Well Theorists, it's finally happened. I'm doing a theory on Subnautica. This is something I've gotten messages about for YEARS and it was only a matter of time before it reached the top of my to-do list. So, I'm going to RUIN this game for all of you environmental hopefuls out there who have played through and thought you saved the day... because you DIDN'T!

That, and the fact that there's no human savior complex thing going on...the game makes it pretty clear that the only reason you are able to solve the disease is because 90% of the work was done for you, and you just have a little more empathy for...the..end bit...we'll say, just in case anyone doesn't want real spoilers...
Also for the trash that pretty much everything is synthesized to order...I could be remembering incorrectly but didn't the vending machines even actually just basically digistruct everything Star Trek replicator style?

@@retro777br Let alone the Degasii. He even uses footage of the Degasii when talking about the Aurora's impact, so he thinks the ships are the same. Clearly didnt 'deep dive and search' the games lore
It’s like… it would be AMAZING to see MatPat make a real theory but no.
I hate how this video isn't even about subnautica, it's just raising awareness for the oceans.
The creatures in Subnautica are already used to (small amounts of) radiation. Here’s my proof: in most deeper biomes you can find radioactive crystals exposed underwater. The PDA talks about the radiation, and when you pick them up you can hear a Geiger counter make a radioactive sound. Reapers and Sandsharks thrive close enough to the Aurora even right after the explosion where the effects would be highly fatal for us without the proper equipment. Even jellyrays which have barely any protection behave normally in high doses of radiation. We might have killed a lot of the wildlife, but certainly not most of it.
Not to mention the bleeders living A ok inside the most radioactive place on the map
Matpat, a couple of minor things about the aurora. The crash size was probably affected by a few things not stated in the episode. The captain's log makes it clear that he was still steering the ship when it went down with the intent on trying to minimize damage to the ship. He knew it needed to remain intact for a rescue to be possible. This, combined with the fact that the game takes place on the top of an inactive volcano instead of the ocean bottom, could account for why the damage was as small as it was. The aurora might have hit water first and then hit ground after slowing down.
It also landed at on a bunch of holes to the lava zone.
@@striderpup1169 That got covered up, Luckily we still have access to reapers.
@@Selena-hz8yc why
Plus the aurora actually landed on an island and not in the water at all
Also, the crash was caused by the Cannon enforcing the quarantine and the filtered water is made of only a bladderfish, so it's safe to say that the containers are organic and biodegradable
The water bottles in subnautica are actually not plastic. You only need a bladderfish to make a water bottle, meaning that the bottles are fully biodegradable.
Post crash water bottles you mean, those found on the ship prior to the crash are likely plastic.
ua-cam.com/video/XvF7xlZ9PWM/v-deo.html
@@Dino_5500 Given how Corporate works, and the fact that fabricators 3D print *molecules*, the bottles most likely aren't plastics. It would be easier and quicker to make them out of pure cellulose.
Also the fabricators craft by recycling
@@Dino_5500 even if they were they were released in too small a quantity to have any major impact on the planet as such mat pat has made a fearmongering video
Actually Alterra has very advanced trash cans that completely breaks down waste to atoms and safely releases it into the atmosphere, so waste is a non problem if the aurora safely landed
Ah yes, you're so right, it's totally my fault that the Aliens built a giant cannon to shoot anything that gets close to the planet. I'm so sorry.
We shouldve told the aliens that we didnt want to get shot down, what a mistake
Hello Matpat, excuse my possibly clunky use of the english language.
I was really excited about a Subnautica theory because of the incredible lore this beautiful game has to offer. This however turned out to be more of a TeamSeas ad then a theory. Believe me when I say, I'm a big fan of your theories in general, but this time just a pinch of actual research lets it fall apart. Please see the following evidence:
The Impact of the craft being catastrophic:
Logs you can find in the game (e.g. Lifepod 19 Second Officer Keen's Voicelog) confirm that the captain of the Aurora took over manual control and tried to execute a controlled descent of the ship after the midair/orbital incident. As the Aurora was trying to use the planet for a swing-by-maneuver it's trajectory in relation to the surface would have already been flat and due to its speed the craft would be able to hold this flat approach for a while. This would lead to the Aurora hitting the planet's surface at a much more controlled angle and potentially lower speed in the end compared to a "falling out of the sky" scenario, and therefore much less damage to the geology around the crash site.
The waste of the Aurora being a danger to the ecosystem:
While there certainly will be an impact of some items on that ship, it should be argued that a civilization this advanced will not rely on plastic as the material of their products. The fabricator (one of the game's crafting stations), where you craft the basic versions of the drinkable water items in the game, materializes them, bottle and all, from midair using some magical 3D printing laser synthesizing. Even if the bottle was made from polymer (I personally think they are made from metal, looking at the model, or rather from some sort of completely organic material as you can craft a water bottle using a fish as input material only), trash would not be an issue. A good indicator for this is the buildable trash can in the game. Its description says that it "Permanently deconstruct[s] unwanted items and safely release[s] their constituent atoms into the atmosphere." The same can be said for the similar functioning "Nuclear Waste Disposal" which also permanently deletes Nuclear Waste from existence. This technology exists and Below Zero shows there to be an ongoing human presence on the planet, so accumulating waste shouldn't be a thing.
The radiation (could also insert dissolved chemicals) being a danger to the wildlife of 4546B:
As it has been said, the radiation as a result of the leaking drive core would dissipate after a while, should the breaches be sealed. So there is a finite amount of radioactive material/radiation actually finding its way into the environment, that means it will start to be diluted by the ocean. The map we are playing on in Subnautica is called The Crater and is about 2x2km in size according to the data bank entry (Fun Fact: The actual size of the map is almost double that) with the rest of the planet (excluding Sector Zero) being an ecological deadzone with only microscopic and leviathan life. That would mean that the ocean currents would transport the majority of the radioactive material out of this small inhabited crater's area in no time. Your example of the radioactive material from the Fukushima disaster making it all the way to Canada in a really short timespan proves my point. The radiation spreads out, therefore gets weaker and as there is no source for more unnatural radiation to come from anymore, the affected volume of the medium (the water) will be moved and spare the crater.
I sure hope we'll get a Subnautica episode about the extensive lore in the future.
But hey, that's just a theory. A comment-section theory :)
This needs to be top comment..
Dude, your English is incredible!
@@multihacker3695 yep
thank god someone who played the game, matpat although is really a great theorist, he never addresses these points or seems to make himself at the least like he played it.

