Subnautica 2

Absolutely amazing! However, I feel like the progression being moved from top-to-bottom to west-to-east kind of made the experience slightly worse. I want to see deeper dives into more cave esque systems again! Not having the open air over you makes you feel so much more claustrophobic, and it makes challenges with Leviathans feel scary, like there is no escape. Anyway, for being an early access, this is a great start! The lack of killing predators doesn't really bother me all that much, and as much as it would definitely be a good addition, I never really had any issues with the predators other than Marrowbreaches endlessly attacking me. I also don't like that the game feels split into two sections - the beginning one in the coral gardens, and the secondary one in the ruins. After moving over to the second area, I never went back to the first one, mostly because I didn't see a reason to. It feels like this is kind of a result of the east-west format, as you have to keep moving forward instead of consistently venturing deeper. In the original Subnautica, it would be extraordinarily time consuming to make your base in the lost river. Non-rare resources are scarce and most of the time there's just no reason to. Here, you're actively encouraged to make a new one in the ruins, meaning that the new one essentially becomes your main one, as literally all the resources you need are in the ruins. In fact, I had a way better time getting resources in the ruins rather than in the gardens. Anyway, I hope these concerns will be somewhat satisfied moving forward, and I still appreciate how well-done the early access is. Although I have one last suggestion - PLEASE BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL SUBNAUTICA PDA VOICE IT WAS SO PERFECT PLEASE UNKNOWN WORLDS. Thank you.
