I think the reason the architects couldn’t hear the Sea Emperor’s telpathy is because they’re not organic. They are data given sentience and bodies.

[@Omniscient_AI]

They also talk to each other through a network, so they probably just kept talking, but yes, also because they aren't fully organic and are just sentience from data in a mainly organic shell (for Al-An at least, I don't know about the others)

[@TaskForce-ql3bx]

⁠@@Omniscient_AIi think that network probably shuts down foreign attempts at the telepathy. Or they simply couldn’t hear her call due to their brain structures. Maybe the Emperor got lucky that a more primal species found her.

[@shadowmaniac2195]

Yeah that’s what I was thinking after playing below zero. Since they are made out of both biological and mechanical parts and there minds can be uploaded and put into storage I just thought that it was a more mechanical mind that the sea emperor couldn’t speak with telepathically. That or she wasn’t tuned into the right radio frequency in their heads lol.

[@juliaboskamp9666]

Or because they see eachother as the same and communicate very different from humans and sea emperors

[@titanhail0495]

I always thought of the seemingly throw away line of "The visions are getting worse" from Bart as just delirium taking hold of him from the infection and never as the Sea Emperor talking to him, but now that I've heard it...that makes perfect sense. The revelation has my jaw on the floor.

[@The_Real_Coral_Grimes]

Bart had so much potential man. It’s a shame what happened to the degasi crew. I hope Marguerite has a role to play in subnautica 3, and I hope Riley comes back as well. Imagine if the two of them met

[@tombstone8227]

The main reason the Sea Emperor couldn’t communicate with the Architects is most likely because their brains were mechanical

sea emperor is probably one of my favourite characters in fiction fought to cling to life for so long just to ensure that life on the planet would still be around to be saved when someone arrived who could help hatch the eggs any time i reach the hatching cutscene i usually spend way too long hanging around with her just to say goodbye before leaving so she can finally have her well earned rest

Probably there's a bunch more, buuuut they live where the Ghost Leviathans live, so made sense the Architects never went to find another one...

[@housewilma4904]

and at minimum with the cut early content from below zero the baby sea emperors have all grown up healthy and happy meaning. the potential for the species to return exponitially is now possible even if wild sea emperors are near extinct.

Sea Emperors reproduce asexually, meaning there won’t be any inbreeding. The species will be back :)

Now I personally don’t realllllly believe this due to kharrah this most likely is not true remember that if they were did exist kharrah would be gone and the planet saved but since there is still kharrah she is the last one left and saying that it’s just that part look at below zero the frozen levithan got kharrah so yes she is the last one but she did hatch her eggs and there will be more when they reproduce

My theory is that the Sea Emperor felt resentmet towards the architecs. In some of the dialoges it has with the player it mentions: "I will give you freely what the others tried in vain to take" and "To you, I give the secret willingly", revealing that even with the world ending, it saw the architects as "unworthy" beings, or at least not deserving to know how the enzymes worked. Why? Let's remember that the Sea Emperor is pretty inteligent, to the point of being phylosophical and undersating how it's chamber worked, being aware that it conected to the outside sea through pipes and that the big thing in the middle was a portal. It even knew the specifics on how to make the enzymes to fully imitate the perfect breeding conditions for it's eggs. It had both intelligence, counciousness and a sense of morality. It's possible that it tried to communicate with the architects through it's psychic powers, but the architets weren't able to get the message. Chances are the Sea Emperor TRIED to communicate with the through other ways but the architets treated it like a regular animal that just happened to be useful, and far from trying to get it's help they simply use it like a resource and nothing else. Having no regard for it's life, it's eggs, or any other life. The Sea Emperor probably took notice and decided to not cooperate with them, and instead trying to find it's own way to solve the problem while being confined. That's probably how it realized it could send peepers with small portions of the enzyme. Then we came to the planet and we could actually understood it, and the game unfolded from there

[@dropmaestros3680]

14:20 The Architects couldn't sense the sea emperor's telepathic influence because when studying things at the quarantine enforcement base you can find some evidence that the Architects possessed much more advanced psychology than other creatures and thus they were probably resistant to psychic influences. Also, even though I haven't looked into Subnautica: Below Zero much, I believe that it is pointed out that the Architects used to transplant their minds from their original biological bodies to biomechanical ones, so this is another point to consider when talking about why the Architects were unsuccessful in hatching the sea emperor's eggs.

You'd think that the architects would be able to analyze the sea emperor DNA and find the gene for enzyme 42, then insert that gene into a bacterial plasmid for mass reproduction like what we've done with insulin. Aren't the architects supposed to be a super technologically advanced race? Also, I find it odd that a single bacteria species is so deadly across so many different species from so many different planets. Oh well. The Subnautica story is cool enough that I won't begrudge such plot holes. And who knows, maybe alien biology is just that different from Earth biology (although that's such a copout).

[@gamesandspace]

Well there might some problems with you see the khara isn't any old bacteria in fact it has some extremely terrifyingly fasy mutation rate Like a virus and along with that we've already seen bacteria evolve to be completely immune to most antibiotics maybe the architects did discover a cure for one variant but there were thousands more per day along with that I have a sneaking suspicion that enzyme 42 is an enzyme designed to kill all bacteria as such it made it capable of killing khara even with it's mutation rate even more evidence to back this up is in the brain eating ameoba which never evolved to fight against the immune system but it can completely ignore most modern treatment methods and kill you suoer fast

[@RylixBlizzai]

it could be that it's origin within the digestive tract of the emperor means that it's simply intended to assist in breaking down microscopic organisms or disabling the organisms while another system breaks them down thus it tries to do it's thing against the kharaa and forcing it to go completely dormant, leaving the disease as a sitting duck for an immune system to deal with

[@MakennaWilson-hb9pr]

Warning: Don't read this if you'll just say "I ain't reading all that" My theory is that the cuddlefish were originally hostile leviathans (bigger than the current cuddly cuddlefish) about the size of a reaper leviathan, and the architect scientists studied the eggs. They somehow replicated the leviathan offspring and created the cuddlefish, which they suspected may be immune to the kharaa due to it being artificial. They were able to make it so that the leviathan's descendants (The Cuddlefish) were the size of a tiny leviathan offspring when full grown, hence the reason the cuddlefish is so small. When the Cuddlefish was found to not be immune, the architects ended their experiments on the cuddlefish and only had 5 eggs left. The architects left the eggs in several different areas, not knowing they were in a frozen-like status. The leviathans most likely preyed on everything smaller than them, before the eggs were stolen and tested on. After the Cuddlefish were created, they most likely evolved into eating algae or crustacean-like creatures that were on the planet. All before They discovered the Sea Emperors could produce Enzyme 42....

Hence leading to the great Sea Emperor experiments 😀
