7 Genius Ways Games Stopped You From Escaping Them: Commenter Edition 

You're the best channel out there just saying

this channel is awesome

Why don't you guys cover games with cool secret/alternate endings? That'd be an interesting topic I think

@@divyanshu.26 thats a good idea

Outside Xtra I have two submissions. One in this category. What about brine in dragons dogma? It's similar to the leeches in half life, but it just teleports you back to land. My second submission is top 7 characters you would romance if you could. My submission is Gywn Anwy from kingdoms of Amalur reckoning. If you join the Warsworn she immediately treats you as a competent soldier and very quickly you become her most trusted friend. It's just a shame that there's no romance options in kingdoms of Amalur reckoning.

ROASTED

Hahahahhhahahahaha

oh absolutely! I have subnautica and it's made me genuinely scream a few times. For such a bright, not horror game during the day it sure loves to freak you the fuck out

I am terrified of the ocean and sharks. So I had a hard time playing subnautica at first. Then I played free mode and saw all there was to see with scary monsters and was actually a little disappointed. I feel like they missed an opportunity for giant shark monsters, or Cthulhu type monsters.

@@somberstricken4424 I liked that they went very original with the creature design! Cthulhu-like monsters would be too derivative, I think.

It's litterally the first game mentioned in the list...

@@sekai9906 I think they meant it deserved it's place on the list

Most likely the living version of the gargantuan leviathan from the lost river. But that one was just a baby, and at full length it would be taller than 3 Empire State buildings when it’s on its tail. So imagine what the adult would be. Or, actually, you probably shouldn’t

@@hypername1 fun fact there's a mod that adds the adult gargantuan leviathan to the game. It's terrifying but also really fucking cool

dont ghost leviathans grow in size till they die? couldnt that just be a massive ghost leviathan?

This was debunked! It's actually ambiance from the mushroom forest biome - you essentially fall far enough down that the game detects your location there!

@@beetlescrem996 yep

Chemical plant zone Act 2

And it was a brilliant game to boot!

I miss that game 😭!! Our ancient computer played it like a dream though some worlds were easier to conquer once you knew what the cheat code was. Those crazy dragon things you could summon were great for dealing with the tetchy witch you were neighbors with, hands down.

The original Phantasy Star did that with their overworld maps too!

Asteroids and Pacman both got there way earlier...

That first line doesn't play when you get into the dead zone. It plays when you enter the Dunes for the first time.

THEN YOU REALISED?!

*enters aquatic hell* "you know I have a slight feeling maybe I shouldn't be here..."

You are the type of person that ventures out into the nightmare infested forest, ignoring all warnings just to be mauled by the next monster showing up out of nowhere. To be fair, this is not as terrifying as what Markiplier found when he went into the Magmachamber Facility while it was still under construction. That shit gives me fucking nightmares...

What a spooky comment

I don't think they're "defense" turrets. Pandora was basically a prison planet.

Seriously, whoever invented that MMO deserves to be court martialed.

@@MasterZebulin the creator died

@@remuslebeau6570 What, in series?

Yes, Kirito killed him

@@remuslebeau6570 Did that solve the "can't log out" problem?

Sharks are friends! No really, I love them. They're among my most favourite animals.

This is true since science reliably tells us they react to blood, motion, and can tell humans apart from their usual fare of fish and seals among other things. I think I heard about ones that are friendly to tourist divers in the tropics because they get fed bits of meat without getting aggressive. Not people munchers at all!!

They're honestly just the puppies of the sea

The only reason that they bite humans is because sometimes they can mistake a surfer for a fish

@@BlueLoneWolf527 so....we can domesticate them is what you're telling me?!

I never had a fear of the ocean until after I finished Subnautica

Imagine it in VR. That would be true horror.

Dominic larratt dont even breathe that into existence

As opposed to when I played it, I saw it as a survival lite (less grindy than typical survival games) game set on a primarily aquatic planet. Later on I watched other play and heard them calling it a horror game. There was no point in the game that was scary to me. I found the game rather relaxing.

Ever play Stranded Deep? Those of us with Submechanophobia &/or Thasslasophobia have a hard time with the game. Subnautica is a bit easier for me personally to digest because of it's more cartoonyish graphics. Stranded Deep is just pure horror for people like me.

They already did that one in the previous video.

Have you tried ahrieking in water?

@@thespaceman4808 our screams are mainly vibrations on air, but water animal's screams are vibrations on the water, so, yeah, for us it's hard

BFKC the art of shrieking underwater is just subnautica.

Isn't water kinda poor at transporting soundwaves?

@@oniemployee3437 Sound travels from particle to particle. In air, there's more "gaps" between particles which makes them extremely easy to vibrate and carry the sound. If a sea creature has the ability to make a shriek in water, it has the initial ability to create sound in the water around it, creating a ripple effect as this sound travels along the more densly packed water particles around it. Basically, water's extremely good at transporting sound bc there's enough of it close together, with juuuuust enough gap for it to actually vibrate still. So the inital vibration is difficult, after that, it carries.

