The fact that the liminal pools are a french territory is objectively the scariest part of this entire dimension

I like how once they saw the locker room, they assumed they were places to hide, which made it even more scary for them

19:14 thank you for actually understanding that entities make liminal spaces suck

i like how from their perspective, specially the end where they talk about getting rid of rat permantly, they think rat is this evil mastermind but when you look at rats perspective its like "haha trap people with giant fish bc of petty"

Rat is probably the only person I've ever seen who will solve problems with an entire dimension of thalassophobic horror

The fact that, buried far beneath all of this so out of sight that you need to look at the code to see it, there's a pixelated PNG of a cucumber is very amusing.

Wait… Aren’t Lux and Nox… roommates? Housemates? Ain’t this gonna be a bit awkward -when- if nox gets back? “Hey dude welcome back uhhh sorry for trapping you in the watery backrooms”

heya! one of the OG backrooms writers here. this is unironically some of the best liminal space content i've seen since this whole thing started. the choice to only add the one hostile mob at the end was truly excellent; you got right what so many people get so wrong. absolutely amazing stuff, i'm truly blown away!

41:38 Hearing Noxintrus yell for help only to have his voice cut off by the jaws of a Leviathan Grandgousier was some actual horror movie stuff. This mod was SSS tier. Amazing work!

rat's content is elite 🔥🔥

the painting at 27:26 of the father eating his son was a nice touch because its accurately funny

I love it; "We played fair *MAKING* the mod. We don't have to play fair *PLAYING* it." Oh how I love that line...

"Warning, entering ecological dead zone. Adding report to data bank" -HELLISH SCREAMS-

I like to imagine that the poolfish are larval forms of the grandgousier, which implies that either they reproduce in the first stage of their life, or, more unsettlingly, *they can somehow climb between levels*

This is by far the best depiction of horror in minecraft mods. it preys on the same fears cave noises generate. while modelling off of a genuinely terrifying real life thing

lmao at 21:34 rat just has "no please genuinely someone get me out of france" with a meme photo at the bottom

The transition from liminal horror to thalassophobia is just genius. Jumping from level 2 to level 3, you expect to enter a really dark liminal pool space, but instead you are surprised with deep sea terror. You thought you knew sort of what to expect, *but* *you* *didn't.* EDIT: Mom, I'm famous

You should add a "Minor Gouser" to the overworld and its just a normal anglerfish.

Thanks to you, I've decided to start my OWN liminal dimension. Rather than pools however, I decided to take the OUTSIDE approach. An infinite hedge maze. With multiple layers that vary differently, from a sunny hedge maze, to a summer park, to a creepy and haunted forest that gives you the feeling that you are constantly being watched! Thanks for the inspiration, doctor4t!

As someone who hates the ocean, level 3 is nightmare fuel born from satan's desire to cause suffering upon any fool who happens upon this mod. Very well done, 10/10 would force my friends to play.

Im pretty sure Rats answer to every problem is: "make a mod to fix it"

As someone with thousands of hours in subnautica I can say, the adult grandgousier triggered my adult ghost leviathan ptsd.

That sneaky use of the Echoes of the Eye soundtrack at 39:50 betrays just how influential Outer Wilds' Dark Bramble was in the design of this mod

21:02 there's always a bigger fish

I love how right after mentioning the pools are French territory, Rat starts talking about how to escape

the fact rat's team is just so calm but the other team is in nearly full disorder makes it 10 times funnier to watch

oh I LOVE that lvl 3 abyss. I'm a sucker for that sort of environment with the distant lights glinting through the darkness, and the shader just ties it all together

"I wanna try out this mod" rat: this place is french territory "nvm"

I love how Winsweep is making a whole campaign to hunt down rat, but then rat is like "you fool! You activated my trap card" and traps him in backrooms dimension

The pov of Winsweep when the Adult ate his friend was amazing! A quick panicking scream coming from the depths, unsure of what's happening down there, and then all of a sudden, the tips of enormous jaws snap from the abyss. And silence. Absolutely phenomenal.

11:53 That was probably the best What The Heeeeeel I've ever heard lol

As someone with Thalasophobia... Man am I glad this is a block game, but still... Experiencing this first hand would definitely be something I'd prefer to avoid regardless.

41:32 that is just masterpiece of cinema! One of the group goes down out of curiosity, there's absolute darkness, then an ominous warning in a form of a growl. Out of the darkness teeth seemingly phase in decorating edges of an enormous, open maw. We hear panick and the last thing we see from perspective of the people that stayed on the walkway is massive jaws closing on their friend and just disappearing. YOU'D PUT A SCENE LIKE THAT IN A MOVIE.

