Below Zero scratched a bit of the Subnautica itch, but it didn’t reach the same highs. Hopefully Subnautica 2 can somehow recapture some of the magic of the first one.
Pleeeease let the second game be alone with no other characters other than if you’re playing multiplayer. The writing in BZ was uhhhhhh okay. I gave Subnautica an 8/10 but BZ a 6/10. On the real scale, not the stupid-ass game review scale. 6/10 is a good game with flaws.
The first one had one advantage the others will never have, it was brand new, everything was new. Any other that comes out you’ll have expectations. It needs to be better to even match how good it felt to play for the first time.
Really? The key art even had two divers on it during early access. I just remember being kinda bummed when they said it wasn’t happening. I don’t think they knew how their game would turn out at that point and it did turn out great in the end.

This. I hope people remember this.
It was a novel idea superbly executed. It will be difficult, if not impossible, to recreate the mystery.
Eh, i think they don’t really get why the first one was as good as it was. The loneliness was a key part of it imo.
Totally agree. But the inclusion of multiplayer shows they are listening to feedback, as a large portion of the playerbase wanted to have that.
A large portion of the player base wanted it because they advertised it as being a big feature of the first game and then walked back on it.
No, I never even heard of that, I just built a cool base and then wanted to be able to show it to my friends

They explicitly call out that lonely solo play is still a focus.
