Primal Xenolith - Gargantuan

Both tons of homework and hours of Elden Ring/Monster Hunter Rise have held me from finishing this track for a while.
The Gargantuan Leviathan is originally seen in Subnautica as a massive fossil of an extinct specimen. However, it was brought to life by the Return of the Ancients mod. I hope you guys enjoy this fan-made Gargantuan theme music!

The best of your tracks with no doubts. But I recommend you to keep the image of the original track, cuz it looks scarier and fits more with the track than the new one. Anyway, congratulations

[@FrightMorph]

I can visualize the Gargantuan being a massive model in your cyclops radar instead of a simple, pathetic speck

[@Redhedgehog06]

I like that but if it was a dot on the radar it would be MASSIVE!

[@PML7_OFFIC]

DUDE THAT WOULD FREAK ME OUT SO MUCH I AM KINDA NEW TO SUBNAUTICA AND OMG THAT’D BE SO SCARY LOL

[@yingtyson4493]

i would imagine there would be a point in the void when u reach far out enough where a single dot appears on your radar. It gets closer. Then massive jaws appear on the radar beneath the dot, and it disappears. Then you know you're completely fucked.

[@FlyLeah]

It’ll be bigger than the radar

[@adamfreeman9493]

I imagine the radar wouldn’t even be able to comprehend it’s size and the whole thing just turns red or just glitches out and displays some kind of error.

[@syrathdouglas1244]

“The six eyed devil eel, the living constellation, it’s said that it only moves when hungry, and just the twitch of its tail can create tsunamis.” And so a cult forms dumping meat and bodies into the thing’s mouth to try and keep it from waking up to hunt.

Imagine this, Subnautica 3. Reilly steals a space vessel from alterra and flees back to his home on the crater, however he is shot down by someone who will be important later, he misses the crater you can faintly see the aroura from above, as you descend into the void you see a ghost and a cheli clash, they send you flying on accident and your vessel crashes into a cave, blocking it. You can exit into the cavern but the door in your vessel at the other side is jammed by something and you need to fix it to progress the story. During the story you are hunted by alterra bounty hunters, but here's the catch. They're armed and your not, and you can't take their guns as they will explode if the target picks up the gun. Anyways, that's just context. Here it is! During the end of the game you get the atlas submarine (or something similar larger than cyclops) it is the only sub in the game that can travel that deep. You enter the cavern but then your sub powers down and you get electrocuted, as you wake up you see another submarine with a huge gun on it, the man in the other sub says: ''Looks like you're all out of power. How unfortunate, not even your own sub is on your side, come out now, and I'll make it hurt less.'' Then all of the sudden a gargantuan leviathan breaks through the ceiling and consumes him, he panics and fires the canon causing a cave in and stunning the leviathan. You begin to run and it breaks free and is quickly coming towards you. Your pda says: ''Warning: A giant predatory lifeform is exhibiting extreme agressio- *Static*'' Then the pda says, seemingly hijacked: ''Are you ready to die?'' in a creepy voice. A chase ensues and this plays.

[@cmdrdyatlov]

Seems fitting for fish that is 2x bigger than the entire playable map Great track

[@RandoGrunt]

I love how this track feels like a Dark Reprise of the Abandon Ship track, with the feel of this adding to the intensity, the horror, and the powerlessness against an unstoppable force. The ethernal howls in the beginning first minute helps gives an element of supernatural to it too, especially given the thing is implied to be sentient by the way it seemingly hijacks the PSA to ask, "Are you ready to die?" after the AI gives the Star Wars reference on the odds of survival. Heck, the electric techno parts of this also go well with the Garg because its got a few electric abilities to it, seen usually when its eating a Ghost Leviathan or chomping on your Cyclops lol. Like another person put it, it convoys the multiple feelings the Garg presents to us in all of its forms. And I'm having difficulty here trying to describe those feelings lol. But one thing for sure is, this kaiju-sized dragon electric eel really is something else!

[@Greenlink-kx7ho]

I feel like this convays the feel of the Garg extremely well. You can gather that, whatever this thing is, it shouldn't be here and is some kind of supernatural evil. While you also get the feeling that its an unstoppable force of the natural order. You just did a solid job crafting this

[@Dovah21]

Yeah I agree on that; the Garg's roars sound like there's some deep primal anger in them, like an unearthly rage that rips at its throat and liquefies any living thing near it when that rage in unleashed. Edit: left out some words

love the bit at 3:00. reminds me of the droning in the track bone fields which is an excellent choice. it plays in the final resting place of the extinct leviathan after all. also the vocals at around 0:30 remind me of the vocals in the lost river theme. love all these influences from the lost river tracks since those are some of the best in the game.

the vibe of just seeing this thing swim around you until it's giant head comes into view and your left thinking "holy shit" as your last moments before it eats you *and* your cyclops..thing tore apart the sunbeam, a ship comparable to the aurora in size after all edit: those last few notes are when i can imagine its head turns to look at you and all you can see is its massive eye..or the last few glimpse you get before its jaws snap shut and kill you second edit cause ive watched it a few times now (listened, whatever) can just imagine the "are you certain whatever your doing is worth it" when it trails off is interrupted by both seeing this thing and it roaring. likeother tracks have this epic fight vibe of you veruse this massive beast, this feels like a desperate "fuck fuck fuck" as you try and run for your fucking life (espiecally at 3:04)

[@N8crafter]

I’m gonna correct a misconception about the sunbeam here: canonically, it’s roughly similar in size to the Cyclops. While it’s much larger in the game, this was done to make the sunbeam sequence look the same from nearly any angle, as a sort of optical illusion

Riley drives into a narrow cave, with robin telling him that ALAN is most likely trapped behind an archetect door infront of him. Using a blue tablet, riley opens the door, with a black void infront of him. Robin's voice is quickly cut off as a shadow appears, with ALAN's obviously lifeless robot corpse flying towards riley. The PDA spouts out something unintelligible, followed by, "Are you ready to die?" The shadow gets bigger as this theme plays

This makes me imagine another sequel to Subnautica, where, at some point in the main story, you actually have to *cross* the void for some reason. And as you do, thanks to some random bullshit- you have to submerge to far below the surface. Say there's some energy field or mines up at the surface that'll blow your ship to pieces if you go near them. But, as you're crossing the void, you begin to notice that something is *very* wrong. You have to be extremely careful while you're crossing the void, and you occasionally have to literally turn your ship *off* as *whatever it is that's down there* swims extremely close by, and will detect you if you don't. After you cross a certain threshold, the *thing* that's in the void with you lets out a huge roar, and you learn that it did that for *echolocation.* You're very close to leaving the void and getting to the next section of the map, but the Gargantuan Leviathan now knows *exactly* where you are. You have to push your ship to the absolute fucking limits and BOOK IT out of the void as the Gargantuan Leviathan gets closer and closer. All the while - this is playing.

Just a short story, but here you go. He was driving his sea moth. Searching endlessly, his PDA finally gave him a terrifying message. “Biological Dead Zone, cause unknown.” He knew he must investigate. He took his seamoth down and down, further and further from the last point of land. He pinged the sonar. A reading appeared. What? Where? He swiveled around, and saw the tooth, coming right for the windshield. He screamed, and hit the dashboard when the small sub lurched. The creature smashed the sub with its tail off further into the abyss, where it was never found.
