed the wandering ones were aggressive. I didn't expect one to suddenly roll into me!

THE WHIRLING BONE THINGIES omg... I almost soiled my pants when i first saw them... they were red and white... whirled like razors moving underground.... dude those zergling lookalikes were like walk in the park next to them

God, those hadal cores scared the life out of me when I first harvested them. Mostly combined with the screaming lack of background music when underwater. To this day, whenever I see one, I immediately turn my volume completely off, as I’m a very jumpy and stressed person lol

No Man's Sky is a game that i really loved to play, because i love everything about space and universe, unfortunately sounds stupid that im also terrified of it, so playing this game for me is a rollercoaster of emotions 😊

One tip for dealing with the biological horrors/burrowing monstrosities, is to move in circles. All their attacks are linear so moving in circles prevents any attack, from any direction, from ever making contact. Just gotta make sure the the circles are large enough to actually dodge the attacks, say 3X the width of the bio-horror's head?

I just started recently and the anglerfish really made me jump. The game itself is really relaxing and i normally dont get caught off guard that easily but i really wasnt expecting something like that from a game which feels quite harmless most of the time.

The planets that are filled with those giant mechanical globe heads has the creepiest bgm. I often glance around while mining half expecting one of them to turn and thunder roll at me for looting their resources. If they ever patched that in without warning I would probably throw my controller in terror lol.

Ended up on a super-hot water world, and had to dive way the hell down for a mission, to a sunken base. First time encounter with the abyssal horrors there. I mean, under the water is horrible enough with the audio, and knowing you got limited air and shield and stuff. But when what you thought was a rock suddenly turns, stares at you, and SCREAMS at a high volume... Let's just say that my thalassophobia, which was already triggered, jumped into high gear. The amount of profanity that left my mouth until I managed to get back to the surface...

Luckily I haven't really encountered any horror creatures YET. Only been playing for about a week, had a run in with some big cat things on a frozen extreme planet while farming Storm Crystals, but apart from them I have been lucky. Not been underwater yet.

Thanks for this. I'm a creative mode person who has started playing expeditions. I'm really a coward and not good with weapons. But I've been dying a lot and learned to go get my stuff after death! I jump scare even when I know the thing is coming.

A little late to the party, but as a practiced Larval Egg collector, I have on two occasions lost in permadeath (my first two, actually) to what can only be described as a one-two-three punch. I was not fast enough or unlucky enough to dodge INTO the blow, in reacting to the first hit, stunning me, and the next two bites connected, ending my early attempts at collection. Never on Perma without at least a couple extra pips of health to be sure. The second, not related, was to ram full speed in a Pilgrim into dissonance drillers at full health only to find this instakills. Incidentally, Pilgrim tyres are deadly to the little horrors.

I'm a permadeath player and the first time I saw the alluring light I knew, just knew something bad was gonna happen, but I needed the money and hadal cores are a bit lucrative, so my curiosity led to trying to mine it, and it was truly terrifying. I was sure that was gonna be what ended my save this time. I survived, but I'm not going anywhere near one of those until all of my upgrades are s-class because that was terrifying.

The Asteroid Larvae is basically the Eye of Sauron. Neat.

The anglerfish freaked me the heck out. I just swam away super quickly, and left it to do its thing. But I think the thing that jump scared me the most was getting attacked by a dinosaur while harvesting di-hydrogen on a planet that I'd been to several times and hadn't encountered anything aggressive. I was so startled, I wound up frying the raptor. Oops, sorry buddy! The swarms on the derelict also freak me out, just because that whole environment is creepy, imho. The squelchy nature of their nests made me avoid derelicts for a long time after the first one. (Doesn't help that I'm a bad shot, and more of an explorer than a fighter.)

Nice vid mate
