A lot of people have brung up the fact that I neglected to mention the Snow Fox, land sections, and the Ice Worm. I personally did the land sections in the Prawn, never built the Snow Fox other than the one time I tried it out and it seemed to barely work, and found the Ice Worms extremely easy to evade in the Prawn. I personally found the Ice Worm a cool background character to make my journey to the land cache a bit more "epic," but overall it was pretty whatever. In all honesty, the fact that I forgot about the Snow Fox, the land portions, and the Ice Worm entirely while writing the script says pretty much all that needs to be said about them.

In the early access the Ice Worm apparantly used to be a really cool high speed chase across the snowscapes, different from Subnautica but cool in its own way, then it was completely wrecked in the final version by the ice worm being given way too huge hit boxes and knocking you off the snow fox each time it hit you

The idea is excellent, a portable minibase solves a common issue in games like this with the player being forced to travel back and forth at all times to collect important items from base or clear their inventory. The sea-truck makes exploration far from base much more seamless and makes themless reliant on fast travelling all the time, but as you said, the idea demands a big map to be more than a gimmick.

The real problem with the seatruck is that while the concept of a modular submarine being cool itself, it goes after the small, practical, nimble... And modular seamoth that is better for short missions, and the bigger, more complete, much more comfortable... And even more modular cyclops that IS better for long range exploration. Actually, the seatruck is like Sub below Zero. It's not necessary that bad... It just comes after the masterclass. Well, fauna in Below Zero is more realistic and goodlooking tbh.

There's also very few good spots to build a base. The drop pod area works, and I always built just to the north of the island near the purple vents because it's a central location, but besides those nowhere else really works. The eastern and southern parts of the map are rarely used, and there's no reason to build a land base because you only need to head out there for 3 locations, most of which you don't need to return to. The sandworm area is huge but you have to rush through it on your snowfox, and the crystal cave, while very pretty, also forces you to rush through it as fast as you can. Once.

The original story writer quit, the change in the game from BZ beta makes it pretty clear why he did. They kept his Marg storyline which he had already mostly completed, he had only just started the main storyline which was ALAN in her head. Sam was supposed to be an overseer in orbit, they got rid of all of that because I guess they felt you werent stranded enough but was supposed to be the actual driving force to get ALAN out asap by avoiding getting caught having done something really stupid. They changed Robin and the PDAs va's for "ethnically diverse" options for example. Why they thought an unrealistically thick indian accent for a pda was a better choice than the light one is beyond me.

If the game didn't force leviathan encounters, it would have been at least 5-10% better. This is another unfortunate side effect of making biomes smaller. One of the reasons why Reaper encounters are great and memorable (compared even to Ghosties and Sea Dragons, and all BZ leviathans) is because you don't get forced to encounter it in narrow spaces, they were in open areas and you always had a choice to f*ck around and find out or run away. The Shadow leviathan spawns were scary the first few times, but because you had to go back and forth in the end game area, it got annoying real quick, forcing me to drill 3/4 of them. I still flinch when I hear a Reaper's roar in the distance while others don't scare me as much anymore.

To me, there were only three main things that made me enjoy BZ less. 1. The story. The main problem is how they basically shoved the story of Sam to the side in favour of Al-An. They either should have gotten rid of Sam's story altogether or found some way to intertwine the stories. Like maybe Sam interacted with Al-An at one point and Al-Al learned of Alterra's plan to weaponize the virus but then Al-An showed Sam how dangerous the Kharra virus is by showing what it did to the Precursor race and that's what pushes Sam to cure the virus. And then Al-An insists that we cure the Leviathan before we leave to force us to resolve the sister storyline. Not saying that's what should have happened but its already better and makes the stories feel more intertwined. 2. The more cramped environment. This is the main thing that seperates the original and BZ for me. The original was vast, open, and even if it was mostly open water, the Leviathans often made you wish it wasn't. In BZ, everything is so cramped which makes exploring less fun. There are exceptions like the Lily Pad biome and the Tree Spires. But in general, the more cramped environment made it less enjoyable as the original. 3. The Seatruck and the Hover bike. Yeah, completely agree. I dislike the sea truck and much favour the Seamoth. I also miss the Cyclops but again, the Cyclops wouldn't have worked with the more cramped environment. And I don't think I need to explain why the hoverbike sucks. Everything else, I did kinda like. I did enjoy the land sections, interacting with Al-An. Didn't really mind the new Leviathans, and I did enjoy the game overall. But it was mainly those three things that made it way inferior to the original.

honestly the game wasn't terrible, but it just felt so bad compared to the other one. The desolation and loneliness was part of what i liked about Subnautica, with the only other voice being the pda voice lines and any logs you find. It made them pop more. BZ had so much dialogue and banter that there wasn't any dead space. As long as you were progressing at an even mediocre pace, you'd just constantly get new banter and voice lines. The Degasi story continuation also made very little sense to me, as the explanation just didn't pass the sniff test(she made a fire...while floating on a dead fish, from its fat, on a planet made 90% of water? and she never got washed out by a storm or rains? and the Ghosts left a dead Reaper alone?). Finding out her sister was, in fact, completely incompetent was actually the point where i lost my drive to even finish the story, especially when the MC refused to acknowledge that. How hard would it have been to write a corporate espionage story with the security guard catching her and trying to stop/kill her, thus having her activate it in a "self-sacrifice" instead of by accident? At least she would have died heroically... as it stands, she's a bumbling idiot and a murderer to boot.