“The radiation probably killed the animals in the vicinity immediately”
Reapers, actively travelling en mass to the irradiated zone: *I have no such weaknesses*
Yea, they legit survive on radiation- Would you like to hear my theory about that?
@@_-NatureMations-_ no
@@twentypence9163 Ok... I was asking them Lol
@@_-NatureMations-_ what's your theory
@@mememan1546 Perhaps since they are only found places near electricity and radiation(The aurora, the dunes with it's alien things, and the mountains with the alien base) they were created by the Pre-cursors to suck up radiation from the Degasi ship's crash. They would absorb the radiation, but in living with so much of it, went blind from radiation and developed echolocation to help with the murky junk filled waters. They eventually escaped and repopulated, creating the ones we know now, and when the Aurora crashed three went from the dunes(This is why the dunes has the least) and started feasting.
matpat: it is your fault the ship got shot and it is you that you killed everyone and you decided to make the ship go there
me:controlled descent, the tower shot us down
"um actually i'm just a maintenance engineer for non-essential systems"
-Ryley Robinson
I feel like Alterra was probably able to find some kind of biodegradable polymer to use as a replacement for plastic. Especially since in real life we’re getting closer basically every day.
They probably use a variant of bladderfish from a safer planet
Yeah, the water bottles disappear after you eat them, and after the impact you use bladderfish to make water bottles, so chances are you eat the water bottle regardless
Important point (spoiler if anyone cares): blame the “Architects”. The Aurora was shot down, by an automated weapon.
Another important point is time. Time is compressed for gameplay reasons. After all when the Sunbeam attempts to Mount their rescue - they announce they’re more than a week away. It doesn’t take a week before they show.
& of course Sunbeam is also shot down, as was the Degassi years earlier. Humans didn’t doom that planet.
Oh and one more important thing you seem to have missed; the Aurora’s captain stayed aboard to attempt a controlled crash landing. This is why the damage doesn’t match what you claimed would wipe out the whole zone. She didn’t simply auger in at terminal velocity.
Inb4 “They quarantined the planet with the ship battery”
Can’t they have just adjusted the targeting range at the atmosphere instead of ships traveling near their planet?
Since when did captains of ships just nose down the instant they lose all power?
Ever heard of the plane crash in the hudson bay no?
@@dedelblute3946 C5 crash at Bagram. ua-cam.com/video/5fpxm0D46iQ/v-deo.html
Yes, Sully was able to make a controlled landing in the Hudson. & he was lucky to have made it. But that’s exactly my point. The Aurora was “set down” also.

WHAAAAAAT ? matpat ignoring crucial Information to make a baseless claim and call it a theory? NO WAAAAAY
As someone who played the game and loves it to death, this was more than a bit disappointing
Aren't the aliens called precursors? It's been a while since I have played the game but loved it to death, this didn't do it justice.

