The "Indirect" stage normally occurs when the watcher is outside the submarine with the player being inside, this stage applies minor Nausea and Psychosis, along with small screen distortions. Said distortions resemble warped glass, with objects and items being changed appearance-wise as the player's camera moves around.

The "Direct" stage is much more extreme, involving heavy Nausea and Psychosis and causing extreme screen distortion, making it almost impossible to see clearly. It should be known that while this affliction by itself is harmless, the Nausea that comes from it will slowly damage the player with {{Hyperlink|Organ Damage|20|Affliction Organ Damage}} until they eventually perish, but this process takes an extremely long amount of time and will most likely never happen outside of horribly bad luck.

Keep in mind that this affliction's stage system is completely range based, so it's entirely possible to get the extreme "Direct" stage while still inside the submarine if the player are unfortunate enough to be very close to the area the Watcher is observing if it's very close to the submarine.

Seeming confused and slightly terrified, the patient doesn't look good. Could it be a mental breakdown? A stress reaction? There's not much you can do about it.

"Watcher's Gaze" is an affliction that is applied when a Watcher is nearby. The only cure is to gain distance from the Watcher and wait for the effects to subside.

The Affliction itself has two distinct stages of intensity, applying multiple other afflictions such as Psychosis and Nausea. The two stages will be referred to as "Indirect" and "Direct".

The "Indirect" stage normally occurs when the watcher is outside the submarine with the player being inside, this stage applies minor Nausea and Psychosis, along with small screen distortions. Said distortions resemble warped glass, with objects and items being changed appearance-wise as the player's camera moves around.

The "Direct" stage is much more extreme, involving heavy Nausea and Psychosis and causing extreme screen distortion, making it almost impossible to see clearly. It should be noted that while this affliction by itself is harmless, the Nausea that comes from it will slowly inflict Organ Damage.

This affliction's stages are based on range, so it is entirely possible to get the extreme "Direct" stage while still inside the submarine if the Watcher is very close.
