- No Man's Sky is full of creepy and spooky elements for travelers who veer off the beaten path. Rare Terrifying Samples are said to manifest the curse of abyssal horrors to those who hold them for too long. Let's put that idea to the test. I recorded over 100 random space encounters in an attempt to document this phenomenon on video. From Messengers of the Atlas to Stellar Ice to derelict freighters, join me as I brave the common and rare dangers of space in search of the truth!

13:09 i still can't help but admire how they managed to make black hole warping in no mans sky as atmospheric and eerie as it is. with the upgraded visual effects of being able to see your ship in front of you from all perspectives seemingly simulating the real light bending properties of black holes and the soundtrack it really does give the sense that flying into a black hole is a very very risky thing to do and the uncertainty of what lies on the other side.
Although in reality it is certain, since Steven Hawking and other astronomers like Neil deGrasse Tyson (thanks to Steven Hawking's work on Hawking Radiation allowing one to measure the mass of a black hole) proved that blackholes contain a mass equal to what goes into them. They're just a cosmic force implosion, and the technical term for what happens is "spaghettification." Literally the atoms of your body will be shredded and stretched thin like spaghetti then condensed into the imploding mass. Once the density becomes unstable at about the point a black hole has consumed as much as everything in the known universe it explodes (e.g. The Big Bang).
It's cool, but I still prefer the Outer Wilds version. Seeing your HUD break because of the black hole is so cool
But the new warp effect is lame, the old one was better where it looked like it was really barely holding on at the speed it was moving
Meh, warp and black hole effects should be a lot more violent imo. I love the way the ship shudders and shakes massively in Interstellar, for instance
@@Hawk7886 that's because Interstellar endurance wasn't designed to warp through blackhole
The curse was the discoveries we made along the way.
And the enemies we had also made along the way
the curse was paying 60 for this in 2016
“Units received.”
@@jet2550 omg, it's the thing from fallout 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
I have no idea why but this actually made me laugh
I picked up one of these and after awhile started hearing strange creepy noises while in the ship flying around. The noises aren't very loud but I knew they were from that artifact. I sold the item right away because the sounds were really scary. after I sold it the creepy sounds stopped right away.
That sounds so cool! I'll definitely go hunting for one of these now 🤤
I’ve picked up a cursed object a number of times and always meant to hang on to one but would forget what it was and end up selling it, seeing that pretty price tag, every single time 😅
Would love to see them actually do something in game. Like have their value increase for every real day you have one on your person (up to a week), but having them on you causes your tech to take damage easier or have pirates more likely to target you. Or, how about having to deal with an occasional wave of sentinel attacks? Maybe the damage could increase by each day and the sentinels would get harder and harder to defeat. That would make a super cool mod, if any modders happen to read this!
Items that increase danger for a reward sounds like an awesome idea. I know I'd keep one around! Thanks for sharing.
To be honest, i think a cursed item wouldnt really make more frequent sentinel/pirate attacks, however, an item of high value to them (Pirates being money, and sentinels being sentinel stuff) could do it instead! (Just an idea :)
no way man trap instead move illegal items through galaxies youll be better off making a farm than selling your rare items
It would be cool if we could find a cursed item that actually does something bad. Like the tiki idol from the brady bunch.
"I understood that reference!"
Lol, I remember that!
Wait the floppy jelly doesn't do anything?
Wow, thats a deep cut
It would keeps summoning cosmic horrors to you, tech in your exosuit or starship break a lot more often and it downgrades your stats
To determine whether exiting pulse at the plasmic accidents were automatic, just look at how much frames there was between the notification for the deep space anomaly and your ship pulling out of pulse drive!
If the frame count between the notification and at the exiting from pulsing at both plasmic accidents are the exact same, then it was automatic, because - although you're one of the best - the chances of you reacting in the exact same time at each events are miniscule.
Also you can compare those two with a previous anomaly when you didn't get a plasmic accident, but your fingers already had the muscle memory for exiting pulse.
They spawn in front of you when you exit pulse. It doesn't stop you automatically. If you want you can keep pulsing past the anomaly if you don't want to stop for it
This is brilliant
@@FrozenPantiezzz you misunderstood the point of the video.
Only discovered your channel recently. Thanks for all your time documenting the NMS universe. Keep up the great work :)
Thanks for watching! Glad you found me and are enjoying the videos.
This is one of the things I love about NMS, even though I've been playing since day 1, there are still new things to learn. I've never noticed the curse phenomenon in the game. No other content creator I know of has even mentioned it. Your hard work has paid off, new subscriber here.
I think I have gotten the cursed artifact from a frigate mission before. I always sell it.
