Subnautica (PS5)

Continuing my quest to play every single game about scuba diving... Man, I dunno about this one. I liked a lot of it, but it also really proves that crafting/building games are just not for me. This game took me 26 hours to beat and it's not like the main quest is particularly involved, by itself. There's just a lot of busywork with collecting resources and trying to manage the game's awful inventory and building systems.

Everything is too slow, the building and power generation systems make zero sense, the game is super glitchy (I ran into enemies and walls that didn't actually exist, fish that followed me onto dry land where they flew around, building pieces that can't be rotated, and more), and there's no map, presumably just to make you suffer. Even Minecraft gives you a (shitty, shitty) map! If I was playing on PC I would absolutely have used console commands/mods to just give myself infinite resources and teleportation around the 10 hour mark, but oh well.

With that being said, when you're actually playing the game instead of doing chores it's really fun! I just don't think I'll be coming back to this one anytime soon. For my sensibilities I think I'd be better off just replaying ABZU.
