Subnautica: Below Zero

The continuation of the amazing Subnautica causes mixed impressions during playthrough and a very nasty aftertaste in the end.

Almost everything good that is in this game migrated from the first part. ​

Of the really nice innovations, I can only highlight little things in the form of indicators of battery charge and food freshness on the icons of these things in the inventory. Finally, you can switch the map and the flashlight on the glider separately. And in general that's all.

The main character has been added to the game. In the sense that they added him as a person. Appearance, chatter, etc. And this stupid sheep is ruining all immersiveness. She doesn't say anything particularly smart. Attitudes towards her range from indifference to fierce hatred.

The map has lost a lot in scale and dep… Read full

I am one of those people who really liked the second part, even moreover, one can say that it was after the 2nd part that I became a real fan of Subnautica.

Not ideal of course, there are some nuances.

On the plus side:

1) nicer interface, better graphics

2) events are now developing on land, or rather, now it’s 50/50. There are both land and water biomes, as for me, this diversifies the game and gives more opportunities and mechanics.

3) plot! There is more emphasis on the plot, which makes the game much more interesting to play through, and it is not limited to just survival for the most part, as in the first subnautica.

4) a small bonus in the form of expanding the functionality of the game, such as the ability to attach drawings, a freshness indicator, additional tools, charging batterie… Read full

After completing the first Subnautica, I immediately went looking for a sequel and found Subnautica Below Zero. And, naturally, I downloaded it immediately.

And what can I say: the game is no worse than the first part. Yes, the world has become smaller, some instruments are made a little differently than I’m used to, yes, there are no familiar plants. But a lot of new things have appeared. The list of plants and fish has expanded, and new funny creatures have appeared. Have you petted the baby Stalker? This is such a biting beauty. And penguins and monkeys - they’re adorable. There is an opportunity to repaint the base. How the standard white color infuriated me, but now at least paint it in the colors of the rainbow.

A new transport has appeared. This is, of course, not a Moth, but the Sai… Read full

Good game, but it lags a lot for me.

Subnautica is an amazing game with an open beautiful underwater world in the style of survival. The only thing missing is dolphins. But everyone will find something of their own in the game.

The game doesn't compare to Subnautica. They put in place a woman director whose work was generally bad, then expect a dull and stupid plot in part 2, I’ve never seen anything stupider in my life.

The reservoirs are not deep, the algae forest is light, not gloomy and not muddy (which squeezed out fear in part 1), you can swim to the edge of the map in 2 minutes, the area is not memorable (there are no landmarks) like with Aurora. Exploration is poorly rewarded, the world is boring and uninteresting. But the news of same-sex love evokes cringe (they put it in every game now)

Immediately, having finished the first, I moved on to the second, and was already in the mood for an even greater adventure and exciting sea creatures, but it turned out to be too fast, the plot flew by like lightning. The graphics turned out to be more elaborate and pleasant, all these highlights and sparkles, flashes and glows were pleasing to my eye. The feeling of loneliness that added a special atmosphere in the first part was lost, which was very noticeable. It became possible to walk across large expanses of land, while the world was several times smaller, but richer, you could call it compact. I really liked the idea of ​​music, but it also affects the atmosphere of loneliness. In general, I was not very pleased, but not upset either.

The game subnautica below zero in early access leaves much to be desired.

So far interesting and different from Subnautaca, the plot is very cool. I advise everyone to play when it comes out.

The game is fun, very funny indeed. Well, compared to the first part, it is very different. Firstly, the diversity of fauna and creatures. In the first subnatica there are about 100+ creatures, and in the Below Zero add-on there are about 50 of them. This is the first disadvantage. The plot is bad in all parts. Another bad thing is that there are very few vehicles and this is a HUGE minus. As a critic, I give the Below Zero add-on 8/10 (according to my calculations, it’s not bad)
