    A disappointment in almost every way. The game itself is not bad, it´s just so mediocre in comparison to the first one. But let me tell you about the improvements in BZ:

But let me tell you about the improvements in BZ:

    The positive:

    GRAPHICS: Wow, this game looks good!!!

    BIOMES (well, at least a few of them): In the very beginning of the game you´ll soon stumble upon the twisty bridges. This is one of my favorite biomes of both games and it shines with its design and its alien looks.

    BASE BUILDING: the biggest improvement here is the addition of the large room. Oh boy, was I excited when I found it and amazed when I build it, because of so much room I had to play with.

    The negative:

    BIOMES: While most of them are nicely designed, they feel so "meh" compared to the first subnautica. The wonder (or terror) you felt in the first game when discovering new locations is totally gone in BZ. I thought about it, but really don´t know why many of them just feel boring. But let me tell you something about boring.... the land biome.... wow.... it´s huge, it´s white and 99% of the time you have a snow storm and can´t see more than 5 meters. There are POI´s, but so few that it just feels empty... after an hour there, I felt like I was wasting my time ( and I spent many hours there, because I thought "there must be more here" ... but "spoiler" - there isn´t)... I never had that feeling in the first Subanutica.
    And who thought that it was a good idea to make a large land biome, where you get stuck on every rock, as the character can´t make a jump an inch high?

    FAUNA: Mostly reskinned, but does not feel as dangerous as in the first part. The only time I was scared and amazed was when I encountered the ice worm - it´s so well designed and it sounds so terrifying, that suddenly all other creatures seem unpolished.

    VEHICLES: The devs already showed us in the first entry how much fun vehicles can be and the feeling of accomplishment you can have when building them. What happened here? The community was asking for more vehicles, but apparently that didn´t matter. The truck you get might have sounded good on paper (modular building), but just falls short to what we are used to. I remember how I often I thought "what I would give to have a Seamoth now". The biggest issue for me was the feeling, that there was no effort put in the seatruck. Originally the vehicles were so thought through in their design, that it was jaw dropping (at least for me). Being able to dock my Seamoth in the Cyclops was a brilliant idea. The Moonpool and all its functions... wow. Now I have a vehicle where I only can dock the front part in a moonpool. So, while I was used to dock and unload everything I collected, now i have to manually undock the front part, dock in the moonpool, go outside , enter "the rest" of the vehicle, get the first load of resources in my storages (and why ... WHY????.... can´t I just have one large storage???? Why so many small ones????), swim back to my base and do it all over again. WHY???? Did no one think of making a tube-like moonpool where I could dock my seatruck?
    And let´s not forget the snowfox. Let me just say, I´ve never had a worse handling in a video game....
    So, honestly, what happened here? Did the devs think that the quality of life from the first game was too much to handle for the players?

    STORY: if you want to call it that. It feels like you have parts of stories that are randomly thrown together without any purpose. So, the main plot is that your sister died and now you want to investigate what happened to her. Alterra (the bad, bad company) told you she died because of negligence. Later on you´ll find a PDA in which it is mentioned again and - as far as I know - that is it. Did I miss something?
    I know the story was changed in mid-development and I don´t know what it was. So is this a remnant of the old story???
    PDA´s now contain totally mundane information of the interactions of the science crew on the planet. Do you remember the story of the Degasi survivors? Where is the quality of such storytelling gone?
    The "other" story got interesting later on, but 5 minutes later the game ended. I remember that I thought "what? that´s it?"

    IN GENERAL: Of course we all expected a better Subnautica, or at least one of the same quality. And in some degree BZ does that, but also does so many steps backwards in so many other aspects. The wonder, the fear and the sense of accomplishment is missing here completely. I also was expecting some more "new" craftables.
    If you have never played Subnautica, then I would recommend to play BZ first and then Subnautica 1.    … Expand

    So disappointing. Half the story is literally useless, as you can skip it altogether.
    A huge part of the assets you can build are literally useless also, this game was rewritten, and you can feel it horribly. You will never feel scared or in danger. Vehicles are a downgrade, the prawn suit is rendered useless too. Atmosphere is way below the first one and the map is way smaller.

Below Zero fails miserably to recreate some of the key components that made the original Subnautica great, and also fails miserably to achieve the things they were supposed to innovate on to compensate this change. I will try to ilustrate why even though there are some great 1 hr. + reviews on YouTube that explain this.

    Map: The map is a lot smaller and less deep that the original, and has biomes packed together, even vertically in some cases. This doesn't seem very realistic since you have a lot of biomes a few meters appart and more importantly it makes you loose the feeling of being on "open ocean"; you can see the limits of your enviroment almost all the time, which are also clearly iluminated as opposed to the deep dark sea on the original. You never wonder if there's a scary creature ready to get you since you always have clear visibility of your surroundings.

    Terror: there is literally NO TERROR in this game. Leaviathans are a sad joke and there are only squid sharks in every single biome, which is practically the only fauna you will practically see in the game. And they don't do absolutely nothing. You will very soon find that you are invincible with the defense upgrade of the Sea Truck. Late game leviathan? No problem, it will do 10 damage and run away. The PDA even tells you of the presence of them which takes away any fear of anticipation.

