If one looks at its ugly mug, you'll notice it actually has a somewhat human-like face, or something far closer to one compared to all the other leviathans. I think it's because the Reaper falls somewhat into the uncanny valley. But the Reaper? I always end up skedaddling when I get the first whiff of their presence. For every other Leviathan, I can confidently walk on by with little fear, sometimes even sticking around to watch them. But by my third playthrough, 40 hours in, I was actively dreading going anywhere near their prowling grounds, and listening for their distinctive roar was something I always did when exploring areas I haven't before. It's not like I had nothing but violent run-ins either, I've had plenty of times where a Reaper just didn't notice me or attack and I got away scot-free, and my Seamoth had only ever been grappled like, once. And originally, the Reaper was the same.except I got more scared of it as I played. I legit find the Ghost Leviathan weirdly pretty, the Sea Dragon is easy to avoid in both the Prawn and Cyclops, the Chelicerate is just sort of.there, and the Shadow Leviathan was more of an annoyance than a threat to me. This applies to the leviathans across both games, as after the original intimidation factor I start to view them less like sea monsters and more like really angry seafood. Don't know why I don't, maybe it's how easy the game is, maybe it's the fact I treat the animals in the game like, well, wild animals, and keeping my distance and not tarrying has proved to be the most effective means of dealing with them. My immediate reaction was "hey, come back! LET ME SCAN YOU!" When I got to the top, a huge ass face emerged from the depths and took a huge chunk of my health. Fears no one.I remember when I first came across the Reaper I was swimming around the grassy plateaus, I started to move up a large rock formation, closer to the Aurora.
