A Subnautica 3 Dev made me Wait to Show you This! - Reveal of the 3000km Deep Void Spike Leviathan

[@Anthomnia]

Edit: I want to make it clear the Mod developer had no part of knowledge in any suspicion when it comes to tracing of any art, Even when i had initial concern the mod dev wasn't in my thoughts at all about it. We'll work with them to get a re-design going :) The last thing I expected after finding actual planned content / DLC for the next Subnautica was a speculative RELEASE DATE!! I actually had to wait for a dev to verify if what i found was actually meant to be public or supposed to be private, This is so insane i almost forgot the Void spike leviathan is also finally shown in this video! As always give me your thoughts, It's been a long time since we've spoken about Subnautica, I honestly hope they do add cosmetics if it is a planned feature for the next SN

@@Whispn I just wanted to add since i sent this reply to another comment; Honestly i would argue because they said "Additions Include more expansive maps" Maps being the key word, They are implying numerous maps to their investors, Maybe you can look past the "Maps" and just assume Map but you need to realize this is a event held for investors and their confidence in Krafton. They have to be VERY specific with their words so i think it's unlikely it's just implied as a singular large world.

Yea your right, artist here and this is definitely a direct modification/recreation. It's quite obvious, most art theft I see is much more subtle than this crap.

[@RaiderAvian]

agreed. Traced, and then details were added. It does not matter if this is to add their own changes to the design, or to make it less obvious. It is a shameful thing to do without permission. Tracing is a tool that should not be used to steal art (plagiarism).

[@xxCrimsonSpiritxx]

That leviathan is definitely "traced" and obviously a redesigned artwork, let's not play pretend here we're all grown ups, this is plagiarized work, if they MUST use it they should at least take permission from the original designer and feature his/her name, and at best they should pay him/her

[@sleepysundew9544]

Definitely artist tracing is found useful even in game design. They must only use it as a inspiration though not the final draft of what it’ll look like so we’ll see what they do 😅

[@wjrneo2]

I agree, that is simply a re-detailed trace of the same work. Heck, it may have even been just the original art but run through AI Image generation generating the exact same thing.

[@rosesongoku6980]

I hope they keep the announcement: "Leviathan location… under you." Then we see the finished design rise up toward you.

[@kabob0077]

11:10 If you're going to redesign it I'd suggest redesigning with heavy inspiration from things like the Ghost Shark, the Angler Fish, and the Stoplight Loosejaw. And various other IRL Deep Sea creatures, if this thing is primarily somewhere where there isn't any light, or barely any at all, it should also be sort of like the Garg and Ghost Leviathans as well. Also, the Stoplight Loosejaw HUNTS by lighting up its prey with red, bioluminescent light which its prey can't even SEE! If this thing is supposed to hunt with Light then I honestly think you SHOULD draw inspiration from the Stoplight and Angler for any redesign.

[@flaminggaming143]

Well then its not Subnautica. Subnautica it based on an alien world bro, kinda ruins it to see creatures from earth on there

[@Fun-K-Board]

@@flaminggaming143 I don't think you read it right lmfao, they said insparation off of, not directly placing those creatures into the game. I mean, Subnautica already has creatures that are basically thrown into the game. Sandsharks, the penguin things, the giant squid crab, etc, etc. SInce there's nothing else to base it off of, it makes sense that most creatures are inspired by our world.

[@kabob0077]

@@flaminggaming143 I am just suggesting that, if the creature IS redesigned, that it should take inspiration from various IRL Deep Sea Predators and creatures because those are freaky enough that you can just look at one and think about what to incorporate into a design or what to take inspiration from FOR a design, like the aforementioned Stoplight Loosejaw. How did you get "You should make it look like an Earth creature" from "I suggest using actual Deep Sea Creatures as inspiration for any redesign" when I said no such thing?

I really hope that Subnautica 3 has a similar kind of open beta testing to the original, because that's what made it so good. People saw massive background objects and tried to go to them, so we got the Aurora. People were terrified by the passive reefback, so we got the Reaper. As well as that, a significant amount of bugs were fixed due to open beta testing. Maybe we could get a free demo which just lets you explore the starting area. I'm just really excited for Subnautica 3.

For the photogalvic leviathan redesign,i'd suggest altering the current model, but making it more crab-like, taking some inspiration from below zero leviathans, replacing those fin-like things on its back with rock-like scales and making some kelp and moss grow on it.