The Seatruck was a good idea, but one that wasn't cooked long enough. Many modules could've been combined, and there needed to be a better way to change the configuration than doing it manually all the time. The first would have helped with the size, while the speed should have had a way smaller negative impact the more modules you had on it, since size and maneuverability are usually more important anyways.

I wasn't paying attention and purchased both games thinking that BZ was dlc to the base first game. Didn't know they were two separate games until the download was complete. I am having such a blast with the first game ( just finished geeking over getting the cyclops), but man am I not looking forward to playing the second one. I'll give it a go cause I did purchase it, but from everything I have heard, I'll chalk this up to lesson learned, pay attention lol.

Playing it rn and my biggest grip about the the seetruck is that the entrance activation boxes are so small and only on top and the "pilot module" activation box is so goddamn big and and right next to the freqking entrance. why?!? I have similar issues with the quantum locker and how often I accidentally put it in my inventory instead of openingtbh. If these alternaternate things need to be next to eachother then at least make them a different buttons like the reload button that does nothing when you dont have a batterey powered in your hands.

Plot is a joke, the truck was fine imo. Land time was lame. I agree with fast transitions and no continuity/connection between zones. Predatory wildlife was lame too comparing to first game, but ok if comparing to any other action game. It lost the first game charm. Still an ok game overall. Sometimes, things can't be repeated. I will never be able to play the first game for the first time ever again. 😢

Overall the game feels small and claustrophobic... I liked that, it felt cozy walking through the tight caves. Looking from a big picture, BZ is entirely different from subnautica, and a proof of that is that you're *not* alone on BZ. It's kinda about perspective: If you think this game tries a different and new feeling/approach to the franchise, it's solid and you'll love it. But if you think it tries to be the same as the first subnautica, then it's completely trash and you'll be bored. As someone who loved the first subnautica and played it until there was nothing else to learn, I didn't go to BZ expecting it to be bigger, scarier, larger and deeper... I just accepted the way it is and it's fine. I had fun, it delivered what I **didn't expect** and I was satisfied by the end. The story feels too linear but the dialogues distract you from this boredom, it's like a podcast sometimes. I hate the land tho, fucking annoying.

Below Zero had the same atmosphere that Tears of the Kingdom did. Namely, it felt like a DLC that was turned into it's own game. The difference being, while one can clearly see how Tears would have originally slotted into Breath of The Wild, and one can also feel some of the same 'emptiness' and 'stretched' nature from Tears, Tears and Breath are still their own games. Good enough on their own, though perhaps sticking to the original vision would have been better. Below Zero, by contrast, doesn't feel like it's own game. It feels like some extra DLC zones for Subnautica that were split off and had a plot hastily slapped onto them. BZ makes more sense if you assume you were supposed to play it as part of the original story.

I mean Below Zero quite literally is extra DLC zones. You can go on the Subnautica wiki and read the cut content article to see just how much stuff got recycled from the first game's development process.

I tought I was the only one who didn't enjoyed SZ, glad I ain't. I would have also mention that half of the map is on solid ground, on a game called "subnautica". I'm playing for that underwater gameplay, there is thousand games where you explore frozen lands, and they are usually better than SZ at that. Islands in the first game were great because they were unespected and shorts. In SZ, half the game takes place on it, making the rest of the sea feeling tiny.

I'm almost certain there's a datacard/pda detailing her escape from the degasi shelter and floating on the corpse of the reaper that attacked them. iirc, she even mentioned burning its fat to keep warm, which makes no sense as the environment would be soaking and fire would be near-impossible.

Controlling the Snow Fox felt like playing a Lego Star Wars vehicle level… FROM THE 2005 GAME! Not even the Complete Saga! I enjoyed the setting of the game, but I didn’t finish it because I couldn’t help but feel as though it was a definite downgrade from the original game, and I couldn’t really put my finger on it as to why until this video. The Sea Truck in particular lost its novelty when playing with a fully stacked truck with each type of compartment made it irritating to actually get around the map. Both in speed and in claustrophobia caves. I will say, the dead zone in Below Zero is WAY MORE FRIGHTENING than in Subnautica. Driving into a black void along the Ice Burg only to get jump scared by massive Chelicerate leviathans will always be one of my personal “Fuck no, baby” leviathan moments in Subnautica.

Another thing is, I bought subnautica 3 times. Once on the family steam account, once on my personal one, and once on the switch because below zero was sold with it. I played ~100 h of subnautica on switch, and besides some lag here and there and graphical limitations, amazing experience. I then booted up below zero, played ~5 hours, crashed 4 times and still had the time to experience everything you talked about here, this game is so short it's borderline a scam.

A different kind of subnautica and i liked it Now im just patiently waiting for the 3rd game

@@ZoofyZoof I'd disagree, there was a charm to the old one, and i don't remember any lines from the new PDA while I'll remember some from the first game to my dying breath. "Detecting multiple leviathan class life-forms in the area. Are you certain whatever you are doing is worth it?" or "this biome displays 7 of the 9 attributes that cause fear in humans." Its almost like a snarky robot. The accent on the new one jest felt too thick. Maybe if you had something like "I picked it because it reminds me of a friend" or something to give a reason for it being non-standard, but they didnt.
