Subnautica - Nice To Sea You 

Oh good, a game that requires Jon to keep an eye on the oxygen, while giving him reading material underwater.

DO A SERIES PLEASEEEE I love this game so muchh So many things to discover and explore!

PLEASE MAKE THIS A SERIES! Your temperament and genuine wonderment is perfect for this game Jon, I for one would love to see it.

I love how Jon perfectly understands exactly why the ocean is terrifying.

Jon's first freakout is over the only giant creature in this game that can't hurt him. lol

*Underwater Base-Building 101 with Jon!* Step 1: Lay down two foundation platforms Step 2: Build the base off to the side of the foundations...

I LOVE how Jon actually scans stuff. A lot of people that I've seen play this game just didn't scan stuff and it was infuriating.

“If you see floating rocks, there are floater on it” Oh John, you dont even know how right you are

"There's big things over there..." Those things are quite small, Jon.

Funny things Jon says during this video: "Fins. Flipping perfect." "Titanium, oh, that's the last thing I need." "I think he's looking for something small, and/or more edible for him." "I've made terrible decisions." "There were so many tabs I didn't realize were here." "I've accidentally skipped a couple of steps."

I'd MUCH rather see this as a series than live streams. You've only had a single series going for quite a while now, I think this would be pretty well received.

I'd love it if this was a proper full-on series. Could you possibly want to do that Jon?

Tip: all of the life pods have a PDA with playable audio with important lore stuff. You missed one back in pod 4. This game has a great story you can only find by exploring. have fun!!!!!

I would seriously love to see this become a series! There's so many nice little hidden things in subnautica -- and it's not all scary!

Typical Brit, crafts his first knife and instantly thinks about mugging the stalker fish :D

Jon you will fall in love with this game. Just remember to be thorough when scavenging, even with perception at 9 it's easy to miss things.

Never thought I'd get chills from a thumbnail... Never thought Jon would play this either. Let's get terrified.

RU-vidr : *tries Subnautica* Me: How long until they run into a reaper.

The first thing I would like to say to you, is that there are numerable species of shellfish that simply _do not die._ Only growing larger, more powerful, and in requiring more food to thrive. The second thing, is that we have explored less of our own oceans than _the surface of the Moon._

I just want to know how the hell he managed to Mr. Magoo his way past those first three crash fish.

This is absolutely the type of game I'd love to see Jon do a full playthrough of. Partially just because I want to hear his voice when he sees/hears a Reaper Leviathan.

Under the sea, everything's scary oh listen to me! You'll be screaming, and always missing things! UNDER THE SEA!

Oooh Subnautica! Please Jon, make this a series and finish it! There are no jellyfishes there, so do not worry (actually there are vines that look like jellyfishes, so yeah...) Edit: also, Subnautica is rather short game. Shorter than Outer Wilds for example, with more exploring and crafting than figuring out clues

Oh no, Jon. We *absolutely* recommended this to troll you. What you've seen so far is the kiddie pool. The deeper you go, the more dangerous and weird it gets, and it goes down to ~1000m. And yes, the plot will take you down there. You are doing better than I expected, though, finding the cave sulphur and figuring out that *a given plant may yield different resources depending on whether you pick it up or harvest it with a knife.* This is an important thing to keep in mind as you continue through the game, as you will eventually be growing food in soil and you'll need to use the knife to get more seeds to replant.

Jon: This feels like a very big moment.... Habitat builder! *Makes habitat builder* Jon: So, this is like a buildy thing... God bless him.

I sea Subnautica, I click

Please make this a playthrough and not a stream! This game, like Outer Wilds, THRIVES on your own slowly growing knowledge and understanding on the world around you, and spoilers would be very detrimental to that, especially this early. That said, I would be so very, very pleased to get to see you experience more of this game. There's so many incredible places and mysterious surprises waiting to be discovered!

I would love to see a subnautica series! There's a lot of things to explore yet.

watching you repeatedly muse about "where to find cave sulphur?" while you dodge the exploding fish.. and not finding the cave sulphur... is the perfect balance between annoying and endearing.

Jon: there's something really big over there. Me: laughs in Leviathan

But it's okay Jon! Because the dev's didn't want you to be able to fight back against the horrors, there are no good weapons either!

🍴 SE-RIES! 🍴SE-RIES! 🍴SE-RIES!🍴 Please, please, please, make a whole series! And I would recommend playing alone, not streaming, people really tend to spoil things in this game. And don't look things up. Also, there are lot of folks that say this game really help them with their fear of water, swimming, ocean, unknown, etc. It's a really beautiful game and it isn't that long either.

Jon: is British Also Jon: Plays Subnautica My Brain: *RULE BRITANNIA, BRITANNIA RULES THE WAVES*

Jon, I went through all these emotions when I started playing the game but muscle through it's a really good story and adventure after the initial panic attack

I love this Jon, I hope you do some more reading in the codex it's such a fantastic feature. Careful reading will reveal so many secrets, options, and story beats. e I think a livestream would _ruin_ this, at least at this point in the game, at least without a strict spoiler rule. There's a lot of 'ah ha's that you really want to fully own and experience yourself, and the data in the PDA will lead you there without having to ask chat or a wiki.

