Subnautica

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.

This might actually be the best survival game ever made! There are so many reasons why I love this Game. Here's my list 1. The story: The story is great. Basically you land on this abandoned planet the has a very deadly disease on it called the Kharaa. Your goal is to get off the island without being infected. 2. The setting: This maybe one of the most beautiful game I have ever played. The water looks amazing. Don't even get me started on the way the light bounces of surfaces and the water. 3. The sound/music: OH MY GOD THIS GAMES SOUND DESIGN IS OFF THE CHART!!! Not only is the music awesome, the sounds of all the creatures are absolutely amazing. 4. The creatures: The animals are very creative. The game devs made Giant scary water monsters and also sweet creatures that you cant help but love.

If you're not sure about buying this game I would watch JackSepticEye's latest play through of it. Then you might buy it.

10/10, sure could improve some things but in general it's a masterpiece from beginning to end

This game has everything, -Adventure -Survival and Creative modes -Some thrilling horror aspects -A deep story that's easy to grasp the basics of but has many small parts that can be discovered -Great graphics for its time I absolutely love this game, and I've completed it enough times to say that it has amazing replayability because there's so many different ways to go about completing it.

This is the only survival game I can stand to play except the sequel, and it's amazing. Highly recommended! It's still a tiny bit buggy even now, but the visuals, story and feel are amazing. If you have thessalaphobia, I suggest looking elsewhere besides a survival game that is played almost entirely underwater. Or if you like being scared, play it anyway. It's terrifying, beautiful, fun, and everything a game should be times 10. My only quibble is that the world is so big I have a tendency to get lost. On the other hand, I have a terrible sense of direction, so that might not be the case for everyone.
