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.

[–] riot@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week 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.