@@infernoxus1432 I have been meaning to play bellow zero ever since, Subnautica was such an impactful game for me. So I naturally tend to avoid spoilers, and was convinced the ancient aliens were called precursors and not architects
P e n s i
Matpat just coming here to say that if you listen to the lifepod 19 second officer keen's voicelog the captain of the aurora says that he is attempting a controlled decent
the captain sacrificed himself to make a controlled decent and Matpat gave him no credit
as a subnautica fan, I am in pain watching this
Same
Subnautica is literally my favorite game ever, and this video absolutely infuriated me
The player: Cures a virus that would've infected the entire planet and killed everything
MatPat: We are not a net positive for this planet
The virus had been there for over 1000 years, if all life hadn't died by that point it was never going to die form Kharaa
Are We... Really Cure The Planet?
*Or Just Ourselves?*
@@imashadow699 The planet... we release baby Emperor leviathins into the ocean which then released the weird cure blobs into the ocean.
@@GrandGourd I Thought The Blob Was Just For Us And They Won't Make It More 😅
@@imashadow699 Well, enzyme 32 is released by Juvenile Sea Emperor Leviathans, enzyme 32 being the cure for the Kharaa Bacterium.
You forgot to mention the only reason why there was so much trash was because the quarantine blaster shot both the aurora and the degassi ship, forcing them to crash land and not just land. The architects caused the infection to go world wide because they stole a sea dragon egg, and underestimated its motherly powers. Causing all the rest to go extinct. So it’s their fault not ours :)
Exactly. Can't blame humanity for this one. Blame the Architects that used the planet as a petri dish (the disease isn't even native to the planet), and set up an orbital cannon that doesn't even warn approaching ships that the planet is quarantined (and given hints in game, and especially the sequel the Architects were absolutely capable of communicating) before blasting them out of the sky.
Not only did we get shot down but were we even trying to land on the planet to begin with? It's been awhile since I last played but I was under the impression we were passing by and the laser shot us because we got too close to the planet.
@@eviljoshy3402 nah the aurora was trying to land on the planet, their alternate mission was to look for the other ship that mysteriously disappeared on the planet too
@@eviljoshy3402 We had a side mission to look for the missing in action Degasi which was *shot down by the Architects* without warning by passing over and scanning that planet without landing unless we found something. Then we got *shot down without warning by the Architects*. Then the Sunbeam picked up our distress signal and came to help.... only to be *shot down without warning... by the Architects*... I'm seeing a pattern here.
@@sonichegehodge5778 If I undestand the lore right, the Aurora was going to gravity swing around the planet while secretly dropping the search team onto the planet from orbit. I don't think the Aurora intended to actually land.
Remember the Sunbeam crew saying they've never parked a rig that big on a rock that small? Well, the Sunbeam is a lot smaller than the Aurora. I don't think the Aurora is even capable of landing on planets.
if I remember correctly, the AURORA's captain PDA states he remained in the ship to land it in one piece ( aka controlled emergency landing )
Matpat: you caused the death of this planet.
The character who found the cure and stopped more leakage of radiation from the Aurora: am i a joke to you?
Hi! As someone who’s played this game dozens of times, I have a *few* things to say about this theory:
While the area surrounding the crash site doesn’t seem as damaged as it should be, the surface is only a small part of this game. A lot of this game, if not most, takes place *below* the ocean floor in underwater caves. As for the batteries, most of the batteries found in this game are still sealed in Alterra containers when found. Even if the batteries were exposed, and their copper contents spilling into the ocean, copper is already a naturally occurring recourse on this planet’s ocean floor surface. Also, this theory says that tens of thousands of wreckage are unaccounted for because there would be a lot more debris than just the metal scraps, but look not further than the *entire thruster* that detached from the Aurora during its crash, or in space orbiting the planet seen as the Neptune 01 rocket leaves the planet. And even if the negative effects of the Aurora’s crash exceeded the map we are given to explore during the game, the game takes place on a thermal crater risen above the ocean floor. The ocean surrounding the crash site is just an empty abyss as seen by the sheer drop off at the edge of the map. One final note is that the *entire* planet was doomed to the Kharaa bacterium long before the Aurora’s crash, and while the Aurora killed a significant amount of flora and fauna living on the thermal crater, the player onboard cured the planet of the deadly Kharaa and, as we see in Below Zero, it seems to have worked given the only Kharaa we see in the sequel is on a frozen leviathan.
Sorry, not to be “that guy,” but I feel very passionately about this game and its story :)
I understand that the cause for this theory is greater than just a video game and it’s pretty cool you guys are raising money to clean our non-fictional oceans!
Waw, thanks for this long comment, with your points made it makes sense and it defenetly changed my opinion
This is true as I have played through the game multiple times too
I was thinking the same thing most items we find like food and electronics are sealed in boxes
yeah i was bouta say, this dont add up
@@Ethan-_-Lim yep 👍 just beat me to it lol
Overall you've made some very compelling arguments, but I feel I have to point out two potential oversights. Most glaring is that in the audio and text logs you can find scattered around the game, it is revealed that the captain of the ship stayed on board until the very end to make a controlled decent. While not a proper landing, I feel it lends some credence as to why the crash zone is as small as it is. Perhaps it wasn't a proper or gentle landing, but neither was it a full force crash from orbital height. Coupled with a few other theories I've seen, the site of the crash may not have actually been shallow water. There may have been some small degree of dry land, which would explain why the terrain goes so far up to meet the ship nearly all the way around, even poking above the water for a sizable area around the shull of the Aurora.
Secondly, with the exception of the truly absurd number of water bottles required to survive, you don't encounter much actual plastic. There may even be reason to suggest the water bottles might not even be plastic as we understand it today. In some cases, they almost resemble more of a metallic container. Though I feel a lot was overlooked in the creation of the game on that point, as no materials are actually required to create the container the water goes into. The bottle just seems to materialize out of nothing during the crafting process.
Coupled with that, is the food seen on the ship and various cargo containers scattered throughout the environment. Most are not shown to have any individual containment or packaging of any kind (which is only stranger considering most are found stuffed into cargo boxes). Given the technological level portrayed, it's unlikely that food was brought pre-prepared from another world. And although the ingredients aren't shown or explained, the "Nutrient Block" in my opinion most closely resembles something akin to pemmican. A dry, often bready and nutrient right brick with a frankly mind-boggling shelf life that is often made mainly by survivalists today, and historically in many parts of the world. The logical conclusion is that given how technology has taken over, no one actually makes or stores these food bricks, but instead has them crafted at various and potentially specialized fabricators on the main ship (before the crash). As they can not be made by the player, either they were destroyed in the crash, or remain locked away into areas of the ship that could not be reached due to structural damage (or most likely, something simply overlooked in game development).

