I really, really want to know what happened behind the scenes that made this game fumble so hard. How do you go through such insane story changes from the early access?
So a question I have is, what happened to the rest of the Altera people? Is it actually explained why they just arent on the planet anymore?
Im greatly looking forward to your fancy stuff you got in the works!
im curious if you'd define them as Video Essays or not since thats what i'v seen them being called around youtube, regardless they're worth waiting for 😀

Bye Subnautica fan a I'll be leaving your channel sorry it's not your fault
17:10 Going back and watching that questline wrap up. Your character literally does this narration speech explaining why she considers this to be meaningful to her. Like she's literally trying to explain to the player that it's actually a good ending to the plotline and not anti-climactic.
The other part of this plotline "How did my sister die" starts with a letter saying "Yeah, she died in an accident" and ends with the grand discovery that "she died in an accident" Your character, when discovering the necklace and that it was a cave in, even says something akin to "surely that can't be how she died" and it's left like that as if you'll discover that something else caused her death
I found a member of the same species that you made in my Subnautica world
Outpost zero location is terrible, I have yet to see anyone that go the right order and find it before.
I'm kinda sad that there won't be too much gameplay vids, but the commentary type videos feels like a step in the right direction. Also I recently started playing below zero for my self and it's pretty fun and the ice worm is not as bad anymore. I really hope you'll be able to make a gameplay video on the next subnautica game that has been confirmed to be coming, I hope it will be at least next year. I may be a newcomer to the channel but I'll make sure to drop by the twitch streamer and donate some things to help you out. I'll do my best to support you, although I did recently finish college and am moving in to my first house. Anyway cya in the next vid, Seth!
Robin at the start: “I’ll find my way back”
This episode reveals, Robin lied as naturally as she breathed.
When I Played Below Zero And Got To The End but Sadly I Couldnt Just Cut The Game File Had To Wait For The Devs To Fix The End Btw The Save Was On Switch
Subnautica was simple and elegant in its story – while some of the items on the world were fantastical, the story itself made sense – a virus research team lost control of a killer virus and the planet is quarantined because of it – SIMPLE.
Subnautica Below Zero – well, we've all seen what happens when an original story / game / movie is so very good – the sequels rarely live up. The devs – yeah, they had issues in development with people leaving and the story changing, etc, but what's important is the end product, and what happened to it. The devs lost sight of simple and elegant, and I would agree that having the two story lines weakens the entire experience. Had this game NOT been a sequel to such a beloved game – it would likely be seen in a much better light, but because it IS a sequel, we have to look at what it is and compare and contrast it with the original – and it fails in comparison. It suffers for being a sequel. The devs tried too hard – felt compelled to do MORE when in all actuality they would have been far better served had they continued in much the same fashion as the original – simple and elegant.
By itself, Below Zero is….fine, but how many people play or watch it with no exposure to the original? It's a rare sequel that lives up to a kick ass origin story, and sadly, IMO, Below Zero just doesn't live up.
Loved your Subnautica series!
I think you would definitely enjoy elden ring because of the large open world it has.
Nevertheless your content is always entertaining
The original early access story had more potential. In the original the Altera corruption began unfolding as you progressed putting you and your sister in danger as you were left behind and separated from your sister. There was an outbreak on the space station where your sister was posted and you had to stop Altera from discovering Al-An while trying to save your sister in orbit from the ground. There was more character dynamic between major characters because you didn't know who to trust but also didn't want to keep secrets.
Hey there, I just saw your Subnautica review, and I thought I'd recommend Outer Wilds. It gave me a similar feeling of wonder that Subnautica gave, and it's a really good game to play if you know nothing about it. It truly is one of my favourite games, and I can't recommend it enough.
Subnautica Below Zero is broken
I can't die
I can't use tools
I can't interact with anything
I can't play voiceligs
I can't be eaten by chelicerate
I can't be eaten by shadow leviathan
If you wonder it is version july-2022 48475
I can agree so much with the final thoughts.