While that is neat, I do really like the clean, Catfish-like features, something about it being a grey skin rather than anything else seems more appealing to me

[@ominousmecha500]

In regards to the possibility of tracing you could try making some changes to the face and tail structure to totally distance from the possible plagiarized work. First to end of the tail giving it a fan tail as thats something uncommon in Subnautica leviathans. Then you can change the face possibly giving it a multi layer jaw where the main jaw is split in the middle with a smaller inner jaw that are connected to the outer jaws via a membrane maybe making it a filter feeder. Making it truly stand out as less of a hyper aggressive mega predator and more some peaceful giant but still able to defend itself when threatened

[@dominictorreto1911]

the leviathan was great and interesting but i would like to see a biome based of( single cell living biome which hunts ships and vehicels who hovered over it and the only way to survive it is to turning your lights off and using your sound cues or your sonar radar to guide you while the biome itself is trying to hunt and pull you down and engulf you within itself ) which was actually a old concept for the original subnautica but was scrapped due its complications in design of it and it also being way to complecated for players to actually explore it ) so i really hope they add this feature in there new instalment

[@Funkykitsune]

Since it's so close to the seafloor, I think it would be cool to have the leviathan physically based on something like Marine Gobies (The Yellow Watchman Goby for example) using their fins to push themselves along the floor, burrow and still be able to swim about with deepsea creature elements added

[@endgamer3000]

In terms of what the safest bet would possibly be, I would say make a alter design for it. It could be safe but for the SLIGHTEST possibility that the design was Traced it would be better to work on a alteration for safety

[@Cometstarlight]

I'd say that the void spike leviathan looks too similar to the fan work and I'm of the opinion that it should be redesigned, which pains me to say because it looks SO cool in the concept art. I don't want to accuse anybody because I've known people who've been subject to "similar ideas" who legitimately just came up with the ideas independently of one another, but here with the pose, the head, the body shape--it would be safer to come up with a different design. And if the developers don't want to make it bulky, there are loads of deep sea creatures they could draw inspiration from and still evoke that nightmare fuel aesthetic.

[@thesauceguy1809]

Not sure if this would be an option, but I think the ideal scenario would be getting permission from the original artist for the design. If this isn't possible, you could always change some things up a bit.

[@NivaeliVT]

When I hear expansive maps, I'm thinking it's meaning large maps, maybe we'll see a mix of alterra home world and 4546b, or possibly some other worlds affected with karaa that we get to explore as we're trying to fix Alan's mistake (architect from below zero, sorry if name is wrong it's been a while!). I just think that there's so much potential, and if they were saying expansion packs, they would call them dlc or expansion packs, and the wording of "expansive maps" is just referring to a large game area or areas

[@Infected-Candies]

Aww the baby garg animations are cute enough to make you forget it becomes a massive apex predator that eats reaper leviathans in the void that eventually has beef with ya

[@demonicfreakish]

I wouldn't say its "traced" I would more say HEAVILY inspired. Like used that artwork to create the creature with no given credit or any other influences. But regardless that is a major issue- and the OG artist probably wouldn't be happy about it I'd imagine. In my opinion I'd say take inspo from real life creatures that live at deep depths in the Hadopelagic zone. There are plenty of cool creatures down there that would be great inspo~

Make it's colour pattern match it's abilities, for instance the pink emp bursts, make the bioluminescence pink and white, and make it match it's biome and the depth at which it lives as well, but right now it's waaay too similar to the design, it shouldn't have the same shape and fins as it does in that concept art at all

[@johncolon6827]

@TrashcanSally I agree completely, plagiarism is a huge problem. I also believe that the best mods and content comes from when people take the risk and release something that fits in the best possible instead of being afraid of accidentally taking stolen work. We need to find a way to get permission from the original, or to get the best alternative content. - Edit That didn't quite sound how I intended but you get the general idea

[@trashcansally]

@@Kingwinner2000 yeah, there's no such thing as an original concept, a lot of things have been done before. Although when your concept matches up almost perfectly to another already existing piece of content (basically tracing) i believe you should ask the original artist of the concept before doing anything. I've been an artist for many years now and have created my own original concepts from time to time and there's a lot that goes into those concepts. To say it shortly artists put a lot of time and effort into their works, along with some of them being attached to their own works. Which usually means the most moral thing to do is ask if it's okay to trace or heavily inspire off of a concept before pushing it through. Everyone has the right to their own opinions on the matter and this is just my own as someone in the art field

