Down The Liminal "Hell-Hole" of Early Access Subnautica

[@zinc2zinc2]

i have spent so much time in the early access Subautica, it felt so mysterios and otherworldly. i never thought about liminal space back then, but man is that a good word to use to describe it. so creepy. i also remember finding a human model in the middle of the old lava zone that scared me. felt so creepy.

[@TheLastBacon]

Yeah it's just something about the endless walls with the same repeating texture which drop off into the abyss that really get to me :)

[@zinc2zinc2]

@TheLastBacon that too! The finished subnautica feels more natural and earthlike. But the endless oceans, the strange terrain and drop offs to the void in the early access feels so alien like!

[@TommySaurus_Rex]

@@zinc2zinc2 I mean it is kinda alien like, it’s litterly an alien planet, but yeah I agree

[@abuchi2248]

@@zinc2zinc2 Yeah, early access Subnautica was definitely what awakened my love for the liminal vibes found in unfinished games and out of bounds areas. I still remember watching Markiplier's video where he ventured into the unfinished lava zone and found that Wasabi One player size ref. It's such an amazing feeling to find stuff like that in an otherwise empty, murky environment, surrounded by monolithic terrain.

[@ultmateragnarok8376]

I don't think the hellhole was removed so much as moved elsewhere. It's the precursor to the mountain pass that leads to the Lost River and the lava zones. Though I do think that even littered with reaper bones, the translucent life of the river and the destroyed precursor facility, the early access one retains a more eerie feeling - the same one the void has before the ghost leviathans were added - because you know you're not meant to be there.

[@TheLastBacon]

Yeah that is a good point :)

[@Trainboi1983]

HOW MANY LOST RIVER ENTERANCES ARE THERE?!?!

[@ultmateragnarok8376]

@@Trainboi1983 Six, technically. Two from the lava zone, one of which leads to the cove tree and the other to the pit in the pass to the mountains, and four to surface or near-surface cave biomes - two to the blood kelp zones, one to the deep grand reef, and one to the border between the moutains and bulb zone. The lost river spans most of the crater in size, hence its own distinct internal biomes.

I remember watching youtubers play back when the “farlands” and “hell hole” were still in the game, the game continued getting updated and it really felt like people forgot about them, love the attention to detail in your videos, keep it up!

[@TheLastBacon]

Thank you kindly! Yeah this really takes me back to a different time :)

[@Krajenda]

Man, I still remember watching people play these versions back in like 2014. It seemed so cool and mysterious. I remember having the same feeling when I bought BZ in early access, but unfortunately, same as with original Subnautica, it never lived up to it's full potential.

[@TheLastBacon]

Right?! I really miss those days :)

[@chadofchads7222]

What? You really think subnautica didn't live up to it's potential? The only reason I can think you'd say that is the missing multiplayer, wich granted, would make it way better, but it's still an incredible game

[@TrillionDeTurtle]

same man, BZ's old story could have had a lot of potential and i just liked it bc it was during lockdown it was the newest game i'd bought

[@patroller1592]

Looking at the lava castle in this build is insane. Like there is a giant cave rn next to it and massive bodies of water afterwards. Definitely more true to the original concept arts of the lava zone! Both work well but i prefer the old against the new because of the massive space. (Probably better for the sea dragon AI and maybe an explanation on why there a seamoth attack animation in the first place.)

[@TheLastBacon]

Yeah exactly :) It looks so imposing in this build!

[@Kartoffelbauer1000]

Anyone else remember when jacksepticeye dug through the earth to follow a signal just to stumble upon the inactive lava zone, man good times.

[@TheLastBacon]

Takes me back! :)

[@AgentSapphire]

The open locker was a thing in a lot of early subnautica builds iirc. I figured it was just decorative. I think this was just before the devs actively made getting into "spoiler" areas impossible. Hence why the route I mentioned in the previous video didn't actually go anywhere.

[@TheLastBacon]

Right that makes sense yeah :)

[@jaykegonnering9156]

look i know it would be a huge undertaking but the way you keep on making references to the creepy pasta and just the overall horror of these builds gave me the idea that you could work the creepy pasta story into your videos slowly breaking the fourth wall almost like an ARG i know it probably won't happen but it's a cool idea and it would be a shame if i didn't suggest it.

