Barotrauma explores exactly this sort of thing. What's worse than the ocean? An alien ocean under kilometers of ice on Europa (Jupiters moon).

The only shame is that you need a fairly tight-nit group to crew a sub effectively for the full experience as it's designed primarily as a cooperative multiplayer experience. It can be hard to gather a serious team in such a complex game that is also fairly niche.

Basically marine animals that have a jaw but lack the ability to suck water into their mouths to capture their prey (which is partially what goblin sharks are doing when they extend their jaws, lots of fish have similar, extendable jaws, bass for example also have extendable jaws that allow them to quickly suck food into their mouths) have a set of pharyngeal jaws that pull their prey into their throat, similar to how we use our tongues and the motion of the muscles in our esophagus to swallow our food.

As far as that Scene in The Sea Beast goes, part of the reason the Tonal Shift is as severe and intense as it is, is that you as the viewer know _exactly_ how smart Red is. (the Creature's name is Red Bluster for anyone who didn't see the movie) If Red wanted the Hunters dead, they would be with no hesitation. If Red was a simple beast, the Hunters *would* be dead. But she left them alive, and sank deeper into the ocean. Without a sound, without a struggle, her message was Crystal clear to them and to us: "It would be so easy for me to end you, don't make me remind you of that." No matter who you are, no matter your status or wealth, you are nothing more than a pest to be ignored (at best) compared to Red.

Both Subnautica and Soma are masterpieces, and I can only recommed you play them if you havent yet. They are very different, but they both expertly prey on your fears rather than being "scary" in the traditional sense. The makers of Soma, Frictional games, also made several other games - The Amnesia and Penumbra series. If you want the same feeling of horror outside of the water, these are some of the games that first pioneered this sort of slow rising dread style horror in the mainstream.

Although not technically ocean/deep space, Jacob Geller uploaded a video a while back regarding the outer bounds in video games, i.e. the infinite emptiness of game engines that becomes apparent once you peek beyond a video game's invisible walls. The reason why I bring this up here is because the ideas Jacob Geller discussed in that video and the ones you present here are similar yet different, both hinting at an overarching fear of incomprehensible vastness - which is probably what cosmic horror is, at its core. Also, highly recommend you look up a game called Water Womb World. It's a very short indie horror game which also takes place at the bottom of the ocean. All of Yames 's (the developer) other games are amazing as well.

Fear of the unknown especially the unseen is a very potent especially with how our brain treats it as a survival instinct. With Space, even though it is so unfathomably vast and unknown, it is still visible. With the sea, at best the furthest you can see is around 3 mile. In space 3 miles is nothing, your mine keep speculating the worst case scenario about what lies beyond that 3 miles. There are probably nothing, but that uncertainty will kicked your survival instinct to eleven.

I underestimated thalassophobia most of the time because I only had the experience through games like Farcry 3 or Stranded deep where 3 meters great white is the main source of horror and I thought real ocean wouldn't be as scary. Until one time I tried snorkeling in shallow waters about 4 meters deep and on the corner of my eyes I saw probably around 1,5 to 2 feet long barracuda floating still few meters from me. It didn't get closer but not swimming away either is the scariest part. I get on the boat and bail and proly never gonna go snorkeling again. I can swim, quite well I think. my swimming teacher used to put in a 5 meter depth pool when I was 6 yrs old. So drowning isn't what I'm afraid of I did tried swimming in closed enclosure of a juvenile black tips, they were fed before I jumped in so not at all dangerous.

In spite of the cute art style, hokey humor, and Stardew Valley-like mechanics, when you venture down there as just your average everyday scuba diver and you encounter more and more of the mysterious underwater world hidden practically beneath your sushi bar, it left me a little fearful to push on further. It's no Subnautica, but it still has that eerie uncertainty to it. Especially since they did a DLC crossover with Dredge. Imagine being in the water with the abberations, rather than just pullingthem up in your net.

And while I don't personally fear waters, vast, deep or otherwise, I respect them with far more reverence and deference than, say, a handful of asshole billionaires who no doubt fed a significant number of tiny fish and other aquatic creatures with their liquefied remains. One of my favorite early episodes of The Magnus Archives (MAG 51 - High Pressure) also tackles thalassophobia wonderfully. In fact, if you've never heard The Magnus Archives, it's an amazing podcast chock full of phobias.

The ocean is grouped into the same fear category as space- The Vast. The connection between these two fears is (I believe) quite prevalent; stemming from similar concepts such as fears of the unknown and simple survival instinct (space and the ocean are both *very* hostile environments for a squishy human form, after all).

No matter how big the fish is there's only one real monster here, humans

Albeit non as intense and dramatic, I can sense some inspiration from SuperEyePatchWolf. And I'm all in. Great video.

I just got submatica and my only complaint is how creatures move and how they interact with the water. They don't look like they are in the same game is the only way i can describe it. They kinda look like they are just floating around and the water around them practically doesn't respond to them at all. It takes me out of the game seeing things move so unaturally. Other than that it's a great game

I'm going through my first playthrough of subnautica right now. I've been spoiled of a few things, I know what happens when you go into the edge of the map(even though I've never even been that far out) I know a little about that lost river thing and those giant leviathan bones. I have only caught a single glimpse at a reaper leviathan, I have seen them in videos but not up close in game. I am not looking forward to when I do.

Dude Jesus Christ no thr first time you sail into the big octo on accident is terrifying. I also think when you run into the frog God in the maelstrom scary. And obviously if you happen to run into the ghostship though I don't think I've ever accidentally ran into it.
