Comment on Subnautica 2 Early Access Gameplay Trailer

Well, on the one hand, that just looks like a graphics upgrade from the first game. On the other hand, you wouldn’t expect the EA trailer to give too much away, there’s no evidence of the snowfox or the spy pengling in it, and the original is one of the finest games ever made so why mess? So I’m thinking that’s mostly positive. Will need to go and reinstall the original now I’ve seen this, too.
Snowfox and spy pengling were in Below Zero and worked because there were ice shelves that acted as landmasses in that title. Doubt they will make a reappearance in this one. Especially the spy pengling, it felt very gimmicky.
Though, the trailer did look like it teased new traversal tools and personal subs.

Good. The first game was amazing.
If all they’ve done is give it a graphics update and a fresh map, I’ll be happy as a clam. All I could have ever asked for.
Spy Pengling was a little bit annoying to use, but no big deal. Kind of entertaining with the voice lines, maybe.
The Snowfox is entirely optional, lol. And, honestly, it sucks. You can explore all the Snowfox areas far more safely and effectively with a prawn suit instead. Reject Snowfox, return to Prawn. It makes that part of the game so much better.
