Endless Ocean Luminous Part 3 [No Commentary]
8This sessions portion is exclusively solo diving, as we need to scan a lot of creatures to unlock the next chapter. And there are a lot of creatures that are found and plenty of salvage to uncover. Plus why rush the game when it's intended to be a cozy go at your own pace?
We also discover the unusual biometrics mechanic. Scan a certain amount of certain random creatures and be awarded with a special creature? Time to get searching.

Taken from the Wiki:
Endless Ocean Luminous is an adventure simulation game developed by Arika and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo Switch. As the third game in the Endless Ocean series, Luminous marks the first installment since 2009's Endless Ocean 2: Adventures of the Deep for the Wii.
Similar to previous entries, the player takes the role of a scuba diver tasked with encountering and documenting marine life. Additionally, the game features online multiplayer that allows groups of up to 30 players to explore together. The game was announced in a February 2024 Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase and released on May 2, 2024.
Endless Ocean Luminous tasks the player with exploring the Veiled Sea, a fictional, unexplored region, in order to encounter and document marine life. The game itself has over 500 species to learn about, including creatures that are deemed mythical or extinct such as the Mosasaurus. Outside of marine life, the player can also explore underwater structures such as temples and shipwrecks. Luminous features a new mechanic for the series in which the region will change with each dive the player goes on.
Unlike the multiplayer modes in previous installments, the game allows groups of up to 30 online players to embark on dives together. Players in groups can share their findings and communicate between one another via emotes.
