![]() The music is this game is really good as well. It really helps in managing your inventory and letting go or storing any of your unwanted items. Allowing you to take note of which you need to find and how much you will be needing. A good feature of this game is that it allows you to pin the recipes of any of the craftable items. Because the fun is in the discovery and the more you find, the more capable your character can become. If you don’t have the patience to explore and hoard all the items you can find then you will get nowhere in this game. Not knowing that I could have crafted a better oxygen tank to make me breathe longer. I died several times trying to get to deeper parts of the ocean even though I just had little oxygen to deal with. Being able to become stronger and more well equipped means that you get to access parts of the game that you normally wouldn’t be able to get to at the beginning. And I would think that’s where the fun is. Crafting can really eat up your time in a game like this. But once you get the hang of it and you start to unlock several crafting options, you start getting this momentum and pick up the pace of the game. And with little progress, it can feel a little bit disappointing. Subnautica Below Zero, to me, feels like a slow burn because at the beginning, you hardly know what to do. ![]() And some buttons even seem to be mapped to the same action which can get confusing in the long run. ![]() And there doesn’t seem a way to map it differently either. Trying to delete pictures you took doesn’t seem to work either. I was expecting to run if you hold the 元 button when you’re walking but I don’t know why it’s not working. Like the running button doesn’t seem to function like it should. However, I feel like some of them were not mapped correctly. The controls are pretty straightforward as you can toggle an onscreen hint as to which buttons to press when you want to do something. There are also some pesky sea monsters that steals your on-hand tools so it’s best to steer clear of them. You would also have to watch out for dangerous sea life as some could eat you whole if you’re not careful. Some resources can be harder to harvest because some of them involve luck or getting deeper into other locations. You can just pick up anything along the way but then you are also limited by your storage space. Gathering resources can either be easy or tedious depending on how you want to approach it. But this can also be a bad thing for those who just wants to enjoy the story, as it really doesn’t follow a linear path towards what the end goal of the story is and you can just end up wasting your time on creating stuff and not getting anywhere. You’d have to craft items and equipment to allow you to get deeper into the game, literally. Allowing you to go wherever you want as your character permits it. And this somehow allows you to trigger different parts of the game. What’s also interesting about Subnautica Below Zero is that even though there’s a story involved, it gives you the freedom to go anywhere you like. I decided to play the game in Freedom mode. It is a welcome sight for newcomers to the genre, as not a lot of games lets you do this. ![]() I really like how the game allows you to choose how you want to play the game. And the Creative mode where all meters are disabled and it doesn’t cost any materials to craft items. Hardcore mode, where if your character dies, they no longer respawn and the save file is forever deleted. Freedom Mode which disables hunger and thirst meters. Survival mode which enables hunger and thirst meters. There are several modes that you can play the game in. You can prevent this by finding shelter inside building or going near a flower that emits heat. Standing still for so long in the open air or just walking through the land will start to lower your temperature and putting you at risk of getting hypothermia. Along with this new portion of the game, is a new element of survivability which is the temperature. ![]() Unlike the previous game, there are significant portions of the game on land which you can now explore. You decided to explore the island to find out what happened to your sister. It’s the same planet from the first game but you are dropped into a region where it’s mostly cold. The premise of the game is that your character Robin decided to go to this planet that’s surrounded by bodies of water. But is it something that you should go into if you’re not familiar with the previous game? Let’s find out. There is no doubt that if you have played Subnautica and enjoyed it, you would want to play this game. It focuses on survival underwater as the main element of the game is the sea. Subnautica Below Zero is the sequel to Subnautica which introduced us to a very interesting survival game. ![]()
