THE FUSE

One aspect of Subnautica 2 that has strongly stood out to me as different from the original game is just how dangerously violent so many of the alien fish are. The first Subnautica was not without its aggressive sealife, especially the colossal kind, but you also had at least a weeny little knife to wave around in self-defense. In Subnautica 2 you’ve got flares, and the more I play, the more I’m finding myself frustrated by the constant annoyance of angry fishies trying to bash into me. It seems I’m not alone, and as IGN points out, there’s a growing number of players asking for the ability to fight back.