Man, after 1500+ hours and 1000s of videos and all the discussion in the community, No Mans Sky still surprises me.
Next time I get one, I'm holding on to it.
I love videos like these that delve into the more obscure aspects of the game.
Jesus, my dude, your dedication is absolutely epic. I'm still a noob at this game, so hearing you, telling about your journey, and how many systems you've visited, made me realize how much more I need to discover. You just got a new subscriber, man. Congrats, just simply due to your motivation and dedication, which, to be fair, should be commended.
When that item dropped for me i just flogged it straight away, i assumed it was just flavour text like everything else "rare seed sample that should be responsibly deposited in a seed bank" = sell it
Kanaju, well done. You come up with some of the most original and creative ideas in this game.
This man's channel is just great NMS content I hope you get more popular because you deserve it for your hard work😊
The curse is real, actually. Tested this myself, actually flying around carrying 6 monstrous samples, one of them of high value. You get the extreme sub-audible message, and if you don't move from the spot, a weird plasma storm starts to form. If you move the ship around some, you can glimpse the icon of a deep space object at the corner of the cockpit screen, but when you turn to it, nothing is there. More like being haunted. Would try with a living ship to see if there is more of a reaction, but don't have one yet.
Thank you for this video! I respect the dedication!
Thank you for trying to figure this one out. I've always felt as though I hadn't held on to a cursed object long enough to do anything. I had something, can't remember what it was, that I had realized was in my freighters cargo for around a month or so of gameplay. Hadn't really noticed anything weird.
The day I watched this (yesterday) I actually found two the curse relics in a row (after maybe 13 total jump encounters because I’m a new switch player) immediately after on the next planet I landed at, a gigantic worm flew over me (which apparently is also an effect from the “curse” on Reddit). Since I’m on the switch I was able to capture video of both the relics and the worm as well!
Loved it. Loved the ending. Great content as always. Also, Happy Halloween to you and your wife as well Chris.
Thanks, Mike! I hope you had a happy Halloween as well.
The end gave me chills ngl… Excellent work bro can’t wait to see the other vids you’re working on!
Padaaaa!
@@Coinz8 Golddddd!
Thanks for watching! And maaan, I'm editing one that I had recorded a couple of weeks ago but the audio sounds like I must have been sick that day or something. lol It was unscripted, so I can't rerecord it. In typical fashion it's taken weeks and dozens of hours to create a single Assassin's Creed video. 🤷♂️ After that I'll get back to using that beautiful NMS footage I recorded during this session. lol
Look forward with anticipation! AC is a great series of games 😆, coincidentally, I just came down with a nasty cold and won’t be able to record for a few days
Beautifully done, great story telling, kudos to you.
I usually avoid anomolies that won't parlay. I don't feel like messing around with stopping to sell their stuff.
I encountered that anomoly you showed with the huge eye. It wouldn't leave me alone and kept blocking my flight path, saying nothing. I decided to c scan it and it reacted like it was a flash bulb. It's eyes were all swirly and it seemed kind of dizzy, and I was able to fly past it no problem.
I thought it was pretty funny.
yeah it doesnt like being messed with :3
I’m really enjoying the chill vibes your videos have. Definitely hitting that sub button. 🤙
part of the description specifically says "this galaxy and the next" maybe thats a hint? have you tried changing galaxies while carrying it?
Impressive the amount of hours you've gone about to find that!! I got what you were looking for after 15 times of trying!
O sshhii i swear watching your vids always just makes me wanna play it even tho its nearly midnight (and i still got this video to watch too ;) )
Dude, your voice is like... Calming. And the gameplay is great! New sun here my dude.
Great job!
I found ur channel not to long ago and im really enjoying the videos they make me want to buy NMS
I can give it a try if you want. I mean I figured out the anomaly strength, boundary failing on them weird planets. Maybe not in full, but definitely different results than what I had read about on reddit and such, seemed it was the same type of observations, but honestly there is alot of really neat hidden things!
Terrifying sample, might need to be met with certain conditions as you mentioned in your video, I will have to look into it, sounds like something fun!
I've been enjoying your videos, you clearly put a lot of effort into these so thankyou. Dropped you a sub to show my appreciation 👍
I figured it was just for flavor
But it still gave me the creeps.
I love that sort of thing in games, really reminded me of the creepy flavor text in games I grew up on.
I been playing NMS since it's launch and things you guys put on video I've never had an idea it was even in the game, I mean I have gone into other galaxies now btw as far as I seen no way back unless you join someone elses game still in Elucid lol
Thank you for doing this and I'm sorry that you did this
Nice! I have been looking for info that explains the artifact exchange at a Big Archive. Can you point me in the right direction so I can learn how that works? Thanks Kanaju! Oh, I just read what the wiki says about this. I was sorta thinking I already knew all there was to know but you are the guy with the Secrets of the NMS Universe LOL
Yes a video to see what these do and how to interact with them.