"There's not that many terrifying ocean creatures" Lol

when you float on the ocean it's scary, when you put your head under and see what's going on beneath it's not. any area with inhibited or limited sight is always scary - it's your instincts protecting you.

This needs to be a series. I get the feeling he’d enjoy the Prawn Suit.

32:05 when jon finds cave sulfur

Thank you for braving the jellyfish and other water horrors for us, Jon.

Rule 1 of Subnautica: everything tries to kill you. Rule 2: the planet tries to kill you Rule 3: SERIOUSLY everything tries to KILLL YOU

20:48 "There's something really big over there!" Jon really has no idea about the creatures in this game, does he? Just wait till he gets eaten by the emperor leviathan.

Part 2 is going to be the arctic dlc, and the title is going to be "Ice to see you"

I really hope this becomes a series. I really want to see you learn the story as it unfolds.

Here's hoping the promise for a series on this wasn't lost in the shuffle of other games Jon loves coming out or getting remakes or getting cool dlc.

A Subnautica series would be amazing. The game is best enjoyed without any prior knowledge about it, the exploration feels really great.

Finally, I've been looking forward to this for a very long time. One of our most enjoyed games in years!

Oof Jon lol... the survival knife is basically a butter knife. Yes you CAN kill things with it but it takes many hits and doing that is likely to get you killed. The knife is really more for harvesting things like coral and plant samples.

12:41 he still thinks the ocean is safe how precious

My worst nightmare... I’m in a dark cavern filled with water, the cave roof is above my head, I look down and a two small glowing points at beneath me, enlarging. I’m freaking out and as I look down a sea massive jaws with razor sharp teeth open wide and getting bigger, a roar and everything goes black.

I'm happy that he wants to keep playing this

Man I hope we got a full series of this game. the story is very good

My only tip for this game to avoid spoilers. Assuming Jon even reads these. Is read the PDA information on things you scan. Which Jon already does. I just hope he's reading it thoroughly enough.

My favourite memory form Subnautica was my journey deep below the surface. I scouted the way first and found a very good place with underwater vulcanos, perfect for creating electricity. I get back to main base, spend half hour turning my ship into mobile HQ with farms, water and storage, then probably another hour listing on paper everything I would need to make fully functional base deep in caves, packing everything into my ship and finally going there. This was probably overkill, but I really wanted to do this. It was really unique experience, I never felt like that in any other game with adventures

‘The aurora’s where you get stuff!’ Oh no... Also, red grasslands near ship are bad - reaper leviathans! Jon’s fear of big sea creatures has only just begun!

I think a live stream of this would spoil to much and distract from the experience

I REEEEEEAAAAAAALLY want this to become a series, or a couple of streams.

I keep re-watching this in anticipation of the eventual series(probably 2021). Crusader Kings 3 is nice for now though.

Please make this a series! I can totally relate about the fear of the ocean, especially the deeper areas. But it makes it that much more "real" to play (or watch someone play). Completely understand if you can't make it a series, but if you could please do! It is such a good game and I love watching your vids.

Please do a series and start it off with a "Things Jon got wrong".

The base-attached air pump is basically useless. You could use it to get oxygen from your base over to a nearby resource-rich area so you don't have to surface, but you're much better off just using the seamoth, which refills your oxygen when you get inside as long as it has power.

I love this game, especially after watching Neebs play it.

So a few tips Jon. 1. the Rebreather will give you more O2 efficiency as you go down. But at some point the pressure will be too high. which is when you will need a vehicle. 2. those little boxes fromt he wreck. normally have one side open on them and allows you to scan the component. 3. the Aurora has a ton of valuable and rare scans. and rare loot to get. 4. collect quartz whenever you can. (you will need a lot of materials.) 5. when you do build a vehicle there will be upgrade slots. some let you go deeper or decrease energy consumption. (the cyclops thermal energy recharger is a must.) 6. you'll sometimes find deposits of ore. you need special equipment to use them. 7. you can carry more then 1 O2 tank at a time. it will slow you down a bit. 8. you can put your hands down to increase swim speed slightly. 9. the Seaglide is your friend it also has a light. and you can turn the holo-map off if you want to save battery. 10. if you find a Reginald catch it. and put it in storage. live fish put in storage will not rot. with the reginald is the best food fish. and you can breed more with the alien containment. 11. Batteries have a charger function. your base can use solar power to slowly recharge batteries. there are other deep-sea ways to generate power. 12. you can build a water purifier in your base.. that's about it. I don't want to spoil too many things for you Jon. Have fun. ^_^

Cant believe jon topped up his O2 only for him to stay still underwater researching for it to go back down to 80 then explore

Yeah this would be a great series. The story is really compelling, after watching your fallout runs, you'd have a lot of fun with this, if you can get over the natural fear of sea monsters...

the bad things don't show up until later when you go deeper or close to the front or back of the ship. the sea glide has a flashlight on it. the big snake thing that life pod 17 got attacked by is in that cave system and they are hostile.

