NEVER PLAYED BEFORE - Discovering the Abyss: - Into the Unknown | Subnautica | EP1

[@icarusflyte]

Fun fact about this game. The screen blacking out for a few seconds before you actually die was originally a bug but they left it in when the devs saw that it added a bit of tension to trying to surface for air at the last moment. Their intent before then was for death and blackout to happen at the same time.

[@MonEvenStar]

This is super fascinating to know. What a cool feature, it gave me the complete false sense of security that I would make it. Thanks for stopping by. Appreciated🙂

[@knoxpuffer]

Playing Subnautica without the ingame music should be illegal. :x

[@Seanidor]

It's such a shame that Mon has the music disabled in the game, it's some great music that really adds to the atmosphere.

[@MjSnake]

oh.. that sucks.

[@IcarusDrowning-gz8se]

You have said how sad you’d be if someone spoiled the game and robbed you of a real experience. That’s how I feel every time I see someone has streamed this wonderful game. Don’t misunderstand me, I really am enjoying your gameplay, it’s just that you would get SO much more out of the game if you were playing it alone and recording instead of streaming. I don’t just mean the spoilers from the chat or the intrusive jingles ruining it for everyone. It’s the entire atmosphere of the game. Probably it doesn’t seem like much but the whole experience is entirely different when you play it alone. The character is supposed to be a lone survivor in an alien world. Your immersion (no pun intended) is on a whole different level when you play it that way. It makes me sad that by streaming you have forever robbed yourself of the full experience the game offers. As I said, I’m enjoying your video and looking forward to watching the whole series, but I’m also a little sad. This game has, for me, the most engaging, immersive, astonishing, astounding and lots of other words like that (😂) experience I’ve had from any game I’ve played this century (I’m old). Go on and have great fun anyway. You will still love the game if this first episode is anything to judge from, and I’ll love watching 😊 Safe swimming and all other good wishes for you!

[@Danstraightedge]

I love this game. The first game my daughter and I played through all the way to the end together.

[@mr-x7689]

Fun fact. If you tell people not to spoil things in a new game you've never played. Then they can't help themselfe not to spoil it, even if so their own and their families lifes where on the line. They just get this owerwhelming urge to spoil as mutch as possible in as short amount of time they can. Even tell you EXACTLY how to play the game, whitout considering that the PLAYER might want to figure out stuff them selfe as it's a new game for them. I mean it's not like she said "Hold back on giving advices, untill I ask for them." You might have played the game to shreads, but she haven't. So what's so difficult to let experience the game at her own pace, and learn and figure out stuff on her own? So why not sit back and enjoy the ride, and ONLY give advices WHEN asked for it? And what's up with telling her about the stuff she's gonna find , make or see later on in the game? Imagine going to see a movie you realy wanted to see, just so that some random person walks up to you right outside the doors to the cinema, and tells you exactly what's gonna happen in the movie. Would bum you out and remove a lot from the experience right? IF you can't help yourselfe from spoiling s**t. Logg out from youtube and twitch. so you can't comment or chat. and you'll save the creators that feeling.

[@Trojansteel-hh5xd]

There is an option in the menu to pause the game while the data pad is open. If you want to use it.

[@MonEvenStar]

Thanks For this, super appreciated

[@shaggybaggums]

Glad someone got here first with this since I'm so late. This is one thing the game doesn't tell you about, but WILL save your life. Especially if you ever decide to follow the PDA's very first instructions and check out the survival guide. (Nobody ever does. :) ) Also glad to see the trend of grabbing every acid mushroom you see right off the bat continues unbroken. lmao We've all done it. There's lots of other helpful little tips that either took me several playthroughs to figure out, or in some cases required someone to tell me. I won't mention any of them though since we all discover different things at different times, and those little moments of discovery make you feel smart as hell. Or not, if like me you'd been playing for TWO YEARS before finally figuring out something obvious. I won't say what, not just to avoid spoilers, but because it makes me look dumb as hell. Anyway, hope you continue to enjoy your playthrough, I'm certainly going to enjoy catching up on it. Thanks for the video. @@MonEvenStar

[@danielschultz7181]

Yay!!!! Glad to see you playing Subnautica. I knew you would love it. Space management is definitely difficult.