What happened was that the pilot of the Aurora guided the aurora down to safely land it after the turret shot it down. It can be assumed that with how little damage there is, he landed it safely and successfully at the cost of his own life. There's actually an audio file that proves this, the captain talking to the co-captain about attempting to safely land the aurora whilst mid attempt.

the captain of the aurora tried to save the aurora by controlling the ships decent(making the damage not be as bad)
This is maybe the only theory that Matpat got absolutely wrong, yes, the crash maybe did do something bad, but this video released when we already knew about Below Zero! And that game proves the planet is much bigger!
When he started talking about radiation the first thing that I thought was “well, the reapers seem to be doing pretty good, even though they’re RIGHT NEXT TO THE SHIP”
And bonesharks/sand sharks and misc safe shallows/kelp forest fish living right next to the crash zone in the radioactive area (which is larger than the crash zone biome)

@@MrAskmannen Yeah, it really seems to only hurt you (which is a shame because reapers are so, so scary)
there is a theory that the aurora crashed right into reaper territory and they just learned to fend off radiation or are immune to it because of biological evolution

I like how Matpat sometimes makes really in-depth theories about games while proving that he either didn't play the game or didn't pay any attention to the lore
these kinds of things don't happen often but when they do it's the most entertaining thing on earth
You know you made a horrible theory if a chaos demon says the comment above
Yeah he did the same thing with hollow knight, mossbag has much more in-depth and accurate videos about it
He says "we" killed the planet whenever "we" were shot down by the Precursors. If anything, it's their fault for shooting us down and spreading this raditation. We had no clue about what would be on the planet, and we thought that the gravity sling manuver would work. Whoopsie do, it didn't and the Precursors shot us down.
It's ironic that he brings up Enzyme 42 but doesn't pay attention to the huge factor of the Q.E.P.
Does he even make the theory? I thought he just rips them off Reddit and takes credit for them.
For this one he definitely didn't play the game, the whole food/water packaging thing is completely debunked within minutes of playing the game
matpat: the planet is dead!
me who just kills leviathans for fun: i know, and i enjoy it.
MatPat,
Here's the thing, the player did not ask to be stranded on the ocean planet. The ship was shot down by the planet's enforcer. Players know this because of the Sunbeam. Life was taking a turn for the worst already on the planet. The Aurora was unlucky to cross into someone's quarantine zone. How did the player know. Radioactive material was already on the planet. We just added more, but we assisted the planet in the end.
I would like to point out that the water bottles in Subnautica are Biodegradable, because it states that the bottles are made out of organic matter (aka the bladderfish skin). how else do you think the bottle itself is made when you only give it a fish?

Matt... As someone who actually played the game, I can say that so much of this was wrong.
- Aurora was shot down by the Architect quarantine laser platform and the captain still had some control of the ship, slowing it down enough to not hit as hard
- all crafted things in the game were made specifically out of the surrounding flora/fauna, leaving it to be fully biodegradable
- batteries and the reactor core were all well contained enough to not leak as much as you said
- nutrient blocks had no packaging whatsoever, and Alterra is kinda bad when it comes to treating its employees so not as many nutrient blocks were made
- the Kharaa virus was cured by the player, making the second game possible
- the alien creatures living there already may have been immune to the radiation poisoning, like the Reaper Leviathans swimming around and the Biters + Crabs waltzing and swimming within