@TrashcanSally I'm not an artist, so I don't really know how it feels for all that to happen, (sorry for my ignorance) but I feel as though an effort to find the original, or to at least to get a concept just as good for the benefit of the player, not just low cost and profit

If they extend the map, as you said in your last video talking about the void calls and the map being 40km and stuff. What if the middle of the map is the safe space? It's the shallows, and they're connected to it. Are all the biomes we experienced in the subnational one? And in turn, if we venture through the void due north, we can meet/see the map of subsynaptic two(I forgot the name of that title) and get it as an expandable DLC. I don't know how good the new engine will be, but I do hope the map could be even more significant than 40km, maybe even 80 or 100km, where we can explore an entire content lost due to rising sea waters and truly explore a world where the deepness of the void...really wasn't that deep. The world from the cutscenes on the subnational one looks enormous, so the opening being underwater content looks pretty plausible in my eyes, and it's so exciting to think about what if 9000 or even 20,000 meters deep really isn't deep? What if the world could drop at the border to 60 or even 130,000 meters deep and show all those extinct giant monsters, far more extensive than the most enormous leviathan we could think of in that area? From a leviathan that can mimic anything to lure its pretty into the darker, far more desolated void, and then one day we get a sabbatical where we can explore the whole planet, but I don't think a PC would be able to run that, lol. I'm excited to see what they can come up with for this new project! Underwater caves formed in the bones or rotting body of a giant gargantuan leviathan, new creatures brought from other planets that adapted to the many years of living in the void, to even a multitude of mutations of either the precursors who either had their consciences saved became insane and lived in the loss dying submarines of the precursors who lure you in to steal your body if you're unlucky enough to listen to their calls. They have so many things to experiment with at their fingertips, and I hope they go all out of this game and make it utterly horrifying to even think about what you would run into. I hope I didn't run over myself a lot in this; it was so fun to think of what they could do with this game. Hey, maybe it was a scientist who was sent out back to the planet to find the cure to Riley's dumb mistake of turning off the worlds hazmat system, Only to find out that they would have to secure and capture one of the Sea kings to reverse engineer the cure in Riley's blood- Hence why multiplayer would be in the game due to having multiple people capture and secure a sea king. Then use the instructions left both by Riley(probs dead) to remake the cure.

To make it a bit scarier, they should make the W.I.P leviathan design a bit longer and add a slightly longer jaw with more jagged teeth. Yet it’s just *my personal opinion.*

As tracing goes (I'm the art lead for a Pittsburgh game studio) if that piece was meant to be a different creature, there's 0% chance. It has the same pose and proportions. It many not have been traced, but it is basically the exact same creature. Same glow spots, head shape, coloration, body shape, location of major features, etc. It's basically a repainting. If someone took one of my concept arts and repainted it to use as a reference for a 3D model, I'd be pretty pissed if they didn't ask first. This is too close, close enough for legal action.

Its such a beautiful game as an addition id love to see: 1. A Sneaker Leviathan - A horrific leviathan that sneaks up on you, youre just going about your daily business and then turn around and theres a whole open sharp toothed mouth coming slowly toward you or something, 2. A back story and more surrounding the void to explore, a research facility deep in the void and the PDA data explains that the chemicals once stored in the facility had the capability to cause any creatures exposed to it to grow to huge sizes but there was a problem during an experiment and the creature they were testing on reached a size they werent prepared for then it destroyed the facility and now resides in the void forever And then because of that when you go into the void you're met with void creatures (like normal) but if you spend over a certain amout of time there then something else happens Maybe you see some scary looking eyes open on a gigantic face in the pitch black distance and hear some horrific noises then the eyes start eerily getting closer really slowly until you can see the head clearer and clearer until you can eventually see teeth and its still getting closer until it eats you, the scary thing about that could not only be its appearance but if youre not looking the right way then you might not notice it until its really close to you, then theres an animation of teeth going over your head and you being eaten whole.. obvsiously if you do see it then it prompts you to want to swim away from the edge of the map away from it or youre inevitably eaten (Essay and a half but i got carried away)

I’d say redo the model from suspected tracing, in Magic: the Gathering, a card got the company in trouble because the artist of the Strixhaven archive card Crux of Fate used a piece of art so similar to one on deviantart that the artist complained, showed how little difference there was (an arm and mouth move) that it was a problem.