[@MonEvenStar]

Absolutely loving this, and it is so stunning. Great seeing you🙂

[@cosmicdraco7041]

As someone who absolutely loves subnautica, it's always great to watch first timers. Fantastic video and gameplay Mon. Keep being amazing

[@boakley8147]

Though the new update players will never know the horror of a reaper spawning in the safe shallows in earlier patches

[@kristinheddan]

Same. Which is amazing, considering it's a fixed map and somewhat of a fixed story.

[@cosmicdraco7041]

Yeah I remember that,ok. Happened a few times to me. What a experience.​@@boakley8147

[@michacarolus6571]

Hi Mon, I just started the game myself and fid not really expect to be that good. Allthough it is a little frustrating to see you progress much quicker than me. Maybe i am gettingv old. Hope you have fun with this game like i do and i will definitely watch the rest of of your play through but it might take dome time because i don't want to spoil myself as your progression is on another level compared to mine. Thx for a great vid, instant new subscriber. PS: the part with never ending jingle was a bit annoying but i really liked your giggle 's😂

[@Perktube1]

I must admit i like the aesthetics of this game. Not just the colorful flora,but the archtecture as well. The design reminds me a bit of STNG.😊

[@MrShivshank]

my first playthrough of this game was magic. top 5 best gamming experiences.

[@MonEvenStar]

I can see why, truly obsessed. Amazing game. Thanks for stopping by

[@prometheus95]

Yay! I've been hoping to watch you play through this one. Thank you, Mon. Peace and love!

[@MonEvenStar]

That is most definitely happening

[@YouTubeExplore777]

2:28:11 around this time the sound went statically. Informing you so you know what they experienced maybe you'll know how to fix it for future gaming experiences. ❤️🙂❤️

[@MonEvenStar]

Thank you!

[@chrismoore8778]

So happy to see you playing Subnautica. I've watched so many playthroughs through so many versions but there have been a lot of updates since the last one. And of course watching a Mon style playthrough is always a treat.

[@MonEvenStar]

Thanks Chris, always great seeing you

[@heresy1272]

Love the content. Except for the constant "welcome welcome welcome" spam. That was obnoxious...

A stream I’m sorry I missed. Subnautica is an amazing game. Have loved it for many years.

[@MonEvenStar]

What an amazing game, can't believe I haven't played it until now🙂

[@plarkmoby]

@@MonEvenStarOne of those games that keeps the surprises coming. I will say no more, other than I'm looking forward to watching you play.

[@olimar243]

One complain I got the mission impossible theme stuck in my head, and i cant focus at work while im listening to this. Saw your list of playthrough, consider me a new subscriber.

[@MonEvenStar]

Lol, it still stuck in my head too if that helps🙂

[@RaddSpencer]

I originally played Subnautica back in like, 2019 and fell in love. It's still one of my favourite games. In this past November a friend gifted me a Quest 2 VR headset and a few days ago I installed the "Submersive VR" mod for the game and started playing again. I wasn't sure how far I'd get but it's been such a fresh and immersive experience that I'm already deep into the game again. Looking up VR tutorials for t he game is probably why you popped up in my KZbin feed. XD

[@lekillerfou]

Welcome aboard captain! A newcomer in Subnautica, I'm in. Looking forward for the next stream 🥰

[@MonEvenStar]

Thank you for the warm welcome. I am enjoying myself thoroughly, and I love the game. Can't believe I haven't played this game. Thanks for stopping by🙂

[@ajmeyers5661]

It's crazy how many people have zero chill, and just can't stop themselves spoiling and backseat gaming I sort of think they'd be livid if someone non-strop did the same to them

[@michaelnjensen]

Yeah the chat really ruined this as a blind playthrough, with their constant back seating. The downside of streamers playing this and putting it on YT. Seen much better first time reactions from people not streaming it.

[@adaada7318]

man if she wouldn't get spoiled then she would still be nowhere,she reads chat every 5 minutes for atleast an hour and doesnt even make progress just runs the same circle

[@IroAppe]

Where is the music? It's integral to the game and atmosphere.

[@rengiemakes7948]

hey there survivor, i recently had an amazing time on this planet, its filled with many hazards and mysterious so tread lightly, but dont forget, scan everything, hit everything with your trusty survival knife, and mind the fish...some of them are a little more......unforgiving than others

[@MonEvenStar]

Thank you for this, it is so beautiful I love this game. Thanks for stopping by

[@daviskroupa1598]

Loved the video! One of my favorite games. But man, that minutes worth of the jingle over and over almost made me leave, please put a limit on that

[@GoSuMonSteR]

Im losing my mind.