    Story: You basically have two story lines: finding what happened to the main character's sister and helping an architect to rebuild his body. None of them make absolutely any sense once you pay attention to it. The developers were supposed to compensate the lack of terror and map design in BZ with a great story, which aside from being very generic, it's full of plotholes that don't make any sense at all. You also are introduced to another survivor named Margaret, which you of course expect to develop over time and form a relationship which, but it turns out you only see her again twice in the game for a grand total of 5 mins on screen. The writing seems extremely lazy I couldn't even believe it. We lost all the greatness of the original Subnautica for this "great storyline".

    Land gameplay: it was just okay. Nothing special, and very buggy. I did not get any damage from either the land creatures and land leviathans since using the snow vehicle makes their behaviour so buggy they can't even hit you once. Ridiculous.

    Overall this game feels very bland, lazy, and definetly nothing special like the first one. The most worrying part is that after playing BZ, it really makes me wonder if the developers just stumbled upon the greatness of the original Subnautica by random chance. They really screwed everything they could screw in BZ which does not deliver anything other than Sea Monkeys as a replacement for the Cuddlefish. This is not just a "different game but equally good". It's just and OK 5/10, which is trash compared to the original Subnautica.    … Expand

    The original Subnautica was really special to me and had great world design, an interesting story line that gave many moments of surprise, and there were reasons to have multiple bases and generally have interest at almost every type of biome.

I paid for Subnautica: Below Zero the moment it was available for early access because of how well they made that game! After that... I patiently waited for the release of Below Zero while avoiding any spoilers. Even with all that preparation for success... Below Zero really didn't have anything unexpected or surprising for me.

    This sequel is a lot more like an expansion. It's worth playing with that in mind. You do get a chance to start from scratch, explore some new territory, collect resources, and build. In other ways, it falls short in everything the first game did so well. I was particularly disappointed in the extremely predictable story line and it's lackluster endings. I made one base and never felt a need or desire to make more. New tech was cool to add, but I was already bored with the world and had nothing left to explore by the time I was able to craft most of it. They really could have taken the opportunity to go a bit further with scale and the story line but it feels like they just didn't spend much time even thinking about that.

    Hope the best for this dev team in the future and I hope they find ways to not only match the success of the first game, but introduce some more layers of greatness! I'll certainly keep giving them a shot!    … Expand

    TLDR: Below Zero is still a good game in a vacuum, but it pales when compared to its bigger, meaner and overall much better prequel.

    The original Subnautica was more of an experience than even a game. It felt like I was actually exploring an alien world that was constantly trying to kill me, while my jaw dropped after finding a massive cave for which I did not have enough equipment.

    The original Subnautica was more of an experience than even a game. It felt like I was actually exploring an alien world that was constantly trying to kill me, while my jaw dropped after finding a massive cave for which I did not have enough equipment.

    Below Zero, on the other hand, is not that. But before ranting, note that it is still very good and definitely better than most games. It has beautiful and distinctive areas, a simple yet engaging story, a surprisingly alive world and satisfying exploration. The voice acting is also good to really good, albeit some characters feel lacking (I'm looking at you Emmanuel). And even if I'm not going to be very forgiving, it still hooked me so much I finished within a couple of weeks.

    But here comes the problem: It's a terrible sequel, as they changed little and what they did change was for the worse. The list is at the end of the review, but it can be summarized as "trying to be what it isn't". It is not a linear game. It does not have many, engaging characters. It is not designed to be on land. It is Subnautica, a marine exploration game in which the world both challenges you and tells you a story. BZ is trying not to be that and, to me, it seems it failed while trying.

    LIST OF PROBLEMATIC CHANGES:
    - MAP: Its map is smaller in both depth and surface, with each biome being visually appealing but with little incentive to actually stop in them.
    - LINEARITY: The story is now much more linear and omni-present, removing the charm of exploring areas at your own pace and putting it together like a puzzle. Linearity is not suitable for this kind of exploration game: for example, even after a key character "left my side", I could still hear him in dialogues as if he never left. This was because I did things in a different order as the devs may have expected, but that is bound to happen in Subnautica!
    - STORY: The focus of the story shifted from the world itself to a bunch of characters. This can work, but I found it less engaging as the player explores the world itself. For instance, in the original they talked about an ancient lab. Later on, when you found its ruins you felt like a detective, putting together the events that led to its destruction, what its original purpose was, what each room was, etc. This does not happen nearly as much in BZ, as locations take a back-seat compared to what the characters did and felt.
    - DIFFICULTY: The challenge has been greatly toned down. I never felt feer for my life (and my equipment), as there are only a couple of threats that become powerless very early on. In a "survival" game, this made the world much less engaging.
    - VEHICLES: The "seatruck" replaces both the seamoth (first vehicle) and the cyclops (last vehicle), while at the same time being worse than either. The seamoth felt agile but vulnerable at deeper levels, but the cyclops was a basically a moveable base, although larger and hard to get. This balance felt amazing, having to weigh risks and rewards and giving a real feeling of progression. The seatruck on the other hand is extremely easy to get and surprisingly sturdy, removing risk-reward compromises and mid and late games incentives.
    - THE BLOODY LAND: The game focuses on land biomes way more than it should. All movements feel "clanky" and exploration is tedious since you move slower and it's harder to traverse vertically. Also, the weather is constantly changing and getting foggy, which is annoying when you're trying to find the next place required to advance the story.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is good. I would have given it a better note if it was the first one. However, it is the sequel, and poorer than the first one.

