I'd be curious if they're going to try a different style of gameplay at all or still go for the more minor character control in smaller areas + dialogue choices. I don't mind that but I'd love something like a SOMA level of gameplay/interaction, still story focused but just enough exploration to be fun and interesting.

Development was handled by a different French group called Parallel Studio. Their previous work seems to be a bunch of VR and mobile adventure games, so it's probably not too far from the Quantic Dream interactive movie genre... but since David Cage isn't involved maybe it will not be totally awful?

Does anyone know of a way to disable the enable controller checkbox permanently? I've been playing in VR and every time I launch that gets re-checked which causes major problems trying to navigate the main menu just to be able to play. Even after unchecking it and playing back at the main menu its then rechecked so even exiting is difficult. Not impossible but a real pain.

I guess there are moments where something pops out of nowhere that gives you a jolt, but the cartoonish graphics, goofy looking fauna and relatively non lethal game design never really felt spooky tbh. Personally, it was drat scary for me at a bunch of parts, but I don't think it would have been scary in the slightest if I had played it with the sound off. The audio was such a vital part of the whole experience and was so drat scary at certain points. Like when I got to the tree cove for the first time, I was certain there was gonna be some terrifying poo poo in there just because the music was so drat scary sounding

When I was 3 or 4 I got traumatized by being stung by jellyfish in a brown water bay. I haven't entered water where I couldn't see the bottom ever since. So when I'm descending in Subnautica but can't see the floor it begins to really get to me.

It’s a definite different kind of fear impulse than most horror games.

I had my own childhood stuff, but I think just mathematically when the water is really deep below you that dramatically increases the amount of area around you where there can be threats. On land you can be secure that if you're standing on a patch of land, it's fine, but when swimming above the abyss, anything could be down there.

Story option seems weird and sort of surprised such a thing is possible. I guess I can imagine maybe just like not triggering audio but what about other world triggers? I guess you can't "finish" it without the story? So it's more like making a sandbox mode? Also that vegetarian option has me wondering if you can do a run completely passive without killing anything. Not sure how you solve very early water though...

Like you can now do creative mode with air, food/water, and damage if you like. The flip side of this patch is kinda cool too. You can now go through the whole story without worrying about death. They really need to do this in the original Subnautica too.

Wonder if you could make large animals only hostile to vehicles, and smaller predators only hostile to you on foot or small vehicles? Would like to somewhat balance my fear of reapers with wanting a bit of danger. Maybe pass on the hypnofish though.

In the first one you can book it to an island to pick up melons and don't have to kill anything for water. Not sure about BZ, but I'd be surprised if there wasn't a way to stay pacifist like that.

if you can turn off blueprints, reinforcements, and materials, can you just finish the entire game without going more than a few feet from your base?

If you have problems loading BZ now in VR go to the modding discord and get the new Qmod Manager/SML mod in #modding-news. https://discord.gg/UpWuWwq or try these links for the new files https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/578635702984507393/1019595074113376278/QModManager_BZ_Stable_4.4.4.1.zip https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/578635702984507393/1019595074549596170/SMLHelper_BZ.STABLE_2.14.1.1.zip e: Seems VRtweaks still needs to be updated Cant even click any menus, only thing that works is alt+f4 The modmaker in the Flatscreen to VR discord says they know of the update but cant get to it until this weekend.

Just go rush for those peppers. The problem with vegan mode is that it’s basically impossible for someone going into the game blind. There’s a few weird food items here and there but they’re not going to be easy to chance across and then exploit until you can sustain crops. I guess nutrient blocks buy you a little amount of early game time.

I have to say being able to modify the aggression of predators is a great feature. I've never liked how in these games anything that could possibly want to take a shot at you always wants to take a shot at you 100% of the time.
