Subnautica does not have this or, if they do, it is not made clear to the player at all. Now, I am not saying this to the extent of my taste, because even most open world games have some tutorials for certain aspects. There is absolutely no direction whatsoever. However, there is never good without the bad and this review would be amiss if it did not mention the games biggest flaw. I also appreciate the oxygen, low food, and low water warnings, which can help new players focus on other things without being worried about spontaneously dying because they aren’t used to all the meters yet. While I prefer more direction, in a way, it is nice that they let you craft and build things at relatively your own pace. The menus are easy to figure out and scroll through, having a smooth and sleek feel. ![]() The crafting system is also pretty satisfying. In a bind, you can just grab a fish and eat it raw, some of the same fish offering sources of water if you use your crafting station. Can I get a high five? As far as game mechanics go, I love the fact that you can easily find quick sources of food and water in your environment rather than the game making it needlessly hard. I managed to swim fine at night despite this fear and apparently was braver than my partner about it. The further I go and the more things I interact with, the more I push past my fears, which is highly satisfying. But even I can’t deny that this makes the setting of Subnautica, trapped in the middle of an ocean filled with aliens (meaning you have little relief), even more appealing and intriguing. ![]() I despise the way some fish look and those big, long creepy things that lurk in the depths send shivers down my spine and give me nightmares. Now, I have a phobia when it comes to the ocean, though more specifically the deep ends. Subnautica, in my opinion, is an undeniably beautiful game with inventive and wonderful creature designs.