[@TheLastBacon]

Now that's an excellent idea! :) Love it!

[@Ark_Strike]

Thanks for revisiting old subnautica early access builds, this is such a nostalgia trip for me since these were my introduction to subnautica, I'm almost tempted to go back to them myself for funsies but you are clearly a braver man than I am Also, this makes me think about the concept of a game in which you have to go back to early access builds to unravel misteries, something like saved games are compatible but the deeper you go, the creepier it gets kinda? I dunno, maybe someday someone will read this comment and make something or maybe someone is already working on it or maybe it already exists, I dunno

[@TheLastBacon]

I feel the same :) This really takes me back to my earliest days with the game - felt so spooky and mysterious back then!

[@katharyncurry5079]

As always, I love your videos. They bring back a lot of nostalgia of playing the game with my little brother when he was in middleschool. And of course, with the nostalgia comes the absolute terror I felt/feel playing it hahaha.

I seem to remember Markiplier finding a version of the Hellhole early in his playthrough back in the day, and discovering a T-posing Riley model just standing directly in the middle of the cavern. I was hoping to see it in this video, but it might've been a different version of the game.

[@RailsTrains]

for me it's a pity that there are no such tunnels to the lava biome, that it used to be through crashzone through deepgrand and dunes, because if it were, it could explain the story of reaper leviathan, how he got there, because it suited me, and because he passed through deepgran and lostriver, I don't think so like he really got it and with those tunnels they could explain the leviathan reaper skeleton

[@TheLastBacon]

Yeah I guess there are some lost river entrances that are kinda similar? Just more narrow :)

[@countrycoffeecup7772]

I love seeing these early builds of Subnautica. It gives us a glimpse of what the game used to be and what some things could have been if the idea stuck. The early builds do give that creepy vibe, as they seem empty and lifeless…

[@joshuasaldanha8d103]

the lava castle really gave me the creeps, especially in the early versions.

[@TheLastBacon]

[@Nylonical_Nonsense72]

I honestly think they should have kept this sort of liminal/uncanny feeling (even tho it was very likely not on purpose on the early access). It would r e a l l y add to the horror and loneliness feeling of the game, no matter how many times you've finished the game, there would always be this weird feeling to it...

[@TheLastBacon]

Yeah honestly it would be awesome to see an underwater game built around liminal spaces like this :)

[@yan-amar]

The lava castle and the zone around it looked really good and unique, there's nothing that looks like it in the released game.

[@kieferholster4900]

Yay more more spoopy early access. This is my 2nd favorite series right after the lore videos.

liminal spaces and the new fad with them has brought me back to a specific set of memories. when i was young playing fps games, i would sometimes make my own private lobby and just explore maps alone. wondering through a multiplayer map and exploring it completely alone, thats a liminal space core memory of mine.

Thank you for finally looking at the hell, hole. I feel like they should have kept in, also on the way down to the hell hole and the lava zone its self was horrifying in the early game because theire was no noise no red glow witch made it horrifying, and fun fact the hell hole was in the game updates way after this, I think about halfway to the release but I'll have to look

[@TheLastBacon]

Yeah it is definitely a creepy way to get down there :)

[@allorey2506]

I always was scared but also curious, I wanted to see where that leaded, what was waiting me down there, specially since I didnt even thought about the possibility of it being just an unfinished area, for me, that was truly a biome, an empty and eerie biome

Anytime I watch earlier Subnautica videos and see things like the entrances to the lava zone being the hell hole as well as an opening in the Dunes, it makes me wonder what made the developers work on entrances there, and then scrap the ideas entirely and go with a different placement. Like, I'm glad we at least got the mountain corridor, but it still makes the Sea Dragons dragging Reapers into the lava zone make a lot less sense without the openings in front of the Aurora as well as the dunes. Like, yea, if you had gone those routes, you would have missed the Lost River. But also those would have also been a lot more of a dangerous route to get down there anyway
