This video contains spoilers from the world and story of subnautica please beware when it comes to the world of subnautica i occasionally like to ask questions that are purely hypothetical in nature simply because well i like the idea of exploring their potential implications whether that be something huge living in the void or What the crash zone used to look like before aurora’s unfortunate arrival topics which don’t necessarily have a solid answer but in the game’s lore and yet in my opinion trying to answer them can be a lot of fun and today i’ll be discussing a question just like that One that i’ve seen mentioned in the comments many times over and over and that is what if the aurora landed in the void i’ll be taking information given to us by the game directly and trying to apply it to this hypothetical scenario so that we can get at least somewhat of An idea of what the game would have looked like if the pilot decided not to aim for shallow water so without any further ado grab your pda get ready for some theorizing and let’s go now to first give this video some structure here are three main questions i’ll be Trying to answer in regards to the aurora swimming through the void number one how would this affect riley’s survival number two how would this affect the rest of the crew and number three how would this affect events in below zero also before we start just so we’re all on the same level I’m going to be presuming that the aurora crashes into the void from which point onwards it is no longer accessible i mean yes i suppose it’s possible that the ship would actually float but then it really wouldn’t be any different from it being in the crash Zone so let’s just say it sinks to the deep dark depths and can no longer be reached using the equipment available in the game so to start with the first question how would riley be affected well initially he wouldn’t given that his life pod detaches before the aurora hits the ground He should still be relatively fine landing onto the planet and waking up from being temporarily unconscious the next few hours of exploration might actually even be easier for him given the fact that a there would probably be no radiation from the aurora and b it is possible that because of this Reapers wouldn’t even be present in the crash zone since their attraction to sound might lead them to pursuing the ship into the void effectively speaking riley would have a pretty good time up until the time came for him to retrieve the blueprint for his escape rocket since that blueprint would most Likely be resting somewhere thousands of meters below his prawn suit’s crushed depth limit which effectively means that yes if there is no other way for the blueprint to be sent to him which i’m assuming there isn’t he would not be able to get off the planet for all other aspects of survival like Building habitats or even curing kara he should be more or less fine given that you can find pretty much all important blueprints scattered about without ever visiting the aurora now for how the lack of a reachable aurora would affect the rest of the crew we don’t really have much to go off of Here but yes it is possible that more would potentially survive since we know of at least one life pod they try to get to the aurora and well presumably failed perhaps it not being available at all could make others more focused on finding a safe place to stay Such as the island and trying to establish some sort of a base given that we know of several additional survivors who made it to the island already i don’t think that theory is too much of a stretch now for perhaps the most interesting aspect would below zero still happen in my opinion Most likely though it might take a bit longer let’s talk this through there are two core reasons why below zero can happen originally rightly curing the planet and making it back to altera to presumably inform them about it now in the aurora less parallel universe riley should still be capable of curing Kara sooner or later and even though he wouldn’t be able to make it back to altera thinking about it logically they just lost a brand new capital ship which was already on a supposedly quite important secret mission in around the same area as the degassi if that isn’t enough reason to properly Investigate then i don’t know what is we do know that it takes around 13 months to get to 4546b from wherever the aurora took off so it might take them a while to get there but eventually i’m almost certain they would given the fact that riley would have probably Still seen the effect of the quarantine enforcement platform on sunbeam he should reasonably be compelled to deactivate it and thus when another alteran vessel came they would probably be able to safely land and rescue him now yes there are a few possible variables that could throw these theories for a loop For one you could say that maybe the only reason you can find the blueprints for everything outside the aurora is that the explosion scattered them about but given the fact that you can already find them in the world before the explosion i don’t think that’s what the developers Intended additionally you could say that maybe since the aurora’s position would be hard to detect if it were in the void the sunbeam could arrive to a different part of the planet meaning they would get destroyed without rightly seeing them but given the fact That he would have a ton of time on his hands through exploration i think he would eventually disable the quarantine enforcement platform even if he never realized it was actually a weapon so there you have it guys as crazy as it sounds i don’t think the aurora landing in the void Would actually change much o’reilly would probably still be able to survive below zero would probably still happen although possibly later and hey some additional survivors would maybe still be alive which would certainly make riley’s time on the planet a lot more comfortable but that brings us to the end of this Video so i hope you guys enjoyed taking it back a little bit with these speculations and if you have any additional theories or things to add to what i just said here please make sure to leave that down in the comments i would very much like to read it If you enjoyed this video maybe consider liking and subscribing both of those would be very much appreciated and with that i’m gonna see you all in whatever next video i make bye bye Video Information
