Subnautica takes place in the fictional Planet 4546B, which is almost completely covered in water. Aurora crash landed on the planet, luckily on a guyot (namely the Crater) that houses a variety of miniature ecosystems. Each of these biomes contains its distinctive set of flora and fauna to discover and resources to harvest. More specifically, ranging from the busy coral reefs of the Safe Shallows to the deadly red-and-white forests of the Blood Kelp Zones and from the hypnotizing Jellyshroom Cave to the blazing Lava Lakes, the Crater’s biomes are diverse, unforgettably original and awe-inspiring. In addition, being an outstanding base-building game, Subnautica allows the creation of compartmentalized habitats, progressively flourishing into true palaces. Eventually, the protagonist may also explore Aurora’s crash site and other abandoned bases and facilities.

Despite the plethora of data downloads that can be found among the wrecks, the protagonist doesn’t encounter any other survivors, which results in an even more horrifying atmosphere. The player is forced to explore the ocean, as well as encouraged to seek companion among the native fauna (or flora). From a biological perspective, Subnautica’s biodiversity is impressive and its lifeforms are carefully designed to reflect their evolutionary adaptions. Planet 4546B is a breathing and breathtaking world, where one can witness the organisms’ complex relationships as they develop.

🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴

The game’s multidimensional narrative unravels in accordance with the player’s pace of exploring, as it takes place in a non-linear, open-world environment filled with wonders and threats to discover. The main story line has a classic 3-act structure (setup, confrontation, resolution) and it includes several side stories. Spoilers aside, discovering the history of Planet 4546B is truly fascinating and intriguing. Notably, the player is equipped with a PDA, a multipurpose device which —among others— contains a data bank aimed at documenting their journey’s logs.

Planet 4546B’s beauty is colorful, vibrant and vivid, the wild biomes are refreshing and visually stunning… even the intruding technological advancements grace upon this aquatic paradise.

🔴⭕⭕

Subnautica’s “cut-scenes” are disappointingly few, short and seamlessly integrated into the gameplay.

🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴

Being an established sci-fi-themed title, Subnautica’s futuristic soundtrack contains songs that eerily etch the mystery and the horror of the unknown and of what lurks within it, the curiosity of exploration and the thrill of discovery deep into one’s soul. During their staying on Planet 4546B, the player is accompanied by electronic music that stimulates the feelings of loneliness and homesickness, yet strengthens and replenishes their hope and will for survival.

🔴🔴🔴🔴

The game’s audio successfully vitalizes its creatures, rendering them acoustically identifiable, as well as either cuter or more horrifying. All in all, it contributes to the ambience by creating the ultimate subaquatic experience.

🔴🔴🔴

Despite the lack of NPCs, the player may collect voice logs and come across radio messages, which include immersive performances. On the other hand, the player is always accompanied by the voice of his trustful PDA’s AI (and occasionally the ones of his vehicles’ AIs). Finally, the telepathic contact with the Sea Emperor Leviathan is mesmerizing.

There are 4 modes (Survival, Freedom, Hardcore, Creative) with different restrictions on gameplay. They define the requirements for survival (as far as the player’s needs are concerned) and the number of available lives.

🔴⭕⭕

The game has a standard level of difficulty (depending on the chosen mode) and requires hours of farming for resources. The player is advised to read the PDA’s guides and tutorials.

In order to survive the player must keep their health above 0 while covering their basic needs for oxygen, food & water by any means necessary. In the meantime, they’re called to avoid radiation and extreme temperatures, as well as defend themselves against any dangerous life forms. The quest for survival is fortunately facilitated by a complex crafting system that provides the player with cutting-edge equipment, tools, vehicles, Seabases etc. Furthermore, base-building feels addictive, as it involves the full customization of interiors.

🔴🔴🔴⭕⭕

The limiting 5-slotted toolbar in combination with the lack of hotkeys for essential items (such as the Scanner and the Seaglide) forces the player to periodically spam the PDA in order to access unbound items in the storage and perform basic functions (heal, eat, drink etc), which is inconvenient and frustrating, especially when it’s a matter of life and death. Sooner or later, the player gets used to driving the game’s vehicles and can navigate their way around with ease, but till then there’s plenty of bumping to put up with.

