9/10
Subnautica: PTSD with a side of thalassophobia
7 February 2024
TLDR: Don't play if you're a weenie that's easily scared of horror games, but do play if you want a nice exploration game

Pros:
  • Really cool creature design
  • Massive map that takes a lot of time to fully explore
  • Atmospheric horror is very well done
  • Game does take quite long to beat
  • Extensively mapped out lore
  • Good, simplistic mechanics
  • Flexible gameplay
  • Leviathans are awesome


Cons:
  • Can be a bit too scary in certain aspects (Inactive Lava Zone, Void, Back of Aurora)
  • Incredibly glitchy (constant bugging with animal models)
  • Lack of updates due to support being relocated to Below Zero
  • Plot, story and how to beat the game can be difficult for newbies


Conclusion: Solid game for what it is, would recommend for fans of other open world games such as RDR2, GTA or Skyrim.
