I never forget. I sat in my cyclops and was shiting my self and then the sea dreagon pulls up. The leviathans in subnautica are just so much better

I didn't agree with removing David. He IS Solid Snake

I've been watching the development of Subnautica since early release through TH-camrs, and I've never been able to play the game. Now I have for the first time, and I have yet to go to the Aurora cuz I'm too scared (ಥ ͜ʖಥ)

Put a chick in it make it gay!

Also can’t forget the fact that leviathans in the first game were all goddamn wallhackers, I’ve seen the Sea Dragon around the Primary Containment facility swim straight out the walls far too many times

I own every Tomb Raider game ever made. I played Tomb Raider 1 on the Sega Saturn. I'm 44.

Can we all just talk about those fire transitions that he just sprinkled throughout the video.

I think that it is kind of hard to compare the two because they are so different. I Love both games but for me they are not the same. I like the story of Below Zero and that is why i play it. I play the orignal when i want imersion.

Imagine a dev watching this and realizing you made hot garbage that was significantly worse than the original game

This made me want to replay subnautica again, good job :3

The main loss is that the much more enclosed environments in below zero keep everything in visibility range. There isn't the fear that something could be waiting in the fog far away anymore. To be honest, I think the reduced map size was partially because of the engine limits. Subnautica had hellish draw distance, where entire chunks of terrain would disappear at 30 meters. The game tried to hide it with fog, but the regions on the map without fog, particularity the above-ground mushroom forest, looked like melted plastic.

Below Zero didn't give me the same feeling of anxiety but also wonderment.

yo what-? bro for this quality of video I was lowkey expecting atleast 20-200k subscribers lmao. Like you deserve wayyy more

Before watching the video, my opinions on why it sucked: -They didn't understand what made the first game good -World felt smaller -Pointless land section in a game about underwater exploration, talk about bad game design -Needless DEI ESG MC, shoehorned politics, yaaaaay -Shit audio logs, instead of pertaining to survivors its all just goofy nonsense -None of the new 'monsters' are scary. They all look like scaley dolphins and stuff. They're loud, but not scary. Just annoying, really. -The seatruck just kinda sucked. -It felt half-assed tbh -They didn't take the opportunity to improve things from the first game, like scanning for example. They added a new scanning tool but it was pointless. -the story sucked balls -the setting. 'I'm a survivor of a crash' is so much more interesting than 'I'm a corporate worker looking for why my sister died' in a SURVIVAL game. -and more!

I have played Subnautica multiple times (heck replaying it now) but only played Below Zero once and that was enough for me.

I never played, watched, or involved myself in anything Subnautica below zero because I had a feeling it was going to be a disappointment. Today I decided to see how and what Subnautica below zero was. It's even worse than I imagined. It's literally making me angry and frustrated that they ruined my precious Subnautica Has nothing to do with this but the leviathans (at least in the original) are disappointingly small. Like when I was a kid I remembered the leviathans being, well. Leviathan size. But they're so small. I think the smallest leviathans should've been sea emperor size and the "big ones" like the sea emperor, roofback and others a LOT bigger than the sea emperor

The First Sync speaker was so much better . Sehe was Sweet and curious and funny. Theo new one takes the character to though

Yes, yes I did watch this whole video!

Imo, it didnt fail. I really loved the game, the new vehicles, the story, the building all really good. And dont get me started on the creatures

altho most points of this video were based (i still like below zero in all fairness) the last one was the (second) best. GIVE ME SEA mOTH AND CYCLOPS......... and the points about thew story with the lack of isolation/ lack of being able to be the main cheractor were actually the most based

i disagree with how bad the end game caves were in the second game. there aw wondering and terror/horrer effect was great, altho very short lived due to lack of things in them such as story/ structures and how the lathiathans eventually got annoying (the first game fell victim to this too, just not as bad), but i can still remember how scared i was when i saw my first lathiathan down there, and hiding from them in the crevases, but then eventually tormenting them with my prawn suit once they got annoying (something i would never do with my prawn suit with the lava lathiathins in the first game). and the even lower level cave with the red crystals were altho cool, kinda just a rinse and repeat of the first one.

i feel like with the lessons learned with "below zero" david kalina gunna do a good job with "subnautica 2", and fireing Simon Chylinski was the wrong move- altho below zero's music was still pretty good, and i especially love "subnautic stimulus". honestly if they just took the firsts game's ambience and sound design, and the song disc colection of the second game (i would love to see more of those made), you couldnt get much better than that for the third game.

for me its cuz its called SUBNAUTICA literally meaning below water, and a good portion of sub bz is above water on land

Ive played through the 1st at least 5 times and its amazing every time. I only played below zero once. It was good but man the first was it

I couldn't quite pin down why i didnt like the second on as much as the first, but this is why, thanks.

