I Played HARDCORE Subnautica for 100 days And This Is What Happened...

I remember my first play through, every time I took my cyclops through the river, he would attack me, one time, I got kinda stuck and ran outta power, not wanting my cyclops to blow up, I boarded my prawn to draw him away, and fought that fucker for like 15 minutes, it was awesome, now no lost river ghost leviathan

that was amazing nothing to improve honestly extremely underrated

Glad you think so! : )

I agree. Very well done, both in terms of a video in general and the "100 days" format. Excellent job

[@Folomus]

At the start I was not sure you could achieve all the goals in just 100 days, but you made it just in time! Thank you very much for this video. It was a great reminder of how good Subnautica is.

Glad you enjoyed it, I definitely realized around day 75 that I was gonna need to speed some things up if I was gonna finish everything in time 🤣

Sometimes doctors will build up a pile of scrap metal around there. There is always dozens of stalker teeth.

[@Xahnel]

There is only one leviathan I kill in every playthrough. It's a reaper. Specifically, it's the one by the Aurora's engines. You know the one. The one that's jumpscared literally everyone at least once. See, playing around in creative taught me some things. Thing 1: everything is as hostile as every in creative, they just can't bite or grapple you. Thing 2: because they can't bite or grapple, they don't play hostile noises or animations when following you around. Thing 3: the absolute bastard hanging out by the Aurora's engines is programmed different from all others. I _was_ using creative mode to explore the plateau thoroughly, categorizing everywhere one can fit a multipurpose room, seeking out cool base locations. There is a little patch of kelp forest between the crash zone and the nearby red grass zone. I was poking around and trying to jam a room into a canyon when a familiar shadow appeared and I whipped around and had a heart attack as a reaper screamed in my face from 3 meters away. But of course, I was in creative, so I knew it could't attack me, and my immediate response was irritation. Then it became curiosity. See, I didn't know how animal aggression in this game worked until I popped on creative. I had already been futzing around near some reapers before this big bastard, I knew they were harmless, I knew they didn't act hostile, and I knew something was up here. So I spent a couple hours testing, and boy what I learned! See, that reaper is special. Every leviathan in the game has a detection radius, and a space I would term their territory, the space where they spend eternity just flopping around. If you enter their territory, you're guaranteed to cop an attack. If you're outside their territory, you _might_ get chased if they hear or see you inside their detection radius. All animals in Subnautica have different amounts of aggression too. So the reaper in question is a dev trick. They want you afraid of leviathans. They want you traumatized and avoiding them wherever possible. So, they made the most common surface leviathan the reaper, and gave it a nice long grapple animation so it can stare you in the eyes while it roars and tries to kill you. This alone would be enough to discourage plenty of people, but the one by the engines is special. It has a massively expanded territory, and it's highly aggressive. The absolute moment you put a toe out of line, it's gonna find you and attack. Even in creative. So, yeah. I kill that thing every time. Because I don't want to deal with it's special different rules.

[@RodrigoPereira-bz9ri]

Wait, if you kill a Leviathan, it doesn't spawn anymore??

[@Xahnel]

@@RodrigoPereira-bz9ri in my experience, they don't. Leviathans are persistently tracked. It's why you can accidentally change where one lives.

[@RodrigoPereira-bz9ri]

If thats the case, we can follow Margarett's mantra, hunt the sea monsters until there is none to hunt you 😂😂

[@zephyrmasterstormforger8687]

Actually that part about increased aggression makes sense, although wether that is the case because of increased radius or because I discovered while playing hardcore, I don’t know

18:00 I just got a MK3 module for my seamoth, went down, got all the nickel and sulfur I needed for BOTH MK1 and Jump Jet Upgrade mods for the prawn and then went up, no cyclops or base needed.

As hard as it is for me to admit, i think some ppl just didnt watch this because they got bored, i mean, basically nothing went wrong, ig it’s like reading a book with no antagonist, sure the leviathans can be labeled as antagonists, but it seemed to be such an easy hurdle to overcome