While I appreciate Matt's dedication to getting the facts, his information with regards to nuclear power and reactors is a bit off. I've been working in the nuclear power field for nearly a decade and its miscommunicated information like this that scares people. With out context of scale talking about radiation means very little. Explaining the values compared to chest x-rays, standard airplane flights or even bananas (yes they are radioactive) helps put things into context. Additionally the safety features in reactors are typically very well engineered and in the community we study what went wrong at both Fukushima and Chernobyl to ensure disasters like that never happen again.
Matt in the future it would be nice to see you do a collaboration with somebody from the nuclear power field to explain the differences from game to reality. A lot of peoples only knowledge of nuclear power comes from movies or games, which often depict it as bad. No technology is inherently good or bad, its about who we use it.
For example, sailors on board nuclear missile subs (meaning they are powered by a nuclear reactor, as are all active duty submarines in the US Navy) actually received less overall radiation exposure per year then your average person does due to spedning about half the year under water and thus not exposed to sunlight. Meaning living in a small metal tube with a nuclear reactor going 24/7 results in less radiation exposure then just taking a stroll outside on a sunny day.
@@7Seraphem7 just don’t go outside 😎
I was thinking that too. I had to write a report on multiple different occasions about which type of energy system I think would be best for the future of the planet, and it’s always been nuclear power. Of course, my ideal is nuclear fission, but that’s currently improbable. But out of all of them, nuclear has always been the most productive, currently powering like 70% France maybe I think fact check that, the most safe if handled appropriately and legally(Chernobyl was a massive fuckup of so many rules and regulations by Russia and what not to do), and has the most likely future in powering the earth. I’m sorry green people, but wind, solar, geothermal, etc just won’t power the earths current energy need, even together. And I’m sorry fossil people, but the earth can’t keep using it not only because it’s damaging to animals and people, but because it’s not renewable and we’re running out. Plus, green energy also damages the environment, we just don’t talk about it. Nuclear does by far, from my research, which is probably minuscule compared others, the least damage to the environment when handled properly.
Because it is futuristic technology it was most likely a fusion reactor. Or even better, if humans figured out a way to produce large amounts of antimatter efficiently, antimatter is the most efficient fuel possible (100% of the energy is released in antimatter-matter collisions) and if the storage system for the antimatter was even slightly damaged and even an extremely small amount of antimatter collided with regular matter it would cause a massive explosion of radiation. Also that would explain why the computer calls it a "quantum explosion".
I've been telling this for years to everyone I know that's scared of nuclear power (imo the best powersource we have atm): The likelihood of a nuclear reactor going full meltdown like chernobyl or Fukushima is virtually 0, Especially since then they have absolutely outdone themselves in terms of safety measures and security features. And addressing the topic of nuclear waste, I'm pretty sure that scientists around the globe are working on 2 new types of reactors: one where you can re-use spent fission material until it becomes something like the sun has with iron OR a thorium reactor, which would just produce a side product that we can use for construction etc.
I'm no expert on nuclear power or reactors, I'm just a student doing his A-levels. If I said anything incorrect, please do educate me.
This whole video essentially ignores the plot of the game, and the sheer technological advancement the future humans in this setting have made
I know right.
The captain goes down with his ship in order to make sure that it lands in one piece, and before the explosion the aurora is clearly in one piece. But Mat doesn't even acknowledge this, he acts as if the ship had been thrown at the planet instead of landing on it. Everything is downhill from there.
Yeah, also I'm pretty sure humanity won't still be using plastic in the 23rd century.
Humanity literally took-over the Milky Way and Andromeda in this world, so I think they stopped using plastic water bottles.
@@IbrahimAli-vt1fv we probably will, but subnautica bottles are made of organic materials, since the bladder fish skin goes somewhere
MatPat is right for thinking about the explosion and crash, but as others have said it was a controlled crash and the explosion was above water. 1: Copper and acidic mushrooms are part of the ecosystem before you got their.
2: Scrap metal that came off the ship helped some creatures like stalkers who sharpen their teeth off it.
3: The water bottles are biodegradable, the batteries are in containers and the food are nutrients blocks that are contained by the same containers that batteries are in.
4: Aliens that have been monitoring the planet and that were killed off shot down the ship. Not us, them.
Also somehow leviathan creatures and all other sea life can survive the radiation anyways.

@@mimikyu4327 oh yeah i know its just fun to occasionally let my megachad energy flow a tiiiiny bit
I feel the need to point out some flaws in the expelled supply estimate. First of all, all of the supplies of the Aurora weren't expelled by the crash and explosion, as you can still find a lot in the areas of the ship that you can reach, with an unknown quantity within the inaccessible areas. Secondly, the Aurora wasn't the first ship to crash. The Degasi crashed almost a decade before that, and there aren't catastrophes stemming from that. Then there's also the fact that flora and fauna can be absurdly adaptable and resilient. You've got a pair of leviathans patrolling in close proximity to a lethal radioactive source seemingly unharmed, not to mention lizards that bathe in LAVA. Heck, you don't even need to look far to see strange adaptations. Tardigrades, for example, can survive radiation, extreme pressures both high and low, extreme temperatures, and even being exposed to outer space.
And as others have pointed out, the Aurora's captain stayed until the end, attempting an emergency landing, as well as the fact we don't know what the crash zone previously looked like, but is suggested to have prehaps been landmass (or at least very shallow).
It's also not completely Aurora's fault, the Architects didn't really plan things through when they just stuck a giant gun on the planet that shoots anything that comes close, because of "quarantine", as opposed to setting up a forcefield or something.
OMGG ua-cam.com/video/FSSFgWlDbJU/v-deo.html
A
I was about to say it was mostly because of the architects for putting a massive gun that shoots anything that gets close
its not that the architects didnt plan correctly, the gun was supposed to strand you on the planet as to prevent spreading of the bacteria to other planets. they thought dooming that planet was better then letting many planets get infected. but yeah a forcefield would be much better, but would also inspire hypotethical "space pirates" to break through it
@@Chromus505 then make laser with a range that doesn't extend past the forcedfield
A.those bottles are biodegradable
B. Alterra most likely cleaned the aurora to cover it up
9:28 actually copper is only dangerous if ingested at big amounts, those batteries shouldn't be a big deal
Considering how deep other theories dig, I'm kinda surprised how shallow this one was. From replicators removing the need for most packaging to the fact that the water bottles are made of organic materials to the relatively tiny amount of material the Aurora brought to the planet to the 'semi-controlled' landing the captain achieved to minimize impact damage. The crash would certainly have an impact on the ecology for sure but you could probably dump 100 Aurora's onto the planet and have less impact on 4546B than we've had on Earth and we're still around (though for how much longer is debatable).
I get you were making a tie-in episode but it was disappointing that it was done with such a surface-level theory on a great game.
True, true.
he needed da moni
at least its not his superhot theory
Right, if he wanted to shove in an ecology theory, he could have played that crappy Endless Ocean game and talked about almost the same stuff. That would make sense since that game actually takes place in the human world
He uses this game for nothing but a dpringboard to talk about what he wanted to talk about.
Earths ocean polution problem.
Which is something that needs to be talked about!
But there are much better games and themes to use as a springboard then subnautica.
Y’all say there are better games for him to do this theory with but let’s be real. You probably would not have watched this without subnautica’s name slapped on the title of the vid.

Yeah. The ship crashing was not our fault. It was the ancients who have doomed the planet because they made the gun. Maybe it was a good thing they died. Besides they all think we are interior anyway
Yeaaaaa, it's not our fault at all. Alterra, as we learn, is a shitty company that exploits any and everything for it's resources, but that's not relevant to the occasion. The Aurora just happens to be shot down while passing by a planet on a route not involving it and get shot done by a gun made by an alien race that has done only harm for the planet.

The reaper leviathans don’t live there they’re indigenous to literally everywhere else you find them the only reason the leviathans are anywhere near the Aurora is because they’re attracted to sound and I’m pretty sure a spaceship crashing into the ocean followed by a huge explosion is pretty loud
@@xiswarmin the Aurora landed on a island (maybe) and where do we know reapers hang out?
@@xiswarmin I don't know if that's at all correct. Ghost Leviathans live everywhere (as clearly shown if you're dumb enough to venture into the Abyss despite PDA's warning), Reaper Leviathans seem to inhabit specifically the crater (as they are shown in multiple deeper biomes, not just around Aurora), and they are noticeably smaller than the Ghost Leviathans, so they would likely become the food for Ghosts were they to occupy the same biome as them
@@NekoiNemo first of all I never chinned the ghost secondly I meant every other biome you find the reapers
Funny that he mentions Below zero in the end. As many others already said, the Degasi vessel already crash landed on the planet 10 years before the Aurora and didn't effect the planet much.
Well...
THE MERCURY II CRASH LANDED ON THE PLANET 20 BLOODY YEARS BEFORE THE DEGASI. And the planet is completely fine :)
"The radiation probably killed all the animals in the vicinity immediately"
Cave Crawlers, Reapers, Sandsharks:
Love you Matt, but I have some holes in your theory/ comments:
1. All of the plastics we find, and things like food and batteries, are store in titanium storage crates. So unless opened by the player on purpose, they shouldn't get out and contaminate the water
2. As the Aurora crashes, when you listen to the Black Box recording, you can hear him say that he's trying a "controlled decent." The obviously doesn't work completely, but it may account for the lack of damage we see to other areas of the map.
3. The entire playable area of Subnautica is called The Crater, since it was a volcano, and now is a caldera, ie how we have a Lava Lakes zone in the world. I think this would stop a lot of damage from spreading outside of the playable area, and especially stop much damage from occurring to the rest of the planet
I think the species most at risk is the Ghost Leviathan, the ones that live in the Void specifically. Since they generally eat microorganisms.
In the logs you find later in the game, you find that this is the only living area on the planet due to the peepers spreading the cure enzyme through alien water vents
@@happsk1211 which turns out to be false because sector 0 is still fine
plus, you quickly manage to stop the radiation spill of the ship and the packaging of the food is probably not made out of plastic giving that there are LITERAL MOLLECULE FABRICATORS, so cellulose would just be much more cheap
Great point
Just a quick edit: Matt, I'm sure no one means to bash your message (hopefully at least), but there were a few key details missing in your theory. that being said, I think another game that could also serve to help the message is Raft Survival as it's a little closer to home. Keep up the good work, your episodes are always really gripping to watch!
Lore-wise it would actually be incorrect to say that it's the human's fault for causing the pollution in the first place. *SPOILER WARNING, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED OF THE SPOILER*
The crash was caused by the architect's global defense system. So while yes the human's brought the trash and other pollutants to 4546b, it was by no means their fault, per say. That being said, you forgot to mention the other ship that gets shot down, if you don't disable the global defense system in time, and all the pollutants that get brought along with it.
The sad part is this isn't even that huge of a spolier it happens super early and matt should have know this.
(a couple of things)
In the game, in order to actually leave the planet, you need to repair the drive core, which means no more radiation.
Even if the bottles are plastic, they're stuck at the bottom of the ocean by the containers, as none are floating around, and only a human can open the containers.
There is no life around the Aroura's crash site to feed on the plastic, as rabbit tails are veggie-eaters, and the reaper is so large that it would likely ignore the tiny bottles.
A reaper is by the tail end of the crash site, meaning that it is highly likely that the Aurora is completely fine to be around, even with all the negative effects.
There are many underground areas that would not feel the affects of sediment displacement, radiation, or pollution.
If the destruction from the Aurora is so bad, then why isn't all life extinct from the Degasi, seeing as it had ample time to kill anything around it, but didn't and is flourishing with sealife.
If the destruction from the Aurora is so bad, then why is there life hanging around the remains of Sunbeam, seeing as it got the BFG treatment?
Even if all life on the crater is killed, life on 4546b will go on, by simple notion that the entire game takes place on what's basically a flooded continent surrounded by 'the void', allowing for life at the equator, void life, and whatever other areas there could be like the crater to continue on outside this chernobyl-like area of inhospitability.
(I'll see if I can add more in edits, but this is what I got rn, so enjoy)
@@TheEmeraldPixel The sad truth of the game is, you don't actually need to fix the drive core. The only thing that is mandatory from the Aurora is the Neptune Rocket. Fixing the drive core merely makes the game more convenient, and is actually not needed to win the game.
Speaking of which, perhaps the reason that the radiation doesn't go that far is because the materials they use for power is MUCH shorter than the thing that MatPat mentioned?