I like how he ends the stream 20 mins early but the video is 40 minutes late
If I had a nickel for every time the shadow leviathan attacked a prawn suit while the player was inside the body fabricating alien thing, I would have 2, which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice
Can i get a link for outro music?
My 2 issues with BZ:
1. There aren’t a lot of good “main base” locations. Building bases is one of my favorite parts of the first game. But BZ has very few open, flat areas of relative safety. You need a lot of space, and you need at least one flat area for your moonpool that you can drive into and jump a prawn into. Sure, you can build mini bases everywhere, but a big home? It’s very limiting.
2. The upgrade progression has you bouncing all over the map. Subnautica had an elegant progression of survivability and diving ability, moving outward from the center. But in BZ, I found myself running back and forth gathering blueprints and materials, returning to biomes over and over. And the Propulsion Cannon parts, in the sea monkey caves? Jeez, those are hidden in the hardest places to find!
Architects: We built this facility to remain standing and functional for thousands for years, it will make a perfect shelter for your vehicle from the giant sea monster nearby
Seth: Nah I'm good lol
Edit: Just got to this point in my own playthrough, seems you can't bring it inside. I am a derp.
Pro tip if you don’t know if you are wanting to go and swim for more than 75 secs with a standard tank grab two and have both filled with air and when one runs out switch to the other one. Trust me it works in below zero and probably in Subnautica
Its very wierd, becuz i've been playn below zero on my ps4 for months and i've NEVER EVER had a issue with it
To be fair the map was much smaller in this game so it needed to be busier
I'm late to comment but here are my thoughts on the Sam/Kharaa storyline: It has so very many plot holes. It doesn't really make sense either. Like, the idea is great. They find a Leviathan by chance that happens to still be infected because it hasn't been able to swim around in the water that now has the cure floating around in it. Big evil cooperation does risky tests to exploit this extremely dangerous bacterium because money. One of the employees thinks it's concerning. Said employee dies in an "accident" after voicing her concerns to several people.
Up until this point. Awesome set up. A lot of potential.
But then. Turns out the Leviathan can be cured easily despite being frozen. I'm no biologist but… for this to work wouldn't the enzyme have to move through its blood stream? Which… it can't because there's no blood flowing through it and it's most likely dead anyway. But you inject it with the enzyme and it instantly cures it despite having no ways of moving the cure through its /massive/ body.
Sam is described as very buttoned up and loyal to Alterra but this situation gets her so paranoid that she is willing to blow things up? Why didn't she just secretly inject the cure while no one was looking? Why was that plan B? That seems like it should be plan A. Yet plan A was blowing the place up. Which would have only slowed things down anyway. The bacteria is still there. And they have the machinery to just get in there again since they know exactly where the Leviathan is located.
Evidently, this was way too dangerous since she ended up killing herself /and/ someone else. A very out of character thing for her to do. I also don't understand the point of her potential love storyline. Feels like a lot was removed there.
Also… where is everyone? As far as I know only Sam and Parvan died. Lil seems to have returned to Earth but she was already shoved aside anyway so it makes sense for her to have left. But what about everyone else? Did they die too? How? How come no one came if they died to continue the research? They saw such great potential in this find yet they just let the Leviathan… be? Dug up, easily accessible for other lifeforms while it's covered in a deadly and highly infections disease? Uhhhh??

This was a wild ride, Seth, and I'm so glad I watched it. I honestly kinda agree with your feelings on Below Zero, and though i'm on my second playthrough now, i'm remembering why i love the first one more. It was just an absolute masterpiece. I loved the way you described them both in relation to their cover art. Perfect explanation.
That being said, I found my way to your channel because of Subnautica, and I'm pretty happy I did. you're an absolute treasure of a human, and your content is nothing short of delightful. I personally, am glad you're finding an opportunity for channel growth and i wish you the best in your endeavors! I look forward to your next video!
So satisfying watching you getting out of there! 😍 Well done!