Less replayable, but Below Zero was a great game. This seems overdramatic.

The Leviathans in Subnautica were designed to be the apex predators of their respective environments. The leviathans in BZ were designed for fear factor only. That is what ultimately makes them less scary. BZ tries to have more of those "haha i got you" moments, whereas Subnautica doesn't.

Incredible video! Great job.

I agree with98% of your review. I played All multiple times and I've manged to do 2 3 really good on modern controlls the the time I used tank control for all weapons cheat on new game+.

I still have PTSD from my first encounter

Personally, I love both Games. Yes I preferred the first game, but that's because it's bigger and more vast And also because it has the cyclubs. When they make the Third game, what it need to have is Huge underwater submarines where you need to play with other people too, Man the submarine. Of course, there should also be some submarines that it's big, but you can pilot alone. This is what I would love to see in a third game bigger. Oceans and submarines.

I would absolutely love to see a playthrough of Subnautica from you!

one of my all time favourite moments in subnautica was back on xbox when it was in EA, I was scaning myself parts for the cyclops near the Aurora and heard the scream of a reaper and the sheer TERROR of swiming as fast as I could towards my seamoth and hopping in it hidden in the nearby mushroom trees, only to see the tail of the reaper just slowly swim by

Hey man, I've just found your channel after I was recommended your Subnautica video and I've been loving your review videos! Absolutely fantastic work!

I believe below zeros music was better than the originals

No Cyclops Smaller map Snowfield areas of boring snooze Too much dialog from whiney Robin

TBH I feel Below Zero and its story would've done better as *DLC* than a sequel.

Even though I think Subanutica was better than Below Zero, I dont think its nearly as bad as this video made it seem. I mean they could not just do the exact same game again... Below Zero was still a fantastic game, this video made it sound like an awful game. It was different but not all in bad ways.

Sub 3 will be great. They just have to focus less on the monsters and world building, and more on the gay black women, which sweet baby inc will give them a good score on.

With the Subnautica multiplayer mod it makes the game 100x better. The only issue is the cancel of the mods development made it very buggy and with no fixes the game has sometimes been unplayable.

Subnautica makes you feel like its you against the world where Below Zero is someone your playing as making a dumbass decision in a walking simulator

But she's a brave black queen!!!!1!!

Charge Fins keep seaglider charge at 100% fulltime, curious that you're a seaglider advocate and missed this. You could even use the seaglider as a portable charger for the batteries of your other tools

The best part of the original subnautica was how the story was somewhat detached from the gameplay itself for most of the game, slowly becoming more apparent as you went on. In below zero it just threw it all at you from the get go.

No matter if the immersion was damaged, replaying og subnautica with coop was just as, if not more, fun to play. I mean, obviously one against an entire world has a more isolated, cautious and sad feel to it that two against the world, but it trades off with so many more unforgettable experiences. And i did too think that birds that flew through the ground in the first game could've been better. If there were more species with their unique unexpected behaviours to live even on relatively small biomes like the islands would it hurt the experience or make it even better? In the end it doesn't really matter what the components to the next game are: any promising ones could be turned shallow as much as any weird and disappointing ideas can work surprisingly well, if implemented correctly. They had their highs and lows, as well as years to reflect on their mistakes.

Battle is really good, the setting and rpg elements are more "meh". Didn't really catch me. But I loved the combat and wish there were more games like this. Loved to always seek out the advantage in combat and be really tactical.

My biggest issue is the voice acting. Just let me be a silent protagonist again. I liked it better when I was the one on the adventure, not some cringy teen

The lack of horror compared to the first and the obnoxious protagonist and more character interaction based story really did degrade the game imo. The lonely, quiet, often scary feeling of the first game is what really makes it. The leviathans aren't even frightening in this one, and they run away from you if you ram them with a sea truck lol.

The sea truck being a glacially slow, clumsy stick was a shame. Having it follow your movement like a segmented, slinky snake at a brisker pace would have made it worth using.
