I've gone on countless rants about how I loved Subnautica but loathed Below Zero.

In short, I hope that newest entry:

  • stays in the water 90-95% of the time
  • shuts up the protagonist
  • seriously.... shut up. Stop talking. Shut up. Let things be mysterious.

Seriously, Subnautica is one of my favorite games of all time and one of the first to make me care about it's world. I'm only harsh because I want to like it so badly.

Also: I felt like Below Zero was one long trailer for the next game. Especially the ending. So absolutely disappointed.. my kid still remembers my indignant anger at the ending more than the actual game, and still thinks it was the funniest reaction to the ending of any game we've ever played.
