The ascender worm would have kind of been a funny one because one of my biggest issues with both games in terms of realism was the fact that not only could you ascend incredibly fast with no consequences, the air bladder was almost designed for that exact purpose! The idea of a creature doing pretty much exactly what the air bladder did would have been kind of funny and it would sort of force the developers to implement a decompression sickness mechanic. Although thinking about it a little bit more, with this game set so far in the future with phasegates, virtually infinite air supply for submersibles, and massive undersea bases, it's not so crazy to think that such an advanced civilization could possibly invent super efficient countermeasures for decompression sickness. Not to mention with constantly having to swim away from predators while performing complex tasks, especially before having a submersible, it would probably be rather annoying to not be able to get to the surface as fast as you can from any depth.

The iceworm is such a cool creature in concept and theory. It's genuinely so badass. But the way it was implemented was really lackluster. It's honestly downright silly at times. The way you constantly get booted out of the hoverboard, the way it just sometimes stands there and does nothing, etc. I know this might not seem ideal, but I honestly wish that the iceworm would have been implemented as a highly scripted encounter, with actually polished cinematics and interactions, and way better animations. I know that the whole point of subnautica is that the creatures are living breathing parts of the environment and ecosystems rather than just set pieces and decorations, but I feel like the iceworm is unique enough that it could fill that slot. Maybe make the iceworm the "giant ghost leviathan" for the ice biome i.e., if you go too far into the plains, the iceworm spawns and starts violently chasing you. But like actually properly chasing you, it doesn't do that weird swan neck thing. And the longer you stay in that environment the more iceworms spawn. Imagine speeding across the glaciar wastes and having like 5 iceworms chasing you until you eventually die. It would make for a really compelling encounter, rather than just walling it all off.

The Leaf Sheep is even weirder than a symbiotic relationship with algae, which is common.

That way they can directly preform photosynthesis, and are likely the only animal capable of that.

I'd be curious if you'd be somehow able to do a speculative video on the horizon zero dawn games. Though they're not entirely evolution based, a lot of the machines are made to fill specific niches within ingame lore where past fauna has gone extinct. They also help terraform the planet by filling those niches so that it can be more habitable. Ex: Grazers dig through dirt and soil, possibly taking out weeds and making room for new seeds to be planted and grown. Water machines like Widemaws work to filter water, probably so stuff like algae can't grow uncontrollably. Some machines are even built to help each other or prevent pollution. Watchers and burrowers keep a lookout for herds so that they don't fall into danger. Scrappers and glinthawks collect scrap that they bring back to cauldrons to be reused to make new machines. In some cases, more aggressive machines like thunderjaws and fireclaws are made to fend off potential threats like humans trying to take down machines for parts.

Did the dev team ever have concept art for the skeletal forms we can see in Subnautica? The leviathan (databank entry: "Gargantuan Fossil") in the lost river zone with the juvenile ghost leviathan comes to mind first, of course, but also the skeleton outside the Lost River Laboratory Architect Cache (databank entry: "Ancient Skeleton") , and any others that are in the game.

16:17 You know what would've been cool? If this leviathan is so big it's eyes might've been a problem, then why not only have its head sticking out? Here's the pitch: An Ice Dragon Leviathan got stuck inside an iceberg or something, and now only its head and part of its neck are sticking out. We can place it near an important story area that is relatively easy to get to, so it makes that area more intimidating. It will still freeze any vehicles that try to pass by it, and any players that get hit by its ice directly are instantly killed. So how do you get past? Well, the creature has to sleep, right? So you just go to that area at night! Yeah, it might be a bit ambitious or annoying after you complete the story in that area, but I think it would be a neat little puzzle.

Being that Alex Ries is from Australia, I wonder if it's just a coincidence that there's an island named "Rottnest Island" just off the coast of Western Australia. It's famous as the only home of the Quokka (looks like a Wallaby, but smaller and cuter). The name came from Dutch explorers mistaking them for some kind of giant rats and naming the place "Rat's Nest" in Dutch.

You should do an analysis on the Rhinogrades AKA: the Snouters And/or on the speculative creatures from Capcom's Monster Hunter game franchise!

The rotnest would’ve been horrifying but so cool! I wish we could see it in gameplay

Even though its cool, Im glad the Gardener Eel was left out. It would've made the Vent Gardens not nearly as impressive, since you'd already have encountered the idea on a small scale.

I hope you do something like this again, I know John Dunlop the realistic pokemon and prehistorica guy through a friend, he's a huge fan of speculative biology fan and would probably be up for a guest video.

Re: The Rotnest, if anyone ends up seeing this, they should know that CA's description of the ophiocordyceps fungi is slightly inaccurate or misleading. Specifically: the fungus takes control over the ants' ganglia (its brain-equivalent) but the idea of that turning it into a "zombie" is incorrect. The ant isn't dead when it's infected. Ophiocordyceps only controls movement. The ant is aware of what's happening the entire time.

All of these concepts are awesome, and I would've loved to see these creatures in-game. For some reason I really love the Rotnest, maybe it's because I'm a fan of fictional parasitic organisms.

i wish subnautica had proper scale? depth perception? (idk the term but basically everything seems way smaller than it actually is)

I wouldn't be surprised if Subnautica was responsible for a sudden boom in popularity for speculative biology/evolution. Half the fan art I've seen were people coming up with entirely unique and well-written species.

I like to think all of these aliens actually exist on 4546b but just on different areas of the planet that you don’t get to see

I’d say my personal favorites are the Kitewings, the Grabsquids, the Bulldog Trapjaws, the Ascender Worms, and the Ice Dragons. Also, I would’ve liked it if the Shadow Leviathan looked like THIS. 15:31

I’ve heard of decompression sickness as well as nitrogen narcosis which wasn’t mentioned in the video, but it makes the idea of diving way more terrifying. Go up to fast and you’re insides bubble like soda and pass out. Go down to far and you start hallucinating, next thing you know you drown because you took off your mask and tried to breathe the water. From a gameplay perspective it might be annoying for some players but it could also be as a way to prevent players from going straight up to avoid danger or diving to deeper waters without proper equipment to lock off certain areas of the game. Subnautica somewhat already has that with the rebreather and the depth modules though, and the decompression sickness would be annoying as it would be harder to go up to the surface for oxygen.

I would have liked it if the ice dragon was friendly to you, knowing that a human has to little nutrients to actually eat yet does attack the vehicles but also hunt other leviathans and would choose the biggest leviathan out of whatever is near it also maybe protecting you a little bit.
