After the second subnautica game was released (which apparently didn't count as subnautica 2???) it was clear that the original game was a fluke and it was kino by complete accident. No faith that subnautica 2 is gonna be any good.
didnt the original writers get booted from the company or some shit? i remember there being some sort of shit that went down between 1 and cold version but i cant remember what exactly.
I remember that below zero had its entire story rewritten halfway through early access, but it was nonsensical trite even before that change.
Tbf the first game really only holds up on a blind play through anyway, since once you know what the game has, it's nothing special. I honestly don't know if it's possible to make a sequel that doesn't go in a completely different direction.
There's been a handful of times I've pitched black women characters that look like this, then after 10 iterations the concept or model comes back without a speck of the original beauty I pitched. https://t.co/gxTvwujcSx

I'm not taking about mild changes. I'm talking about pose, aura, style, softness, age, flair. I hate giving g*mergate men fuel - but it's very difficult to pitch beautiful or vain black women in games without them coming back like grocery store aunties. There is room for both. https://t.co/Z9sapkXkw0pic.twitter.com/h0pRwb2dlm

After some private DMs today with other Black devs - I will no longer be publicly discussing Black Representation in Games for the foreseeable. No more panels, articles, podcasts, nothing. This is not up for discussion, nor is it an invitation to try and change my mind. Cheers.

Subnautica below zero also had an ugly, nappy-headed ebony cupcake protagonist. Idk why this would surprise anyone.
This is the one woke vidya im willing to give another chance considering i enjoyed the original quite a bit. Hopefully this one fixes the glaring bugs present in the original's base-building system.
A lot of the joy is in discovery. Drop in an escape pod on an alien planet, figure it out. Survival elements add some sense of peril, but they're also light so you graduate past them to getting more of the plot. The worldbuilding guides you to new abilities that allow you access to more places you could see but which were too dangerous or impractical to reach. Honestly once you get to the late game and have mastered most of it that's when it gets less good.

I thought the 2nd one was fine. It didn't feel as spooky but it was okay. Prob should have stuck with a silent protagonist though.

everything is so fvcking ugly these days
its all sht from media to architecture to machines and automobiles
its all grey and dull and lifeless
its on purpose
to rip beauty from the world is to snuff the flame from man's heart
to steal the very glimmer from his eye
and that's what they want more than anything. for us to lie down in garbage like 3rdies. and die without resistance.

The other Subnautica 2 was already bad
I don't think the studio even really understands what made 1 so good. It was a fluke on their end.