Every time RAT uploads, my expectations are exceeded threefold. Started from a scythe, now he makes his own dimensions? Respect

11:40 to 12:10 never fails to make me laugh, Rat's sheer confusion and disbelief at what's going is just sends me everytime. Especially his flabbergasted " WHAT THE HEEEEELL?!" at the interdimensional glitch. I rewatch this video sometimes just for that.

this video is the reason i learnt how to make minecraft mods and why i spent about a month making my own version of this for my friends! keep up the great work absolute legend!

I love how the way you tested this mod for bugs was to randomly trap Talon in the backrooms forever

I actually love the contrast between the povs of people who know what to do and are essentially speedrunning vs the people who are trying to figure it out lol

I gotta say, this might be the best horror mod out there for Minecraft, I've seen a lot of people try, but you made the best one so far

When they were all in the Final Level ( I'd like to name it Abyssal Madness / Fisherman's Nightmares / Forbidden Waters ), it was absolutely chaos man, and that part where Nox made the mistake of awaking that beast, and that Win had to witness that, was pure comedy gold.

I love the way you exit the dimension, its literally like you just wake up from a real bad dream.

I love how talon is offered help to get out but he's just like "naw bro I kinda like it here" and then just follows blake and nox despite the fact that he's been helping rat and they just don't question it.

27:03 in my opinion you should have left this in cause the idea of some fish breaking the sound barrier to mate is hilarious

I am taking a python coding course at my high school and i just realized that the ticker block is just a redstone for loop with a cooldown that you can set. Seeing as for loops are so powerful in coding im sure in redstone the ticker would be cool as well.

“Wow what a nice dimension, I can’t wait to bring my cute Poolfish back home with me!” The horrors of level 3: Allow us to introduce ourselves

The leviathan is such a creative way to stop players from going to the bottom

41:25 this is easily my favorite part🤣 the fact that nox heard the monster then slowly backed away while you can see the teeth come into the light is so perfectly captured💀🙏

41:32 This scene alone is better than most horror movies

I absolutely LOVE the Leviathan Grandgousiers. They're just cool because of the fact that even if you do find the safe chunk, one wrong drop and you're back to square one. No escape.

The leviathan grandgouiser is actually terrifying. The juvenile ones are scary enough as is, but to just swim down not knowing whats there and suddenly being swallowed whole not able to escape as you're too slow, that's seriously horrifying

15:36 i must go, my people need me!

18:12 That laugh tells me they might come alive at some point xD

I like how talon was giving a chance to escape but had chosen to stay continuing the life hes built with his new son in the liminal pools

41:38 the silent *muach* 41:40 the roar *muach* 41:47 seeing a glimpse of the monster jaw eating Nox with the audio cut off is a massive reminder on how terrifying this map is*Muach* Fking perfect

I absolutely loved the design of everything here, especially the Grandgousiers with their animations and behaviour.

amazing innovation, i havent seen stuff in Minecraft that has genuinely blown me away this much in years

As someone with thalassophobia, I must congratulate you. Watching the first showcase of level 3, not fullscreen, on my second monitor, shot up my anxiety 10000%. It's remarkably effective. Great job!

This was the best thing you've coded. It's like a horror puzzle map. Noxintrus being eaten by the Leviathan Grandgousier and Winsweep's reaction to that was amazing

31:27 "i understand" when talon said 'no' to being let free of this hell hole just shows his commitment to his sons, rip poolies1 and 2

31:32 I like how talon said 'No.'

If Rat ever decides to make this dimension mod public you already KNOW I'm going to play it for a looong time.

Their attempts to escape on level three had perfect horror framing lol. Nox swimming up just enough for everyone to see the gargantuan leviathan chomp him. Running away and then them turning around and seeing only the skull of their friend. Fantastic stuff!

21:29 is by far the most horrifying part of the whole thing..

He has the chance to make the angler fish thing attracted to the lights you get from the plants

Honestly I think he should’ve added an achievement for the dimension (specifically two): One for when you fall into the dimension called “Trapped” and one for when you get out of the dimension called “Welcome Back”

The unused, low resolution cucumber PNG is the true hero of this story.

I love how you avoided the question, and the editing made it even funnier XD

Through this whole thing the "clowns room" will always fucking get me during 4:50 I just cant stop thinking about the basically mass murderer/hierd assassin got his own little room in the OTHER mass merderers/terrorists house and kinda home base. Idk y its so funny but its like yea this is where is stays yes he lives here 😊

This is a good example between a fully prepared scp team mapping out the unknown and some poor souls that got lost.

