    Cute game so far, very similar to the original... heard there was a bug where your first save would hang on "please wait" forever if you took too long to save. So I saved early on and kept playing for an hour and a half. Encountered a loading bug like in the original, so I went to save and reload. And it froze on please wait, so I've lost that hour or so.

Completely unreasonable for a game that's been in early access this long, especially when it's practically the same game as the previous. If this kind of thing is happening there's no reason it shouldn't have seen release yet. Expand

    While not revolutionizing the experience of its predecessor, Subnautica: Below Zero enriches and expands the excellent playful insights of Unknown Worlds, packaging a survival with a stimulating and inspired narrative background. If you are looking for an experience focused on simulation survival, but at the same time prefer to let yourself be taken by the hand by a guided but intelligent advancement, then you just have to sink into the abyss of 4546B.

    Subnautica: Below Zero improves on its predecessor in all topics, featuring a much deeper narrative and more varied gameplay that adds new mechanics and possibilities creating an endearing experience.

    This can be a fiddly game, and certainly isn’t one for people who dislike mining or organising elaborate storage systems, but after a couple of years in Early Access this is now a refined and elegant experience, gently paced, where there is always something interesting to pursue through beautiful spaces. Voluntary isolation in the deep cold might not sound like solace after a winter of lockdowns, but Subnautica: Below Zero is cosy and moreish. Dive in, and you may be surprised how deep you end up going.