And the lore explanation for them makes sense

@@diablotry5154 Do tell, I'm not aware there was one

@@nickmurphy2936 There's 2 ways to explain this: The Dahl mining employees were all ex-cons, So they put the turrets up for protection and to keep the ex-cons from walking away and causing mayhem OR They're still made by Dahl, however outside of the boundaries there's a dangerous world with far more dangerous monsters than we can imagine, They're just set to shoot anything that moves in and out of the area

@@federalbureauofinvestigati6491 The "Warning!" sound byte mixed with how fast they turn to lock on still makes my heart skip every time I accidentally step out of bounds. Those guns are no joke.

And the lines they say when they lock on you with a calm female AI voice. "Warning! This is your last warning!"

Yeah it should've been on the list

You can actually out swim them if you move the analog stick quickly

It is actually possible, with very good gliding or using one of many glitches, to get above even the turrets and explore Gotham (The easiest way is to get on the end of a railing and spam Freeze grenades to gain height). Although, there's no collision, so you can never land, everything is low res and there is no sound apart from the wind in your cape. It's beautifully eerie; I'd totally recommend it.

also, in Dishonored, there are invisible walls. ever tried swimming to the other side of the wrenhaven?

Those damn hagfish! As if I wasn't already afraid enough of water! And I live in a coastal area, surrounded by the stuff! Nightmare fuel.

Screen effects that can kill you. That makes them leeches even more terrifying XD

However in Half-Life 1 you can I think.

@@john_stromboli You can, the original Half-Life leeches aren't there to keep you in bounds so if you run into them you can just hit them and they die.

It certainly has all the accuracy you expect from the history channel, and the fixation on ancient aliens

You mean people _didn't_ regularly leap off multi-story towers into piles of hay?!

Oi! Scientists! Get on that shit!

Well, ideal History Channel, maybe. The actual History Channel version of the Matrix would be the Matrix, but stupider.

Oh, the Beaudilaires (I probably spelt that wrong) from A Series of Unfortunate Events?

As soon as I read this comment, I immediately recognized that it was about A Series of Unfortunate Events, which has very well done adaptations.

@@pinkythepinkslime6170 I don't think u did

well, hello, hello, hello baudelaires..

These are more like alien fish than actual leeches They've got eyes !

"colorless world That you slowly recolor" that reminds me of katamari forever where the kings memory gets wiped out and you have to help him remember by completing certain goals like getting a katamari's size at a specific point, getting a katamari at 10,000 degrees Ect.

I agree those things tortured my poor child mind and set off deep fears of the ocean and sharks! Fun stuff that. Great games though still in my memories as the first ones I ever played

Frodo Baggins It’s funny how people are afraid of sharks of any sort. They’re simple sea creatures following their instincts whereas dolphins and porpoises on the other hand actually have the intelligence to recognize, understand, and be evil. They just got better PR I guess.

I can make it more terrifying. Having I eat you when your not in the water. It happened to me in rock village on the pontoons. It ate me after I fell in the water but got back onto the pontoons.

Looks like something a kid made out of play doh how do you find it terrifying lol

D K9 it looks like a shark and a goldfish had an illicit affair.

Wasn’t that in the first one?

@@littleshopofeldritchhorror6224 I think that it was in The Arrival

I swam to misty island and back

@@kyleanderson449 wait really

@@williamthepigeon1848 Yep

@@williamthepigeon1848 it is possible to jump over and dive under the lurker shark, although it's Insanely hard. And you have to manage it many times.

You can actually out swim it if you move the stick quickly to do the fast swim glitch

Damn that’s crazy

The fun part is that it actually impacts the story heavily

And most of the plot finds you trying to find a way around it after it kills the mentor.

Yeah the Fizz co brand walls that actually kill your father figure

Sunset Overdrive was good. You can try paying attention to the plot, or you can understand that the real plot is "it is a video game" and proceed to do all the wacky shit that entails because wall running is awesome and fall damage is for losers.

Same, I think I was 7 when that game came out on ps2, and i remember loving it. I tried swimming out to the Misty isle, you see in the intro cuts energy, and out in the open ocean it slowly came up at me. And for 10 seconds of terrified spin jumping above it, I paused eight before it ate me, and haven't played the game since. Still terrified of the ocean. And I'm in the Navy now. Go figure.

Ong💀

bruh same, both the shark and plant scared the sh*t out of me in J&D

Another victim here, then decided to play Subnautica bcs im a masochists xD

My sister told her friend I was scared of the Lurker Shark. I had went to get something to drink downstairs & they were upstairs in her room. They went into my room (I told them to keep out as every time my sister's friend came over, they'd be in there picking on me, taking my stuff, not putting it back in it's place & calling me names.) Anyhow my sister's friend unpaused my game & put Jak in the water. I shouted at them & they went off angry.