Man, I haven’t played No Man’s Sky since 2020. These vids are making me want to pick it up again.
Far better game these days
@@HateEbk I know that, but nostalgia’s a hell of a drug. I played it regularly for an entire year after launch and on and off for 3 years after.
The only reason I really stopped was because I moved out and had to leave my PS4 behind and didn’t feel like starting over
Nice video man!
Thanks for watching!
When you said “Get it? Got it?…. Good.” I felt that. 😂
I was independently running this study ever since finding one first time years ago. can confirm pseudo effectiveness, but no timed events.
Automagically, I love it.
A curse that stalks you across the universe? Yep sounds like those space telemarketers that always wanna sell me stuff. XD
I didn't know a rogue blackhole was so rare. I've found one. Will be curse hunting too !
Dammit. Ive been bingeing your stuff podding catch up on what I've missed since in stopped playing... i had one of these in my new play through. And sold it for storage 😅😬
I got one, and shortly afterwards my exosuit mentioned something about weird noises. Like "sonic disturbances detected" or something. Nothing else, and it might not have had anything to do with the curse. It was within minutes of picking up the terrifying sample though.
I wish there were random quests you could go on that are procedurally generated and could give you random rewards that are unique like customization items only you have, or weapon types only you have like a weapon upgrade that shot a green goo that turns things into crystals or diamonds for instance (something crazy like that), or parts for your ship that really makes it unique. This type of thing might not be possible and might just be a future feature for this type of game but I really wish NMS had something like that to solidify it’s replay-ability.
on one of the expeditions, got that item somehow. Thought it a curious item, might sell it as fast as I could. The strange part of it, I can swear, is that I encountered it several times in the same playthrough. Don't remember was it repapering in my inventory, or on the shop shelfs, but swear to endless cosmos, it was following me. Or maybe it could be my luck, encountering it that many times.
Ironically, I keep a terrifying sample in my exosuit as a good luck charm. I haven't noticed anything unusual, unfortunately.
How did you get the little Atlas station in your ship like that? It's awesome. Did you have to use anomaly detectors for each of your encounters? Just wondering whether I should stock up on them or not to try out the curse myself. And I love the clips of the black holes towards the end, you really got some cool footage dude. Looking forward to the next videos!
I think you can get it with Quicksilver
It’s available for around 3k quicksilver
I used a couple of anomaly detectors when in systems with very little activity, however the rest (over 100) encounters occurred on their own. And thanks!
@@Kanaju so I think the curse associated with the items is forcing nexus missions to be cancelled whenever a purple mission appears on the list. I tried to do other quests and they would be auto cancelled until I chose the purple one, which took me to an infested titan worm planet. Then all of the other nexus missions for the day took me to other titan planets. I have some screenshots I'll send you
I've been carrying three terrifying samples on my character for over 100 hours of gameplay if there is one it has yet to take effect on me
I see! More testing is required on my part. I just got another one a couple nights ago that I'm going to keep around. Thanks for sharing your experience!
Newer player here, I'm really glad I saw this 1:54 here before in-game because it would have scared the shit out of me
I was carying some of those funny appalling relics, and during that time, I got those funny abyssal horrors more then anything else.
I was cursed spending all this time watching this video til the end. LOL
nah but the screamer at the end xD
At least you got something out of it^^
I don't know about curses but I feel like there's a hidden routine that records and adjusts to ones play style.
First time I ran with Artemis, it was just after the update, and I'd get thrown miles on leaving the ship. Felt like the atlas picking you up and spiking you off the ground for digging where you shouldn't. To this day, I'm a little wary that red orb is watching, unblinking. Waiting to send me to space sans the ship should I displease it.
You are garanteed one in the utopia expidtion.
Curses are real in NMS. What you showed to us and what gamers use during the live streaming. 😉
Thanks for the video 🥂
Hahaha true! Lots of curses after 4.0 especially. 😳 Thanks for watching!
I got one of those in the Utopia expedition, but I sold it before the curse happened cos I needed the inventory space.
Unnerving Spores is another terrifying sample
What the hell are the chances that I found one of these things randomly on my first ever derelict freighter just today, and immediately sold it, thinking nothing of it?
I think the Ironbound Relic also has a chance to drop one of these cursed items, but I might be wrong.
I've had it happen. I have a terrifying sample that says its lived over 300 lifetimes or so and is like 5 million units for one
After all the play throughs (10x) I have remade I have only ever seen the Atlas one!
