Don't worry, 1. we would love for this to become a series as subnautica is an amazing game, and 2. just number these videos like "The subnautica experience part 2" and so on. Don't bother with a second channel.

The reaper leviathan is the scariest monster I've ever dealt with in a game, which is why the newest game was a bit disappointing, because it didn't have that one monster you really didn't want to see

[@a8lg6p]

Yeah, some of the leviathans in BZ COULD have been scary, but they made it impossible to avoid them, and this made it impossible not to notice that they were just harmless nuisances. Regardless of dangerous they actually were in SN, they were just howling in the distance, which let you think: don’t know that they’ll do to me, and don’t want to find out, Better just not get close….

I was just playing this...and let me start out by saying this is a hardcore world. I was going to go fix the aurora and brought my cyclops for some reason. A piece of debris didn't spawn in until I was inside of it. So when it loaded, it sent my cyclops flying into the void. That was the most terrifying moment of my life.

[@cwhynot3320]

Same I got several dreams all about Subnautica! Even when below zero came out I forced myself not to spoil it. I did that for a year. Then I got the game and I was so excited to play it. I LOVED IT SO MUCH! then I encountered my first *big fish*.... Haven't touched the game sense 😂

[@zeallust8542]

Its funny to think how scared i was of subnautica. When now, its one of my comfort games. I have 0 fear in this game now. I used to be terrified, but now, its so cozy.

[@blom6930]

It’s terrifying for me but it’s still my comfort game 😂 But seriously, how?

[@drugsarebad97]

I built my main base on the island , half is above water on the beach with an amazing view of sunrise and a whole garden of above water plants . It has a ladder that leads to the underwater portion complete with all the essentials,a viewing room , and a garden with every underwater plant in the game . I’m really proud of it

0:20 *Stalker's underground sections be like* "Allow us to introduce ourselves"

[@RichardVSmall]

Yes! You hear the harsh, rhythmic squeaking sound of the rusty old emergency light spinning as it periodically bathes the dank, pitch-black corridor ahead in a dull orange glow. You see a humanoid figure come into view at the very edge of your headlamp's illumination. Before you can react it turns towards you and vanishes from view right before your eyes. You ready your weapon but see nothing, and all you can hear is a deep, animalistic breathing, with dull, thudding footsteps coming closer, and closer, and closer... What could beat that?

[@legionandsons8763]

Tip for any new players. You can make multiple 02 tanks and carry them to get deeper if you don't have the vehicles yet just switch out the tank in your inventory to get more air! I didn't think about that until after about 3 hours in the game had I thought if that sooner it would've saved me a lot of time.

[@InnerRise]

I would like you to continue with the experiences but on this channel. But either way as long as you keep doing them.

[@pmull6784]

I was snorkeling off western Cebu in the Philippines a few years back. There's a section where the depth goes from 20 feet to infinity. It drops off at a dark cliff. It's fairly terrifying.

[@TheHollow0ne]

I agree, subnautica is an scary game and the fact that its close to our fears in the real world makes it more scary. but the thing you said about phasmophobia well, phasmophobia is the same thing it scares you without even trying just the ambience. Yes there are some jump scares here and there but they’re all random.

[@Ladystardust2001]

We would love a series of this series!

[@keaton3889]

I have a huge fear of the ocean and huge things in the ocean. I have no problem with huge things outside the ocean, just something about the ocean that scares me and shakes me to my core.

[@B0LiMs_Artz]

Subnautica is both beautiful and terrifying, it’s perfect, the ocean as wonderful as it is, it’s also absolutely horrifying in the pure emptiness below you, you wait for something to jump out at you but, nothing happens, the suspense is horrific, it’s not even sea monsters that scare me, just the vast emptiness. That’s what makes subnautica great, it both shows the bright and colorful aspects of the sea, but also shows the dark and scarier stuff. Though it rewards you for diving deeper. The loneliness probably makes it worse.

[@B0LiMs_Artz]

Oh yea quick side note, the void is the most terrifying place in the entire game. For reasons I mentioned before. The emptiness, not seeing stuff below you, etc

You should try "Alien: Isolation". That's exactly the type of "atmospheric horror-game" you find appealing in Subnautica.

[@darkhelliadarkfire6109]

Dude I totally agree with u about Subnautica being scary. It's cause u and I have Thalassophobia which is the fear of the unknown in deep waters which is much more common than most think. When I managed to play this game I didn't even make it past the creepvine area cause of the stalkers, and after one of the damn things followed me to the safe shallows that was it I was done. I've got the worst luck with any game that has some horror elements.

[@a8lg6p]

Seems too weird to me to describe it as horror, never found it really scary… I always found the ocean beautiful and awe-inspiring. Scuba dive once and snorkel at night once. Both were arresting (autocorrect…. Meant awesome or something, but that actually works too). Don’t have a hint of thalassophobia, apparently. But it is creepy and ominous AF, and perfectly captures the feeling of stranded and alone in hostile environment and running out of time. My first trip down the Lost River to get kyanite, in a Prawn with no upgrades, not sure if I could even get back up, or if I had enough water and fish to get back, especially if I got lost… Was one of the most tense and stressful and exciting experiences I’ve ever had in a game.

I’ve know, right? Hearing about how they wanted to aim for a less scary, more narrative-based experience for BZ… And what they came up with was a raging garbage fire of a story… But at least they had a black lesbian, which is clearly the most important criteria, alright? I didn’t actually hate BZ… It was ok; just less good in every possible way, and from what I’ve heard, it was a deliberate choice to avoid or at least downplay everything that made the first one a hit.

[@Ashurion-Neonix]

for me subnautica wasn't scary, however I was scared of the edge of the map for a while until I went beyond even the void and went out of bounds to the point stuff breaks, after that I no longer find any aspect of it scary. Instead I felt a different feeling going through subnautica, sheer awe and excitement at all the cool new places i was discovering (especially learning all the lore and creature info) that's why the environment and plausible (asides a few aspects) ecosystems became the reason I keep replaying the game.

[@radoslawmazurekwaw]

[@a8lg6p]

Yeah, seems like usually it takes a while to get multipurpose rooms… We’ll, but if you know where to go, but if you’re just playing the game without any videos or walkthroughs or anything… For a while, times are the only way you can make base. Once I got the room, I just stuck them in corners. Then I saw a video, and was like, wow, you can make with tons of run by just stacking them on top of each other… Never would have thought of that!

[@princesscadance197]

What I find to be the most terrifying thing about Subnautica is it’s closer to the real world than say, a zombie outbreak or ghost attacks. Now, that’s not to say sea monsters exist in our real oceans, but the ocean depths are a real thing, unlike, again, a zombie outbreak or ghost attack.

I put so many hours in this game, exploring, building multiple bases in different zones. Gathering resources to upgrade and go deeper. And then one day I took my sub deep deep down. Entered my prawn suit awkwardly and I got stuck in the holding bay. I clicked all the buttons on my controller and a console popped up. I cheated all over the place after finding this out and essentially ruined the whole experience for me.
