Sure, you could stumble across an oxygen plant, but that’s a risk. Finding the pieces of a sea glide lets you craft the vehicle, for example, so you can move faster and dive deeper before your oxygen expires. There’s crafting to be done (unless you choose Below Zero‘s creative mode) but that too pushes you deeper into the depths. You will have a slight advantage if you’ve played the original not because the territory is familiar (you’re exploring an entirely different part of the planet) but because you’ll have experienced the same cycle of exploration, resource gathering and building. This sequel has more of a story than the original Subnautica and the notion you’re seeking justice for the “accidental” death of your sister drives the plot when it needs to.
Make no mistake, exploration is Subnautica: Below Zero‘s beating heart. Sure, you might lose an item or two from your normally packed inventory, but it’s still worth that extra glimpse of the deeps. True, I wasn’t the one expiring on an alien planet but just roaming the waters of Subnautica: Below Zero is such a fulfilling experience that you won’t regret a few deaths by misadventure. That’s how a good third of my Subnautica: Below Zero aqua-treks went and I regret nothing. If at first you don’t succeed, drown, drown again.