🔴🔴🔴🔴⭕

Having spent 3+ years in Steam’s Early Access, Subnautica is almost bug-free. There are occurrences of glitching AI now and then (e.g. models harmlessly passing through the player’s base), but since the game’s release I haven’t encountered any game-breaking bugs.

Mostly set in fictional areas, suggestively located in the post-apocalyptic, zombie-infested U.S.A., Left 4 Dead 2 features a great variation of beautiful locations, including a hotel, a mall, an amusement park, a stadium, highways, swamps and isolated villages, a mansion, a sugarcane mill, a gas station, cities and more.

🔴🔴⭕⭕⭕

Left 4 Dead 2 introduces a new cast of Survivors, including Nick, Rochelle, Coach and Ellis, sticking to the series theme number, as well as the gender ratio of its predecessor. Unfortunately, apart from the adventurous stories that are hillariously narrated by Ellis, there is nothing else worth mentioning about the whole group, as the Survivors are overly restrained by their repetitive voice commands. Unlike Left 4 Dead which manages to balance this flaw by additionally realeasing an online comic[www.l4d.com] with intriguing new info about its characters, Left 4 Dead 2 fails to attract the audience's attention towards the new Survivors. Thus, they are bound to seem indifferently mysterious, if not completely impersonal and boring.

🔴🔴⭕⭕⭕

Along with its predecessor, Left 4 Dead 2 follows the same basic, trite concept: a small group of random Survivors who share no history fight for survival in a world world full of zombie-like beings, known as the Infected. A classic scenario ends up being completely vapid and unchallenging, as the linear levels and the simplified objectives both add up nothing of interest to the game's plot and also restrict the player's contribution to just killing zombies, activating generators and other machinery and calling for help.

For sure the graphic quality of Left 4 Dead 2 is beyond satisfying, as far as the standards of its year of realease are concerned. The areas, the characters, the objects, all of them seem detailed and realistic, while the bloodbath that follows the Survivors' encounters with the Infected is always full of gore.

🔴🔴🔴

The introduction video is very good.

🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴

It is well-known that Valve is used to providing its audience with high-quality game soundtracks and of course Left 4 Dead 2 is no exception; on the contrary, music is a big part of the game's experience, as it stimulates the desired emotions by creating an atmosphere full of suspense and agony. Notably, each Campaign is accompanied by its very own theme soundtrack, which is basically an adapted (to-the-style-of-each-Campaign) version of the original soundtrack. Also, Midnight Riders are here! A single exclamatory mark cannot compress the awesomeness of this hard rock band, created by Valve for the purposes of the series; a famous group that is widely-advertised in the whole game and whose songs are playable in the in-game jukeboxes; they even have their own albums, concerts, merchandise and website[www.midnight-riders.com].

🔴🔴🔴🔴

Going on, when it comes to in-game audio and sound effects Valve proves to be, once again, an expert creator, capable of stimulating the player's hearing, enhancing the whole experience acoustically.

🔴🔴🔴

Keeping in mind the very few human characters encountered in the game, one can mainly focus on the 4 main Survivors, whose voice acting is professionally good.
Fun fact: Chad L. Coleman, Coach's voice actor, played as Tyreese in AMC's The Walking Dead.

The map and mode variaton is remarkable, as there are both Single-player and Multi-player game modes that include Campaign, Survival, Versus, Realism, Scavenge, Mutations and more.

🔴🔴🔴

Left 4 Dead 2 has to offer the following free “DLC”:

• The Passing;
  
• The Sacrifice, with No Mercy;
  
• and Cold Stream, with the rest of the original Campaigns;

which cumulatively result in making available most of Left 4 Dead's content.

The mechanics are very simple, yet exciting. As a result of the availability of many different types of guns (including firearms, SMGs, shotguns, rifles etc), melee weapons (ranging from a katana to a chainsaw and from a guitar to a freakin' frying pan), grenades and other equipment, the player can choose whether to shoot, cut, decapitate or burn the Infected.

🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴

Valve's set of easy-to-learn, player-friendly controls is a typical element shared among its games, including Left 4 Dead 2 apparently.

🔴🔴🔴🔴⭕

Minor bugs are common phenomena in the Left 4 Dead 2 universe, yet the game runs smoothly in general.
