Instead of starting a new thread, I would have tried to search for an existing Subnautica thread(s) but for some reason I cannot access the Operation Sports search page and did not see any active Subnautica threads going back to 2018. So here it is, a new thread to talk about Subnautica. Oh and this is not the Below Zero sequel, this is for the original game (though of course there is no harm talking about both games).
Now why start a thread for a game several years old? Well I guess I missed out when the game first game out. But it was only a little more than a week ago when I was looking at the PSN Spring sales when I came across an offering to download the PS4 version of the game for free. Now I am aware that more gamers play the PC iteration of this game, but the PC iteration was not free while the PS4 was. Of course that was last week. This week the PSN has gone back to charging the normal price.
While this game is not perfect. I have been thoroughly engaged with it like few other games have ever captivated me (oh and I am NOT a hardcore gamer and yet this game has captured my imagination). In the early days of the game it was a dire survival story where I felt the need to constantly seek food/water while still searching for the much needed resources without become a meal for some other creature higher up on the food chain. Luckily I am past those days now where I have established a base where I can grow my own food and have fish in containment tank. So now I progress into the middle stages of the game where it is time to build the skills and experiences to venture deeper into the depths of the ocean knowing damn well that creatures higher up the food chain will be down there ready to inflict as much terror as they possibly can.
Anyway, its an excellent game well worth trying for those like myself who had never played it before.
