Shorter than the original game. More narration, with 2 NPC. Different vehicules, monsters and recipes. Some exploration on land with a frost meter.
I've put hundreds of hours into Subnautica from when it first came out on my old Xbox One. The thrill and terror of the first game cannot be understated. Then there's Below Zero. I was looking forward to this game. I followed its progress through beta and saw the potential. Despite its kind of mediocre story, the biomes are beautiful even if they're underutilized. I do think this game makes an effort to recreate the parts of Subnautica, but really fails to create the unsettling atmosphere. What I can say is it still manages to somewhat capture my sense of wonder to explore and discover creatures and fauna, and the grind of finding resources is addicting as was true of the first game. All flaws aside, it's a good game. If you treat it less like a sequel it's much easier to enjoy.
Instead of listening to the haters you should listen to the voice inside your head. If you see this game on sale buy it.
Forced myself to play through this game and it was not nearly as good as the first one. Whole time playing the game it was like trying to find a needle in a haystack. The seatruck was a piece of ♥♥♥♥, no devs i don't want to drive the modular dildomachine 9000 for the entirety of the game. Bring my goat Riley back.
This game was a serious step down from the first Subnautica. The zones and world are smaller and the new vehicle added is clunky and cannot fit into the smaller spaces in caves, even those pivotal to progression. I won't spoil too much but there is even an element of the story that can be skipped completely i you just don't fell like doing it.
2 words, absolute cinema.
The feel of open ocean and beauty of original SubNautica is not here. Tunnels, tunnels, caves. Feels claustrophobic and repetitive. The story line is primitive too.
Posso solo dire fantastico aspetto il 2 I can only say fantastic I'm looking forward to the 2nd