So glad to see this series. Even though I've played it through to the ending 3 times I'm love being able to relive the sense of discovery in this game through watching you. So glad you're enjoying it.

Make a SERIES PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE !!!!!!!!!!! This game is AWESOOOOOME :D

I'm crying Thank you Jon for playing this

This needs to be a series. This game is amazing.

I am so, SO incredibly happy to see you play this, Jon--and even happier to hear that it's coming back in some form. I have terrible thalassophobia, and you pretty much nailed a lot of the reasons why the sea--despite how much I love it--is also terrifying. I avoided this game for the longest time, and it was only a week ago that I watched another RU-vidr play it and decided to give it a try. I've played almost nothing else since, and the whole time I've been thinking how much you would LOVE this game. Puns aside, in terms of mechanics and story it is SO much deeper than it looks; you've barely scratched the surface. And you're right that it is outstandingly suited for a livestream, with its recurring loops of peaceful travel, resource-gathering, and inventory management to catch up on superchats, and the way hints from the chats can help find things you overlooked (like the PDA you looked straight at and didn't take, or all the sandstone you swam right past while talking about it...). I really hope you play this through to the end, and get into establishing proper bases in the world--it's the sort of game you can easily lose yourself in.

I love how I just had the thought yesterday how I didn't think Jon played Subnautica yet and how great it would be to see him cowering in the lifepod, refusing to get into the water and then he released this.

Jon: Afraid of big, bad alien fish... Also Jon: plays a game with the reaper leviathan in it.

Yes! Jon, thanks for giving this one a go! I can’t wait to watch how you approach it!

So glad that John has also accepted my head cannon that your character just names all the creatures they find really obvious stuff cause they're not that creative.

So glad you enjoyed this! I just started my second play-through. I am also terrified of sea monsters. The beauty of Subnautica is that even though there are far more giant and terrifying things out there, you CAN always retreat back to your lovely safe base in the lovely safe shallows.

"So. So so so so so... Now Mr. Stalker, we shall see who the one being stalked is." Narrator: It was, in fact, still him. It would always be him.

APSOLUTELY PLEASE MAKE THIS A SERIES! You seem to be getting the hang of this perfectly well and it seems so perfect for you. This game is amazing and I really want to see you explore this more.

So basically Jon is terrified of things that look like haunted vaginas.

Yes yes yes... more of this!!! Cant wait to see you get down into the underground ocean. You have barely scratched the surface of this amazing game.

Johne i love that you are playing this I will share this to my friends and spread this around

I really really hope people like this video, this could be a fantastic series. Jon, this game is great and full of great discoveries and adventures.

PLEASE make this a series, there's an entire storyline and lore to discover on top of being a survival game. A livestream wouldn't do it the justice it deserves. And yes, not everything wants to eat you... yet...

Jon a nice trick to do is get a Peeper and have it in your hands... then approach a Stalker from the front and he'll eat it from your hands. and you'll have made a friend. ^_^ Also on that note some creatures eggs are made in Alien Containment and will become pets for you.. with a special cutscene at the end for your little friend. Oh and did I mention there are Dragons in this game.

This was a joy to watch, I had a smile on my face throughout. I thought it might be right up your street Jon. I would love to see this become a series, just be prepared for long periods where you need to keep exploring til you suddenly find a way further in the story. It’s well worth the effort!

I would love to see this become a full fledged series 🥺

42:42 My exact reaction to this part of the game! The ocean freaks me out, too. Please, finish it. It's worth it.

I hope you do a series on this, one of my top 5 favorite games ever.

"Giant ocean leviathans aren't necessarily bad" -famous last words of reaper food jon

I’m so happy you’re playing this!

Please make this a series! I'd love to see you discover more of this game

Didnt know how much i wanted you to play this :D

God, I can't wait for more of this series. Jon, you are in for a fucking treat. Subnautica is a masterpiece of a game. I can't think of any other game that so perfectly blends exploration, discovery, wonderment and horror.

great vid! would love a series of this

Very much envious of you starting this game for the first time. I'm still waiting on them to finish below zero so I can get lost in that. Please consider making this a series. I understand your fear of the water, however it truly is a good game when you delve deeper into the story.

If you can grab at least one more point of perception and thoroughly explore crash sites you will be surprised how much there is to it. Please make it into a series it would be so unbelievably rewarding!!!

Please make this a series!

One more vote for a full series, the game deserves it. You deserve it.

The floating pump can be connected with pipes downward to provide additional oxygen so you don't have to go all the way to the surface. I hope to see a full series. Such an awesome game.

This is one of my favorite games of all time, and it is always fun to watch people experience it for the first time.