[@kristinheddan]

Lovw this game, and most of all warching people play it that haven't seen gameplay before, seing their first reactions, both wonder and terror. It's the closest we can come to dive into the unknown for the first time again ourselves. ❤️

[@krisshell4773]

You have Squirrel moments too! They can be deadly!

[@racman_87]

Hello Mon. No spoilers from me. I came across your channel from watching a few of your Pacific Drive play throughs. Although they are a bit lengthy, I like that you really explore as much of the game as you can. I hope you do the same with Subnautica. I came across this game when I was bored and had it sitting in my library. I finally decided to play it one day and now I’m on my 7th play through of it. Not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but you don’t have to get so much of the creep vine materials at one time since it’s always there. You can also drop things like that to free up storage. Well enjoy this game and I do hope that no one spoils it for you.

[@MonEvenStar]

Thank you for the advice. I simply can't help it. My loot Goblin takes over and then it's tickets. Lol. I will be having a deep dive into this one. For Science! What a marvellous game

[@jeremymcginge9768]

I've never played this game, I've only ever watched people play it. The first time I watched someone play was when it was a blind playthrough so even they didn't know but it was still easy to figure things out. All I can say is I know you steamed it but take a few extra seconds to actually read the items that you can craft, what you need etc. The water locker for example is quite literally called a "waterproof locker" which should be an indication of where it needs to go and it's description is "maintains position in water" which is also another hint. I haven't watched fully through this video yet so far now I will say, stop eating raw fish... It's raw lol you're not gollum from lord of the rings 🤣 Also it says on the fish "-h2o" which means you lose hydration every time you eat the raw fish, you should never consume anything that gives negative anything lol unless you have something to counter it. Storage also isn't too difficult early as your first priority is getting only the resources needed for starting items, then focus on making storage for extra resources.

[@Robisme]

Dropping your first sea glide was both hilarious and sad.

[@RaddSpencer]

I'm about an hour in (watching this on and off, not all at once) and Aspore is right, you're figuring the game out a lot faster than most people whose videos I've watched. I've literally seen a guy go hours before realizing they can build an air tank, and multiple videos later before even realizing the rebreather is an option.

[@michaelnjensen]

The chat and moderators in chat are literally spoon-feeding all the info, before she has a chance to figure things out herself.

[@RaddSpencer]

@@michaelnjensen Aww. I wasn't reading the chat. Aside from a comment now and then.

[@wmarian5027]

[@Failtasmagoria]

Was excited to see another Subnautica playthrough and was a bit disappointed to find the soundtrack turned off. The music, aside from being brilliant in its own right, adds to the experience so much... also hoped for a facecam to watch the visceral expressions of discovery. I'll continue the series for now as, aside from the two mentioned points, it's an enjoyable experience thus far.

[@MonEvenStar]

I do turn the music on, I was not sure it was streamable. I mean who do I ask and trust, but realised that the music was streamable. No Face cam is my preference, I used to use one. Thanks for stopping by. Stay awesome

[@Failtasmagoria]

@MonEvenStar understandable. The Devs pretty much survived off of streamers and youtubers during open development (they're gonna do the same open dev with S2) so they never struck anyone with claims. Plus they were smaller and indy back then, they couldn't afford to make anyone sour on their work ;) Understand the facecam choice on your part. It's just one of the more enjoyable parts of Subnautica streams - watching expressions react to events. You have a Below Zero playthrough and planning on playing early dev S2?

[@MonEvenStar]

@Failtasmagoria I am indeed planning on S2, I'll probably finish up below zero before the release of S2 to hype it up a bit. Stay Awesome

This is the 1st video I'm watching from you and I like your style, but I have to say (and I'm not saying it to be mean, I actually think it's kinda funny), when you're laughing you sound somewhat like a Mimic from Dark Souls. 😄

[@BuddyEarl]

before i chose to watch this I told myself I would only do so if the lady streaming had a UK style accent. I was not disappointed.

[@glenmartin7978]

You cant be too much of a loot goblin in this game, storage and inventory spaces fill very quickly, still collect lots of Items but figure out what you need them for before collecting too much and running out of space

Maybe I just wasn't paying attention, but I wasn't hearing any music in the game. If you turned off game music, I'd really suggest turning it back on. The soundtrack is excellent and very atmospheric.
