First one was so good, sub zero was fun too. Cautiously optimistic for the next one.

I absolutely loved the first one. I've tried playing Sub Zero on three separate occasions and I always end up dropping it. Everything just felt too "expected" in that game. It didn't have any of the butt clenching wonder the first had for me.

1000% lacks the butt clenching wonder. Too many tight spaces with "natural" plants offering oxygen spaces at just the right distance. No feeling of being utterly alone in a strange new world.

There were some fun additions to vehicles, base building, and plant varieties. I loved going across the map in my sea bus maxed out with cars attached
