Subnautica 2 (Early Access in 2025)

[Zarniwoop]

Long as they don't reuse the fucking indian AI voice from Below zero. I hated hearing that annoying voice everytime I was running out of oxygen. "WARNING TEN SEKUNDS OF OXIGON REMANIN".

I ain't racist of course, but god damn at least try make the voices tolerable.

I like Subnautica: Below Zero

Couldn't play Below Zero due to the fucking PDA voice. Whoever thought a woman with an Indian accent was a good idea is an idiot. "Passing 200 Meters" turns into "PARSING TWO HUNDRUD MEEDERS" and it's quite jarring to my American ears.

What kind of review doesn't even mention the new, improved Poo-in-the-loo 3000® PDA, complete with broken English that reminds you when you're PARSING 100 meters? Or the obnoxious Sea Youths that steal your bike all the time?

The seatrk has some neat stuff the Cyclops doesn't, like the ability to catch food on the go, but I prefer the ability to build shit inside it.

Saar do not redeem the oxigon.

DO NOT REDEEM!!!

But will the marine fauna also be woke?

In the first game I recall the fauna is described a single-sexed, but that also means there can be no trans/binary fish, and no fish feminism.

Hey guys, let’s put nogs in our video game. That’ll move some units.

The funny thing is, Riley from Sub1 was clearly a jogger too. In fact there was implied "y r u ghey" among the Aurora crew, but no one batted an eyelid because it was written decently, with most of that as background dressing. Humans are funny, we know when there's an agenda, and in this case it's showing up more evidently than ever.

Why the fuck are they putting so much effort into representation in this game? People play these games to immerse themselves in a oceanic world, not exploring how gay or black they are.

As I mentioned above, NO INDIAN PDA.

DEI money.

I thought the bisexual (FFM) jealousy drama felt inappropriate in a game seemingly made for children (both art style and pseudo-pacifist gameplay), but the callous attitude of the female involved certainly helped establishing the dystopian setting.

Or the devs refuse to work otherwise. None of them care about the actual game setting, obviously.

Fact check: False

You're a gayjogger strongwymbyn from outer space in Below Zero.

In the first game you're a white guy. With a PDA that speaks English.

Bro you sure about that?

What money? Is the gubmint paying them or are investors retarded enough to thing it impacts ROI in a positive way?

Last I heard this is mostly a requirement from gubmints or some (((financing instutions))) (well one that wanted to push it in some scoring affecting interest rates or something, so basically a grift) or morons within the company. It's at best financially neutral (if developers already pandered to snowflakes) but most likely actually a cost, no doubt a grift by design to siphon money away to friends in sweet babies and other parasitical consulting companies.

I agree completely. It's a reasoning but not necessarily a real reasoning. And yeah at this point I rather lean towards "activists within company push that by themselves while it's a net negative thing by now".

Cool story mod bro.

 

[jackofshadows]

Huh this is interesting. It seems that maybe those clowns changed the protagonist with the patch or something.

0-22 we see a white man (presumably from some early promo materials) but then it's a nig/pajeet all over.

They had to have patched it in. I played the game since Alpha and it was always a white guy, you could see his hands in some scenes.

Ask the devs about that not us. Why do you think they've changed protag race all of a sudden?

 

[luj1]

Niggazation complete. Regardless, I very much doubt this game will come close to the original.

The white dude was never the protagonist. He's part of the family that crash landed earlier whose audio logs you find all over the place.

The footage is originally from this story trailer:
