You ever think about the fact that there's only one red crystal, even though there are blue and yellow ones also scattered about, and since Omega notices you _immediately_ if you use it, it's safe to assume _it put it there?_
I did a bit of EXP grindig by hitting the red crystal and fighting the Dead Lander γ. Eventually I could hit the crystal before the eye even came back, and then the eye would just stay focused on the crystal and I didn't have to worry about it for a while
I knew that it would draw the attention of the eye, so I quickly dipped from it as soon as I got the chance. The stone doing the same thing earlier was the reason for that.
I spent most of the game fighting every enemy unless it was in an optional area and I feared over levelling. This place was the exception. I fought each dead lander type for a spy once and was overly cautious just so I didn't have the creepy mutated spider of death dropped by bony hands on me
Eh, who cares if Venus can't heal me anymore, this area should be fine- is that a giant eye- OH GOD THIS MUSIC OH GOD A HAND OH GOD A SPIDER OH GOD 35HP
First walking in: Ooooh so it's like a person's house we're going into Moments later: Bruh, whose creepy eye is that???? This creepy bony armed monster is NOT A HUMAN, and it's dropping ABOMINATION BUGS ON ME! I am SCARED and I want to LEAVE!!!
My personal interpretation is that the dead lander omega is some kind of human charred and mutated by a nuclear bomb. The final lore book implies that bug fables takes place in a post apocalypse.
I'ma be honest, I got tired of trying to win a legit way. So, I decided to try and do something stupid. You can use team moves with the berserk medal, and the damage bonus gets added to the attack. Pair that with frozen drill and well... You put the dead in Dead Landers.
To be honest, I had no problems with it because kabbu with all the do nothing medals and an extra 2 defense on top of that was just too tanky for them to pose much threat while maki and chompy anhialated them
They could have made this thing something like Tubba Blubba or Doopliss, where you have to fight a hopeless battle once you get caught by it. Or it could have been something like the Ultimate Chimera, where getting spotted and subsequently caught means straight to the proverbial guillotine for you, no questions asked. But no. They made it so that you never fight nor actually see the whole thing; it just drops Gammas on you that hound you relentlessly. And that, in my opinion, makes it even _more_ terrifying; it either does this because it's so goddamn strong that hucking other horrific abominations at you is a mere afterthought, or for shits and giggles like the Beast. The music isn't terrifying because of what it belongs to, but rather because of its uncanny familiarity. It sounds like Kirby music (which is known for having several incomprehensible cosmic horrors in it,) but like...viscerally _evil._ Something twisted into a violent form that's only barely recognizable, and is all the more scary for it. Instead of showcasing the sheer destructive power the enemy has, like most Kirby final boss themes, this theme says that Omega's set its sights on you, and you need to run, _now._ H I D E - Bug Fables
I thought I was being clever by hopping into a bottomless pit before this guy could drop an enemy on top of me. I thought I'd just respawn at the nearest ledge. It was too smart to be fooled by that!
@@omgman5745 I was thinking mostly of Drillers. Their attacks at least hit harder and they sported higher HP. True, though, that the Deadlanders would've overcome them eventually...
I once got one trapped on a tiny platform. The eye didn't reset because it was under the impression I was still being pursued and the Gamma just stood on the lone platform like "What do you want me to do?". Unfortunately, the eye DID reset when I reached the next trigger for it to move, but it made things a tiny bit easier.
Me: OK this place is creepy, but I'm sure there's not really that much of a punishment for getting seen. *gets seen, hand drops an unavoidable abomination with more health than some minibosses* Me: Never be seen again, got it.
I just realized that this song has a part of Cruel Beast, Devourer of Journeys in it (ie The Beast's theme) I'd say these things are even more likely to over your game than the sadistic Scolipede
I had seen fan-art of the Gamma a few days before I actually got to this area, but I hadn't gotten a good enough look to really ingrain in my mind what it looked like from that. I probably should've been more cautious the first time around given that I was faced starting out with an open area and literally no hostiles I could see, cause I walked straight into the first eye's sight and immediately regretted it, I Vi-lined straight back out. That shift of tone, man...
@@chaosinc.3823 years later and this track came back to mind as I'm closing in on the end of my 2nd playthrough (playing with RUIGEE right now) That whole series of events isn't gonna happen again, but I'm still thinking about _that one forced encounter_ in the back of my head as the Prison looms on the horizon, and how brutal that fight was the first time even with Maki and Elizant backing me up Gammas [and Omega] have this track for a good reason: they're a super-mini-boss in themselves
later game mobs , dead bugs me: okey it's ok spot the giant eye me: that is kinda cool get in his watch, and drops a bulky 35 hp dead bug me: THAT IS NOT OKEY
When I first reached the Giants Lair I got to the giant pit room, and I used Vi's fly, nearly ran out far from land, the eye saw me and dropped the DL, I ran, my flight reset and I cheesed the room
The first time that i saw that spider thing coming down not only i was panicking but also my brain soft locked for a sec. Then after that i was just thinking that how this part is so similar to the tubba blubba castle guards
The last lore book explains that in roach lore, the day of awakening was known as the day of reckoning, which summoned the giants to another world amongst fire that rained from the sky. I can only imagine that these are generations of mutated bugs. I have no idea about the watcher though.
@@DvainsWeassel I interpreted it as the archaeologist not knowing exactly what happened, but now that you mention it, they mention that there have never been findings of what became of the giants. Maybe you're right.
Whats more scary is that this song is extremely similar to Wreckless for Glory straight to the tempo and instruments used. Except here there's an even bigger emphasis on dread and terror.

I would say that the eye is an interpretation of a human to a bug, which would be massive, incomprehensible, and ferocious... But the more we see of it, the less likely that becomes. The dropping of the Dead Landers, the crystals, and Team Snakemouth's commentary (which's OOC delivery still gives me chills), and the Roach technology within Giant's Lair makes me think otherwise. If the Giant really is a human, it would imply that the Dead Landers being dropped are just again, bug interpretations of what are likely human devices. Though, it is very unlikely, considering the other human things we see around Bugaria.
@@chaosinc.382 I was partially wrong about that because the wiki only had the menu tattles at the time. "One of the incomprehensible beasts that lay beyond Bugaria's safe haven. It is too risky to engage, even with a full exploration team. Flee on sight. More information would be too risky to gather."
I always thought it was a cat. I mean, it certainly looks like a cat's eye, and cats love to terrorize things that are smaller than them. The only lingering question is, why would the cat still be around even after the humans are gone...
I was under the impression that it was a bird. It looks like it has talons, and only one eye scans at a time, sorta like how a bird has to turn its head to get a good look at things.
I bet it's a human, just grossly mutated and undead due to whatever apocalyptic event happened before the bug awakening. But we can't be sure unless they explore it in a sequel, but that's what makes the giant shadowy monster scarier: ya don't know
my theory is those things are what killed the humans that survived whatever happened during the day of awakening. i mean, think about a few of those and hundreds of dead landers coming to rip you apart, nobody is gonna survive that. they're honestly terrifying, especially when even the protagonists explicitly say they would rather not dwell on the subject and would prefer to ignore them.
I was listening to "The Ones Who..." because I was in a nice mood, but UA-cam decided to jumpscare me by playing this song right after. I turned autoplay off, I checked both before and after it happened, and besides... this song wasn't even the next to play! I gotta say, that very much replicated what it was like to be caught by Deadlander Omega when playing the game.
Dead Lander γ was from the enemies the most who scared the shit out of me when I encounter it. I have literally no clue what it is. I first thought it should be a Creature who has a black head with a red eye. When I realize this is actually a black giant Eyeball with a red pupil I was more terrified when before.
When I first walked into the line of sight of the eye and then I had to fight the dead lander I was actually scared, how did you manage to make music that struck genuine fear and panic
I like to imagine the Dead Landers as the incarnation of pesticides ... Ok on second thought that just makes them even more terrifying They're the amalgamations of undead bugs dead from being sprayed with pesticides

my theory is those things are what killed the humans that survived whatever happened during the day of awakening. i mean, think about a few of those and hundreds of dead landers coming to rip you apart, nobody is gonna survive that. they're honestly terrifying, especially when even the protagonists explicitly say they would rather not dwell on the subject and would prefer to ignore them.
POV: oh god oh fyck
I was listening to "The Ones Who..." because I was in a nice mood, but UA-cam decided to jumpscare me by playing this song right after. I turned autoplay off, I checked both before and after it happened, and besides... this song wasn't even the next to play! I gotta say, that very much replicated what it was like to be caught by Deadlander Omega when playing the game.
Dead Lander γ was from the enemies the most who scared the shit out of me when I encounter it. I have literally no clue what it is. I first thought it should be a Creature who has a black head with a red eye. When I realize this is actually a black giant Eyeball with a red pupil I was more terrified when before.
fear
block tales fear+!!×+
Certified pine tree
When I first walked into the line of sight of the eye and then I had to fight the dead lander I was actually scared, how did you manage to make music that struck genuine fear and panic
I like to imagine the Dead Landers as the incarnation of pesticides
...
Ok on second thought that just makes them even more terrifying
They're the amalgamations of undead bugs dead from being sprayed with pesticides
I personally think they're pure fungi.
I like to think that the Giants had a garden, and the Dead Landers are mutated plants from there.
@@thediabolicalraisin8953 @TangleSlime2 Since all plants and fungi are weak to ice, you both may be correct, due to all dead landers (besides the giant one) being weak to ice.
@@TangleSlime2 See other comment I did because it didn't notify you I think
I feel like I saw some monsters that live in Cthulhu Mythos
same here, and I expect that there are many more Dead Landers
*SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT*
That's basically the song in a nutshell.
"No more healing after this point? It can't be that ba- *_ayo is that a ganon eye_*
Since the very first lore book I excepted this to be set in a post-nuclear war world and the entirety of chapter 7 just confirmed it to me.
*flying with Vi*
Oh okay the eye spotted me what's gonna hap- WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT DEVIL ARM DROPPING ON TOP OF ME?!?
Ok let's see this place- is that a giant eye? Let's see what happens if sees me HOLY SHIT WHAT IS THAT KILL IT KILL IT
Me throughout the majority of the game: Come at me world! I can take on anything you throw at me!
Me after λ drops in: fear fear feAR FEAE FEAE FEAR FEARFEARFEARFEAFEAFEFEFEFFFFFF!!!!!!!
This one definitely reminds me of OOT’s Ganondorf fight...
This sound like a fusion of infinite stairs and cave of the past.....
The fact that Your Best Nightmare and this share the same OST number...
What the fresh frick did I just see ?
It's also good music to eat spoiled vegetables to.
"CASH ME OUTTA THIS MESS!!" -Me when I got got
Fear is that you?
"YOU ARE NOT WELCOME"
I still wonder to this day why that one dude wanted to grow crops here. I mean you have 2 options: 1. Risk your life for some B E R R I E S or 2. Stay alive
i mean you can't exactly stay alive when you've got no food now can you
Me every time I got caught NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE
Sheer terror