They featured that in a video not too long ago, about ways games punish cheating I think?

@@justmonifer Yeah, but it still counts...

@@MazTheOriginalGod no

This was in the original video

Guess its not creative enough

The adults are filter feeders* (The juviniles are cannibalistic)

Why to have a heart attack once you forgot you left it in your pool and dive in

You'd need some kind of glow-in-the-dark paint and waterproof coating. With that you could probably paint something resembling the Ghost Leviathan's markings on a transparent pool noodle, assuming you can find one. Which you probably can't. As a potential replacement maybe you could paint a regular noodle black and then add the markings, making it easier to see during the day but making it look transparent at night? Anyways then you could cover it with the waterproof coating, keeping the paint from washing off. This would seal the air inside, meaning it would still probably float. If you wanted to mimic the shape of the Ghost Leviathan, you'd need to get multiple of the clear pool noodles (Or paint multiple pool noodles black) and cut them out into a rough approximation of its shape before gluing them together and doing the painting. OR, and this is probably the most terrifying of the options, you could find some kind of transparent wire, like a cord. Then you need some kind of sheet of clear plastic, kind of like saran wrap but less clingy, along with the glowing paint and waterproof coating from earlier and finally some kind of airtight transparent container (you'd need multiple of these). Form the wire into a basic skeleton and paint it accordingly, then coat the entire thing. Attach the flotation devices to the inside in order to make it float. OR OR OR the more I look at this thing to figure out how I'd make it the more it looks less transparent and more very reflective, because the nature of the ocean around it makes it hard to tell the difference. So if you wanted to make something that looks more like it does in the game, you would probably want to make the noodle shape from earlier and cover it in something silver and reflective. This would work best in open water during the daytime near the surface, and would be more noticeable as a trick of the light during the night time. Which is honestly probably preferable if you think about it.

And Ellen can do a wee segment on the evolution of Assassin's Creed water and look come on guys this writes itself.

It does, kinda. You can call it to scare fish in the Tribal stage, and there's an Easter egg where it comes out of the water to wave at you in the civilization stage . . . rarely.

It would be cool if you could fish for the sea monsters to sell for sporebucks if your an economic nation

Let's hope Insomniac Games' Spider-Man: Miles Morales will succeed where Naughty Dog horrendously failed at The Last of Us II: the well deserved status of Game of the Year.

Explanations in this video are highly redundant, as i noticed. Very badly made and the fact this vidoe should not be this length is obvious. Noticed that?

My eternal frustration in that game, since I enjoy to climb at high points and jump into the water (don't judge me)

I mean, it makes sense. The game was made when swim mechanics were still fairly sketchy in games, and the Arisen was raised in a seaside village. Of course he would know how to swim. So it makes sense from a mechanics standpoint as a way to not have to make those kind of controls. But it's cool that the Brine consumes everything that enters it, even dragonkin, rather than just being something to prevent the player from swimming.

Yes! I was thinking this exact thing. The brine fucking sucked, especially when I was trying to jump to some chest or gold bag and accidentally fell in.

Solution: Wind harness and double vault. Both within the Assassins role.

All right but have you tried facing an Alien in a closed up and abandonned space station? :P Subnautica at least gives a sense of wonder once you get past the sense of dread XD

@@ForestRaptor isolation is the worst 😅

I love that the sense of fear changes as you learn to navigate the world At the start even the small-ish stalkers are stuff from nightmares, and have you swimming away faster than sanic goes after rings, while at the end of the game you just look at a reaper leviathan in the face and just tell them to sod it because you have more important stuff to do

@@cacs2201 Once you get a stasis rifle and keep a spare battery or two, enemies become more of a minor annoyance than a threat. Though prior to that point, most players will dread every new fish they come across that can't be eaten. The worst to me though is always those exploding bomb fish, because if you're not expecting them it's going to be pure panic once you hear their screaming, as you try to escape their blast radius......

I swam to misty island and back

Join the thalassophobia club. I started to watch this video because it's neat, saw Subnautica and knew where it was going... once they started showing open, empty waters I had to just pause, skip around a bit, then just go to the next number because NOPE.

Its not irrational in Subnautica!

Did you know that Europa has oceans 60 miles deep? Ours are seven miles deep. Just imagine the Star-Wars level "bigger fish" in THAT pond.

As a person who's developed a fear of the ocean after watching too many documentaries about the terrifying stuff we know is there, let alone the stuff we don't know about, I don't find your fear irrational at all. Worst part is, I grew up on beaches, love maritime history and ships and grew into my fear of it. I blame the Discovery channel(back when it was actual documentaries and not another trashy reality tv network).

Ah yes. The Brine. At least it's equally hostile to everything, including dragonkin.

Holy shit! I was just playing Dragon's Dogma like an hour ago! Seriously underrated game! Its my most favorite game in the world. And yeah the brime is a jerk lol.

Glad I'm not the only 1

You can actually out swim it if you do the fast swim glitch
