I haven't even beaten the first one.

I get to the point where I have a sub capable of diving deeper and then I get too scared to dive deeper ๐Ÿฅบ

I also cant handle the thasolphpboa, but i did enjoy watching a streamer finish it.

Thats also a good option for those of who arent fans of the depths.

Detecting multiple Leviathan class lifeforms in the region. Are you certain whatever you're doing is worth it?

It took me YEARS to even get out of the first 3 biomes. I have bad thalassophobia. Get yourself the Seamoth Sonar, it hugely reduces the void/wtf is gonna eat me feeling. Thats how I was able to overcome it and eventually beat it, and ive beat it twice now. Its so absolutely amazing and worth pushing through.

Damn, kudos to you for playing a game like Subnautica, when you have bad thalassophobia. Or did the game make you discover this fear? Still, if so, respect for continuing to play!

Nah, i knew i had it. I've almost drowned twice in my lifetime. When I was a kid I got caught in undertow and then as an adult a tubing event went wrong and I was pulled behind a boat by a rope around my arm and neck. I know thalassophobia is more of a fear of the abyss/unknown but since that last incident pretty much anything involving natural bodies of water gives me anxiety.

[โ€“] riot@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Holy fuck. Those are some pretty nasty experiences. No wonder they led to you having such a fear. I honestly don't think I could play a game like Subnautica, if it was me. So I think it's very impressive that you have, and even beat it twice. You're made of sterner stuff.

You definitely have earned any mistrust you may have for that harsh mistress.

Took me a couple of times to get through it. For the same reason. Well worth it in the end though.
