In order to carry this out, Robin combs the planet for alien installations and artifacts to find the necessary components and materials. Angry at Al-An for intruding into her mind, Robin agrees to help it construct a new body for it to transfer into. The alien introduces itself as Al-An and forcibly downloads itself into Robin's brain just as the sanctuary's power runs out. Shortly after landing, Robin picks up a distress signal and goes to investigate it, discovering an alien sanctuary containing the digitized consciousness of a living precursor. During the past year, Alterra had built a number of research bases on the planet but had recently withdrawn all of its personnel, giving Robin an opportunity to land on the planet. Two years after the events of the original game, scientist Robin Ayou smuggles herself onto planet 4546B in order to investigate the circumstances of her sister Samantha's death, which Alterra claims was a result of "employee negligence". They do not need an energy source and cannot be damaged (unless the player damages them intentionally). Additionally, the submersibles, a Seaglide, mobile vehicle bay, knife, flashlight, habitat builder, scanner and a propulsion cannon are provided.


In addition, the game introduces new gadgets like the Flashlight Helmet, the Mineral Detector, and the Booster Tank. There is a day-night cycle which affects visibility and dynamic weather which further affects visibility, such as wind, snow, fog, and hail. There are more explorable structures to find both above ground and underwater which serve both as key locations for the story, but also for blueprints that the player can find for crafting. The game primarily takes place underwater, but unlike its predecessor, there are significant land-based areas to explore in the north of the game's world. Players collect resources, construct tools, build bases and submersibles, and can interact with the planet's wildlife. Like its predecessor, the player's goal is to explore the environments and survive in an alien environment while also completing objectives to advance the game's plot. The player controls a scientist who arrives on planet 4546B in search for clues about the research team that vanished there. Heck I may go play it now after typing this out.Subnautica: Below Zero is a survival adventure game set in an open world environment and played from a first-person perspective.


If you have not watched NeebsGaming on Sub, you should as they were and are the reason my daughter and I play it. The however the only play through I watched was Neebs gaming who ended up getting to be a part of the actual game. Sub is one of the few games in which I go back to and just start a new game and try something different like where and how large I build my bases, to how fast can I get done. I've watched so many play through videos of the original I don't think it's worth buying that one cause I've already seen everything and I didn't want the same thing to happen with Below Zero because it looks so cool and I really want to play it! It is sooo worth playing. I actually haven't watched any videos for Below Zero for that exact reason. Originally posted by Temerairemco:If you wait, you could wait and see if maybe you like it and maybe if I could give you some advice, stop watching videos, they may seem exciting and interesting now, but when you start playing yourself, you'll find that there really isn't anything to explore, you'll already know a lot about the story and where everything is and all that, that's one thing I regret, the fact that I watched a bunch of people playing it before I actually played it.