Damn i got here WAY earlier than usual
Same
Chilling Gelsack was the name of the item. It made eyeballs roll around the planets.
Wait is that a playable derelict freighter at 6:23? I didn’t even know they can spawn without a reciever
Yep! They have a small chance of spawning randomly without the use of a broadcast receiver. I think I've only had them randomly show up 2 or 3 times ever.
I have been carrying around multiple terrifying samples for, I want to say, two years now hoping for the curse to be real lol.
Yay!
I wish they'd invent random encounters for ON the planets, they're still just too uniform.
My friend and I were just discussing this! It would be so cool if we had more of those. Thanks for watching!
i too will start the journey to find the curse
There is another side to this. A school of thought that says if these objects are cursed, then the other ones if that family of rewards actually bring luck. The gold coloured T3 objects over a certain age, the sunken treasure, flora sample, the one u get from the salavged date etc etc etc. the theory is having one of each of these in your suit and ship helps spawn S class ships quicker and when using maps to find multi tool cabinets will direct you to an S class location sooner.
So, I don't know if this is helpful information but I am not the most dedicated player in no man's sky I have been playing for like 233 hours total I believe. During this time I have received probably 6+ the tainted orbs or anything else that is this "cursed item" and I never paid attention to it, until the 5th one I received and so I decided to keep it and I had it for well over 80+ hours and just completely forgot about it. The only thing I can recall happening is that by coincidence I started running into the "Child of Helios" space encounter as well as the "Asteroid Larva" encounter more frequently but it wasn't automatically taking me out of the pulse jumps. Overall I believe that if someone, AKA Hello Games, took the time to make something then it's there for a reason. We may not know what the purpose of these items is or if they just serve as lore in the present No Man's Sky, but it may be possible that Hello Games can use this idea for an expedition or an update. Regardless, great content and keep up the good videos, I was surprised you didn't encounter "Rubble of the First Spawn" then again I've only seen that one or two times myself.
There are curses when you scan all the plants on a planet and the mission to do that task doesn't finish.
I got a cursed item the other day I recently got rid of it. It said it would follow me and haunt me but I didn't keep it long enough for anything
I had 1, I was getting a lot of Anomalies popping up. 1 gave me quicksilver!?! I stored it on Freighter and now I've only encountered the derelict freighters. I don't know if it's normal, but I find a lot of crashed freighters also. I'll take it back and see if I begin to get space Anomalies again.
Wait is the Twisted Orb is rare, or what? I got one at some point, thought it wasn't much, though I got a bit scared by the description
A rogue black hole? That's scary
1:56 phone flew out of my hands. Goddamn
Do you have a little bobblehead on your ship dash? :o
I do! Available from the Quicksilver Synthesis Companion on the anomaly. The Atlas and Polo are my favorites.
2:01 best joke on RUclips.
Wow I had no idea this would waste our time
easiest way for space encounter get the mining space pulse drive maps that increase and garantee space encounter. the pulse drive map drop rarely from space mining during ore mining. that will reduce the time to test this.
So you couldn’t find ‘the’ curse so you instead curse your own video with a jump scare, I like it XD.
The only curse I know of is if that apparently you can come across that girl from the ring, but I've only seen her in the anomaly. It's been a while since I've played though.
You should have asked me.
NO THEY'RE NOT.
I kept 10 'cursed' items in my inventory for nearly a year (over 1,000 hrs of game play) and nothing happened.
I love this game
Tell that to the black hole that appeared directly at the entrance of a T3 system's space station out of the blue.
I just picked up a "cursed" object and a black hole appeared. Coincidence?
I was wondering about warping to new systems.
There is a curse. It's called all the traders that mess with you. So much rep has been lost due to them.
What is the atlas bobble head in your ship? How did you get it?
I think you can buy it with Quicksilver
Did you know that you quoted the classic movie The Court Jester? Check it out sometime!
one that teleport's your ship in the wrong way. lol.
Compare your results with what we already know about pulse clocks, that would give a definitive answer
the curse is encumbrance of OCD XD ur all flying around with a slot taken up in ur inventory unable to get rid of the item due to ur own obsession to see what happens
I came across a cursed item and I didn’t want to know if it was real. It weirded me out. I sold it immediately. lol
13:35 JESUS CHRIST THAT WAS LOUD
Hah no way, I encountered one of these the first time I played after the update
actualy it is true. Ive experianced this myself on several occasions it sucks but the samples are worth a good chunk of cash. Though it dosent work like the internet says it does. It forces frequent encounters that will almost always be a plasmic accident. At least thats what happened when i went to find this stuff myself