[@involuntaryanalysis]

Not sure if it was traced, but at the VERY least both artists based their designs on the same base creature. I personally, would go with some horrifying combination of bobbit worm, crustacean, and cephalopod, since it's got a bio-electric emp, maybe make it some giant abyssal crabsquid variant.

[@Magosspud]

Dude bobbitt worm or octopus inspired leviathan would be so cool

[@D-lore]

Bro survived an encounter with the gargantuan leviathan bros a true legend

[@nekotranslates]

3,000km deep is literally insane. Cuz 8km deep (Mariana's Trench) is deepest here on Earth... so guessing a place with 3,000km deep ocean must be what... Neptune sized planet?

[@Dovah21]

Subnautica remains nerve-shredding nightmare fuel, glad to be reminded!

[@EPY0N]

Sure, hell yeah, I could do some concept art forward, if need be

[@Creminson]

Being able to customize more our base and being able to pet some leviathans to protect our home is all I want Ps : oh and the Atlas, I WANT IT

[@rykermyth]

I would suggest a anglerfish like modell that way it makes sense why it's so far down.

[@user-burner]

A lot of people are pitching redesigns and i say go humanoid. Uncanny valley alien death creatures could be fun.

[@Seepey]

9:27 so I'm slightly less scared of this leviathan and 100000x more terrified of whatever this thing considers a threat.

[@SpelVarld]

12:48 imagine if thats hwo the next subnautica grafics is gonna be XO

[@jamert8820]

“More expansive maps” means “much larger maps”. Below Zero got a lot of flak because of it’s smallness. If Subnautica was even larger and with more biomes? 💦

[@shadowwraithshade5498]

the only thing i can think of as far as expanded maps and such would be revamped maps for Subnautica and Subnautica: Below Zero that you could play as well in the next Subnautica in UE5

[@slowturtle137]

Something is down there I checked it for and there is something terrifying

[@TheGreyParse]

I was honestly expecting something like the Kraken from Clash of the Titans.

[@KaneyoriHK]

I looked at your comparison and I can say with 99% accuracy that it is NOT traced. The angle of the body is different, same thing with the neck, as well as the fin shapes on all parts have obvious variations along with the shape and bend of the neck. The tail as well curves differently. The artist of the photorealistic one just used the og as a reference, there's too many little and big differences for it to be traced. If they can digitally paint well enough to create semi-realistic skin and lighting, then certainly they definitely have an understanding of shape and depth. So the chances of it being tracing is exorbitantly low for the amount of work that actually takes, they'd be better off drawing it themselves, basing it off the original, than to trace it. You're welcome to redesign it regardless, though I hope the catfish-like features are kept.

I am looking forward to the release of Subnautica 3!

[@shazgaming9145]

Just came up with several names; Project Subnautica: New Journey / Subnautica: Next Dive / Subnautica Next: Unknown World

[@BruddaAmbatablow]

subnautica 3 should have the beautiful biomes we had in below zero and 1, but be more interactive yeah? like a plant species in a deep biome that hides when light is shined on it, or a big flower that uses a big shining bulb that looks like creepvine seeds to lure fish into it

[@jennifermatthews3792]

Subnactica 3 will hopefully come out mid 2024 for early acess then late it would come to pc and consle. The void spike lev look great but i think that picking up more simalaratis from the below zero would fit.

[@vedice]

17:48 its called augmented reality (AR)

[@Emotori7]

I made a drawing of a giant fish but it's not hostile unless it gets attack or feels threatened he has this ability to use his eye to paralyzed (because it only had one eye) it's target as a defense attack but it's also a carnivore it eats meat and that is how it gets it's prey is by paralyzing it using it's eye and it's very slow and can be outrun unless it paralyze you

[@derekdrake8706]

All that work for a submarine that immediately quits life when it sees the garg lol.

[@TGS_ChristinaGaming]

I just beat Below Zero. I love Subnautica, but I’m using a console in order to play my game. I can’t wait for the next Subnautica.

[@RandomPerson69998]

Finally after 2 years! I'll be traumatized just like like i used to.

[@DarkGalaxyRX7]

Oh you mean that cursed octopus leviathan in your latest subnautica 3 video