Rip sunbeam
@@TheEmeraldPixel You know, I totally forgot about the Degasi crash. And speaking of other crashes, you could even bring up the other crashed ships from Below Zero. If I remember correctly, they've been there even longer than the Degasi ship has and landed in similar locations as the Aurora and life is still flourishing around it. This one isn't even a spoiler either because the devs posted about it when they added it.
The estimate about food waste may not be entirely accurate. In the military, there are these things called MREs, or Meals Ready to Eat. One MRE is able to provide for 1 adult soldier for an entire day of training, and provides very little waste in the way of plastic. Not only this, but I doubt that the Aurora would have no method of recycling for their waste. It is more likely that they were able to use their fabricators to create meals, and also reuse the waste as fuel, or other possible uses.
MatPat: goes into creative mode and looks in the fabricator menu and leaves the lifepod
MatPat: That's enough this character is a horrible person
Now I don’t know a lot about the science behind this but I have played Subnautica. Now first off the bottles are metal not plastic. And our character didn’t solve the Kharaa virus the aliens actually did they couldn’t communicate with the sea emperor the one able to give the recipe for the hatching enzymes in order to hatch the sea emperors eggs. The emperor also mentions that the architects hurt it in some way and after not being able to communicate actually stopped trying because it held a grudge on them and refused to help them. The architects set up the peeper system to heal the wildlife to keep the planet alive. The Aurora wasn’t the first ship to crash land on the planet. And they didn’t crash on purpose because the architect laser made them due to the quarantine on the planet. And the area that you play in is actually a volcano and is a crater. It is clear that is isolated from the other parts of the planet and their ecosystems. And even though companies don’t have a good track record with caring for the environment the company that made the Aurora is designed for space travel and exploration you don’t hear any lore about other planets they have visited but I am sure with all that they have made they have learned how to affect the planet in the most little way possible even if their ships land and leak radiation everywhere. This is a Sci-fi game don’t critique it on the tech we have today. If you want to hear a good critic on this game and the flaws that it has I would recommend to watch Joseph Anderson’s critique on it. Because he at least went a little deeper into the lore of the game before giving it a critique like this.
little right little wrong, the Emperor actually specifies she couldn't communicate with the Architects (likely due to their bodies not being organic like ours and thus their consciousnesses not being within her reach telepathically) and they were unable to force the incubation, They never hurt the Emperor but also didn't actively help the situation either. The peeper system also was NOT done by the Architects, the system the peepers use is for water cycling like for air and the like the peepers which are within game lore rather smart actually, just realized they could also use the system and the emperor used them to spread what little help it could.
You be thor and ill be odin
You rodent am omnipotent
@@biosaber585 Your right in the sea emperor didn’t get hurt and I knew that she couldn’t communicate with them maybe I forgot to mention that. But I know do remember where I got that they hurt the sea emperor they took one of the eggs and forcibly hatched it. I am pretty sure you can find the body in the last base. I have always seen this as why she doesn’t give the recipe for the hatching enzymes. Because she states after opening the teleported that she gives you the secret that the others couldn’t force from her. This to me makes it sound that she couldn’t communicate with them but could at least somehow give them the enzymes idk just my theory on the situation. And I had no clue about the vent thing so thank you.
@@nightinvestigations5273 no problem. You're correct they did forcibly hatch an egg however I never took her to be malicious over this act, maybe its just how we all interpret things.
@@biosaber585 I definitely think it’s up to interpretation because the game is kinda unclear with it. And both outcomes are totally viable in the story.
The batteries/power cells and water bottles we find around the Aurora were actually kept safe in boxes, so nothing could've leaked out.
Exactly
@@jebblottin92
Nah they aren’t just made like that everywhere in the games universe. It’s the elements within the mushrooms that the fabricator utilizes. I mean the best example I can think of is the enameled glass, it uses stalker teeth. Stalkers don’t exist on earth, well not these kinds of stalkers. But the fabricator breaks down the raw materials, and utilizes those for the production of new materials.
What are the boxes made out of then?
@the golden doomslayer True, Technically the reapers near the aurora didn't seem to suffer much damage from either the radiation or the explosion itself, as well as the fact that the radiation that spreads from the reactor explosion doesn't seem to affect fauna in the nearby biomes either, so it seems likely that the fauna generally is immune to radiation.
And the water bottles have no confirmed material
You forgot the numerous other shot down ships, the Degasi being a ship that you showed crashing but never spoke about, that leaves 2 large crashed ships, I doubt the Degasi ship was as big as the Aurora but it's still very large. There's also the sunbeam that gets shot down in game, it's very small compared to the Degasi and Aurora as it's more of a rescue ship, but the point of there being a MINIMUM of 3 different named space crafts that were shot out of space only to crash land on 4546B
14:46 reapers, sand sharks and stalkers: I'll ignore that
The problem with this theory is you assume this civilization has made no advancements in manufacturing technology, also the whole map in subnautica is on top of a island in the middle of a massive super deep ocean. The most that would be hurt beyond the island is a few ghost leviathans.