I just love the use of the name Grandgousier for the anglerfish monster. It's very fitting that the "giant monster" is named after the father of a giant in french litterature. The entire dimension is also incredible regardless of the name of the deep sea monster and I'm honestly more and more impressed by rat's mod making skills each time I watch a new video.

subscribed because of this, i love the poolrooms (and hate when backrooms has entities) and actual good minecraft horror, which both are hard to come by

Just imagine how scarier that would be if diving suit used oxygen for swimming upwards. There would be moments when you slowly sink into the depths realizing there is not enough oxygen to get back to the platform you have accidentally fallen from.

39:50 the sound design for when winsweep gets knocked into the abyss is PHENOMENAL that deep synth when the endless expanse is revealed makes the scene like 10x more dramatic && scary! 10/10

I just noticed that this dimension fits perfectly with the anchor in the last episode

Brotha this is dope. The skill, the drive, the memes, the pettiness and ohhhh the grandgousiers are dope. You have earned your sub a thousand times over

this was my first time seeing your videos and i subed and liked im here hoping to see an update on the guys that are stuck...so epic

41:38 is actually so cinematic, feels like an actual movie, beautiful work by Rat again

Just wanted to mention that the use of the Forbidden Archive music from the outer wilds DLC at 39:49 was clean asf holy hell.

This is genuinely so cool, I adore the execution and visuals

this is so awesome! I would love to see a space/horror ->alien like mod

winsweep going "BREATHE, BREATHE, BREATHE" after noxintrus got devoured was a like a scene straight out of a horror movie

Every little tiny aspect on the third level is immaculate, and almost cinematic in a way. The Leviathan Grandgousiers remind me of the Ghost leviathans in Subnautica. Made to keep players inbound, but still significant in a way. The juvenile Grandgousiers are also pretty terrifying. Sad that we can't see more of Winsweep and friend's point of view and how we barely got to see more of the Grandgousier bite the Poolfishes...

By far my favorite youtuber right now!! Videos are amazing, brings me back to the early days

We need more to this mysterious dimension!! I would love to see you add Lvl 0, 1 2 3 4 etc!

I feel like it would have been a nice little touch that the suit DIDNT let you breathe underwater, but instead just made it take a WHILE to drown so for example youd be going around level 3 for like 40 minutes looking around, seeking for a way out etc. *And then you see one of your airbubbles pop* you just then realize your time is limited, and you can have the air bubbles pop at inconsistent rates, so the first would pop around 40 minutes in, the next would pop 20 the next would take another 30, the next an hour and so on

Luxintrus: Why are you avoiding my questions? doctor4t: *HALL OF BONES!*

That adult fish reveal was nothing short of perfect

44:14 sound barrier is scared lol

Unpopular opinion: the grandgousier was scarier before sounds. Just it slowly drafting in the dark water, and if it makes a sound you know one's nearby, while if it didn't then you'd _always_ be looking over your shoulder. Maybe a nasty crunching sound for when it eats you, but prolly not idle ones

"Do you think the lights attract them?" doctor4t: "I should have thought of that."

41:44 the way the angler fish thing rises up is spot on

I think the best part of the entire dimension is that you might grow attached to your cute pet poolfish, only to have to sacrifice it to escape

41:39 That POV of the Grandgousier right beneath Nox with it’s mouth open was terrifying

Love the idea of End Portals taking you different places. Like it's a combo lock, can take different items, be extended in some way to modify the portal, etc. Makes me wonder if the dungeons were ever going to have different domains, because the dragon itself didn't have outer islands at first, and it was still in it's ambitious dark oldschool rpg phase.

I seriously think this is your best video ever! I just can't stop rewatching it :)

i love this episode because the last level kinda looks like sculk and it's so pretty when u have no Grandgousier in the final level but so far great job rat and keep up the good work and always stay positive because I've been dealing with a family issue with my mum having cancer and seeing this amazing content is amazing and will inspire me to become an artist and i hope someday i will work with u to create a mod for Minecraft

what I find amazing about this experience is how you threw them into that whole new dimension without warning. No wikis, no guides, no roadmap, just... jump into the portal and good luck.

As soon as the anglerfish were revealed we had outer wilds vibes, and the fact that you played The Forbidden Archives as they sunk into the depths was just _perfect_

Oooooh everything's perfect. The aesthetic's perfect, the lighting's perfect (OMG that's so cool) and it's challenging but FAIR. What an introduction to your channel.
