6 Most Terrifying Enemies in No Man's Sky | Abyssal Horrors and More!

I recently landed on a planet and jumped out of my ship in the middle of a herd of predators and had to run for my life. It was glorious.

The scariest thing I've seen on NMS was the Titans worms, but the planet was monochrome which made the experience so much worse.

I see the larva all the time, but I was genuinely terrified on my first encounter, I tend to fly on first person so imagine my surprise when I get pulled out of hyper and see this gigantic eye of Sauron staring right into my soul, taking up most of the screen

I recently encountered my first Abyssal Horror while underwater, and was not expecting it and was quite shocked to to see an eye open and start watching me.

The worse one for me is the predator that you don't see, when exploring a cave and the beastie is on the surface but still seems to be able to reach through solid rock and do damage or kill you.

Luckily the creature that spawn from horrifying nests can be taken out very easily with the neutron cannon and you can also make sure that you don’t end up facing a whole swarm of them by bursting the nests yourself one at a time and dealing with the smaller swarms Edit: it’s extremely bizarre that the sentinels consider killing an invasive species a crime

The worst predator I’ve faced so far was a sentient ball that looked like the meaty chunk texture blown up to be massive. Their charge attack bartered me as a young traveler and my only way to explore the planet was but seeing them first and starting to lower their health before they started rolling. Still killed me multiple times

The scorpion-like vines in the ceilings of abandoned buildings have jump-scared me more than I'd like to admit. Not a ton of damage, but the fact that they hiss and I forget they are there ALL THE TIME gets me.

Man a few months ago I asked if you'd do a spooky video, and you replied "Halloween is just around the corner" and now look what you've blessed us with! It absolutely hit the spot! An absolute man of your word, and I respect that!

The Asteroid Larvae... man, it's gonna be pretty dope to do Raid Bosses with it's hatched form.

Reminds me of this one time I landed on a webbed planet and shot one of those ball creatures (it was very far away). That thing launched towards me at mach 10. It was actually insane.

My biggest jumpscare was yesterday when one of those enormous worms you can see to the right at 7:43 decided to come up through the ground just where I stood. Didn't take damage but jeez it scared me

I still remember the first time I not only encountered an abyssal horror, but it was an angler fish. I was out exploring on the beach when I saw Alluring Specimen pop up on my visor, and so I went to go check it out. I had to dig inside a tunnel to find the giant plant thing and took one of the Hadal cores and all seemed well, so I dropped my guard and took another one only to be met by a knockback, missing half my health and that God awful screech. I panicked because I couldn't find the exit, my oxygen was running low and I couldn't see what attacked me, only a green light (which was probably because it was stuck in a wall). I pulled myself together and found the exit, swam to shore and walked away from the game for a solid 3 minutes after that. I get PTSD everytime I hear one of those things.

I agree, people who don't use turn signals are terrifying

While disturbing the worm lairs. bad storms worms attacking, burrowing companions and sentinels is such a challenge… but it’s worth it for those nanites hahaha

I remember my first encounter with the angler fish, the single scariest moment I’ve had while playing nms! Now that I know where they can come from, I’m going to tell my friends to go to the pretty lights in the sea lol

The only jump scare I got was my first time encountering the big fish. I didn't know about it when I first encoutered it either, but I was pretty strong and took it out pretty quick.

What about the sentinels? The sentinel walker can be absolutely panic-inducing at first!

"what are the most terrifying enemies in NMS?" Yes

I remember being a newbie setting up an active indium farm in this reddish trippy planet, the whole place was red, with swaying huge plants and some dinosaur like predator, but the scariest ones were this small leech fast af creature that could ambush you, I was like "nope, nope, nope" and dodged our of there lol. NMS can really catch you off guard hah.