The entire planet isn't ONE crater (That's where you play, inside a crater, not an island) and then just an infinitely deep ocean full of NOTHING but ghost leviathans. That's what's IMMEDIATELY around the crater.
Beyond that is other ecosystems and lots of life.
And they have made advancements in manufacturing, obviously. They can now make plastic bottles in the field as well. So..... yeah, don't pretend Alterra CARES about the environment.
And the theory doesn't even account for most of the planet being water - greatly diluting the radiation.
@@Groovemonkey-pd4ht Heck, he doesn't even account for the nature of the radiation leak. All the evidence points to a leak of ACTUAL RADIATION, not radioactive materials. That's worlds different and he should know better. He even glossed over the key evidence as if it were nothing (You seal up the reactor and the radiation disappears).
So, I enjoy subnautica and I'll correct a couple of points. The map is actually in the middle of an inactive volcano that forms a bowl. The reason there's such a massive dead zone around the map has more to do with the death of certain leviathans well before the player's and not because of the crash or radiation. Also, they hint that where the Aurora crashes was actually originally above water and gets leveled as a result of the crash, so the damage to ocean life is lessened. Also, as far as radiation is concerned, water is a good shield. That's not to say there will be no impact, but probably not that much and once it's gone, it's gone, unlike oil. And as far as the plastics are concerned, that's not great, but it's the least of that ocean's problems.
Diseases can cause ecological destruction
@@johnathanegbert9277 its okay we cured them ;D
@@butters6795 b-but...
I never played Subnautica
All good, minus the part about radiation going away easier than oil.
Look up how absurdly long it takes for typical radiation leaks to fade away, how far their effects can pass from one generation to the next, and the severity of those genetic defects.
The planet would likely survive, but the damage would be far, FAR greater than how its depicted in-game.
And didn’t the radiation leak get fixed?
The game isn't about saving the planet, it''s about surviving. You just need to save the planet to survive... The ship also didn't just crash, it got shot down. If someone is responsible for the destruction of the planet here it's the aliens who built the cannon. And they made the right choice, as the bacterium could have messed up the whole galaxy.
Matt, you make sense to the impact of the Aurora's crash but....before the Aurora crashed into Planet 4546B, The Captain of the Aurora said this "I'm attempting a controlled Decent." The Aurora may been rapidly approaching the planet, but at the same moment the Captain must have pulled up at the last second to cause minimum damage on the surface. It's similar to how standard Airline Pilots do a Crash landing, Causing Minimum Damage around the surrounding area while keeping most of the craft intact. If anyone wishes to add or disagree with my comment on this, I'll be happy to see other friendly theories explain their logic.
I wish he would've done more research into the game itself, and he would've known that the large majority of many synthesized furniture and base parts are made out of almost entirely titanium, as well as the broken ship parts which, when broken down, are made into titanium chunks. Also most man made food in the game is only nutrient blocks and water, which are contained in most likely titanium cases. Additionally, the area outside the crater is seemingly only home to leviathans and microorganisms, which will not help the spread of the disease.
What’s titaniums Half life cycle? Because naturally it’s on the planet and I don’t see it degrading but for actual science what is titanium‘s half-life cycle
@@Flyric-qx5lg titanium is 60 years. But the titanium is the game is likely processed to last much longer than that.
Sometimes I don't think he plays the game he makes theory on
He also missed that we didn't find a cure we just finished the last probably %1 and the Precursor did most of the work
@@s665677 he cant play every game, just research for what he needs to create the theory, esp with games like this, its lots of gameplay to chugg through plus the science and math he and the team have to do.
@@s665677 The precursors didn't find anything. The Emperor Leviathan was the source of the cure.