    On the positive side, we have to speak about what we like in subnautica: the gameplay, the exploration, fauna and flora. It's nearly the same than the previous game, but it was already very good.
    The new map is interesting, even if smaller than the first one. Biomes are better designed than Sub' but they are far simpler. We still have the same excitation when going deeper and deeper and acquiring new elements.
    The story is fun, even if it could have deserved to be longer and richer.

    On the negative side, the game is far simpler than the first one. The new vehicle, the Aquatruck, kills the game IMO. We have it from the near beginning, and we can go down to the bottom of the ocean with it. In Sub', we had to choose. Seamoth for small caves, or Cyclops for bigger explorations, but it was a journey. In BZ, the aquatruck will easily do everything you need.
    Prawn suit? Didn't even craft it as all materials can be collected without mining and close to the Aquatruck.

    The level design of biomes is also simpler. Forget about lava zone/lava castle, you will have here 1 biome for the endgame, and you will go there probably twice. that's it.

    As for the base crafting, there is not much more than we used to have. Immersion chamber is not useful.

    In the end, the game takes the best from the first one, but simplifies it.
    It stays a good game, I had fun with it, but we have to say it's just an extension to Sub'. Not a fresh new game.    … Expand

Most of the content is above 400meters with minor exceptions in the endgame. The story and music was weaker in my opinion, despite them adding a meetable NPC and voice acting. I couldn't connect with the MC at all and unfortunately their decision to move from a neutral character that the player feels represents himself to a predetermined character meant I didn't experience any horror at all this time around. You have the same enemies with the same AI, doing the same thing, except they are reskinned. Caves are much smaller and you constantly bump into things. Seatruck is a **** seamoth that gets stuck everywhere. Overall I enjoyed the core gameplay loop that was already established and proven to work in Subnautica. The other stuff was passable at best. I just didn't feel anything this time around, the epicness of the soundtrack of the 1st was missing, the sheer horror from the unknown was missing (because everything was re-used there is no "unknown"), the stories didn't get tied up but are rather left to interpretation.

    That being said the core gameplay is still good, so 6/10 for me. It's fine but could have been done a lot better. I'd think of it more like an expansion though.    … Expand

    Прошёл за 14 часов, использовал трейнер после 9-10ти часов

    Из положительного нового:
    - анимации новые
    - новые звуки
    - суша играет более значимую роль
    - новые механики
    - русская озвучка есть теперь (чем например маленькая инди студия Microsoft не может похвастаться)
    - теперь меня не заебало читать тонны текстов, можно было спокойно слушать

    То что осталось таким же хорошим как в первой части:
    - саундтрек правда по личным ощущениям проседает на бала 2 гдет
    - всё такие же красивые виды

    Из минусов:
    - мини минус, есть предметов 5 которые ты скрафтишь 1 раз и больше никогда ими не воспользуешься
    - озвучка хромает, местами прям кринж
    - появилось много диалогов, которые по мне прям лишние, ну рил какая то хуйня в воздух, по типу "о я скрафтила сканер ахуенная и незаменимая вещь " почти буквально
    - кринжовые и странные диалоги между тобой и новым персонажем(в этот раз ты не один развитый объект на этой части планеты)
    - очень много локаций, местами забываешь что где находиться или заёбываешься бегать туда обратно
    - ебучая метель
    - я совершенно заебался бегать по суше в метель ебучую искать место по нарисованной блять карте с не особо соблюдёнными пропорциями блять (ну реально где то час проебал)
    - опять суша, но меня заебали подземные(подлёдовые) черви которые нахуй каждую секунду вылезают из земли, и даже ап на наземный транспорт что бы режи вылезали не работает как будто
    - постепенно перехожу к самому важному, сюжет хромает сильно достаточно, не чувствую какой то завершенности от него что ли и красоты, идут как бы 3 сюжетные линии сразу, можно сказать, завершена ток одна и то она такая, мдеееее
    - 30 долларов??? 30 (столько же стоила первая часть) за те же самые модельки много где и за более плохой сюжет + в 2 раза меньше игрового времени ???

    Итог:
    Дизайн и красота картинки - 10

    Subnatica: Below Zero is an excellent survival game, being equally beautiful and terrifying. The narrative is strong but can feel out of place at times.

    If you played the original part and you enjoyed it, Below Zero is a good choice. For those who once had enough, there is probably no need to play again. The sequel takes the best from the original game and adds something new.

    The world of Below Zero is much smaller than its predecessor’s, but it is still an absolutely brilliant survival game that tells an interesting story set in a fascinating environment. Additionally, it is more friendly towards less experienced players, and managed to get rid of some technical issues that affected the original Subnautica. [08/2021, p.78]
