    Yeah, but it’s complicated like an ant colony–incredibly complex and nuanced, but tiny, inconsequential, and easy to ignore.

    I got one whiff of that dumpster fire and thought, “You know what? I’m going to check out some of the near-infinite other entertainment options available to me in the Information Age and give that whole thing a miss.” I’m sure a significant portion of other people interested in the game came to a similar conclusion, which can’t be ideal for their sales goals.

            I just meant that there’s so many excellent games, old and new, everywhere you look, that it is easy to just walk past ones that seemed like they have anything even remotely distasteful about them.

              I hope I’m wrong, but Subnautica really stands alone in genre all to itself.

              All the other survival games I’ve played have been annoying or too violent… And I really like the underwater setting.

              So it’s really not true that there are other games that compare to Subnautica 1 and 2. Unless there are – I am open to recommendations.
