My first time playing Subnautica! [1]

Subnautica is an underwater adventure game set on an alien ocean planet. A massive, open world full of wonder and peril!
You have crash-landed on an alien ocean world, and the only way to go is down. Subnautica's oceans range from sun drenched shallow coral reefs to treacherous deep-sea trenches, lava fields, and bio-luminescent underwater rivers. Manage your oxygen supply as you explore kelp forests, plateaus, reefs, and winding cave systems. The water teems with life: Some of it helpful, much of it harmful.

Wow, someone who actually followed the PDA and consulted the Databank for survival advice! That's so much better than stumbling around mindlessly for endless hours! Some people I think are worried about creating "interesting content," and so they don't want to read on camera, but honestly there are so many useful tips and clues in the databank, along with a lot of stuff that's just "flavor" and doesn't directly help you play the game, but fills out the lore of the setting.

[@MentalEiva]

I honestly think Databank helps not to feel so overwhelmed with everything this game offers especially in the beginning!

[@dereknolin5986]

@@MentalEiva It really does throw you into the "deep end," so to speak, with no tutorial section like many other games have. I think that's one reason youtube playthroughs of it are popular; it's fun to see all the different ways people adapt to learning the basic game mechanics and how to just stay alive in the beginning. Of course this game has a LOT more to offer as it goes on! And I personally like the sequel Below Zero just as much, if not better! Happy gaming.

[@TheKickKat]

Here. Here. Watching someone stumble around lost can be frustrating for viewers. I would much rather watch someone read the getting started info because, 1, everyone, including viewers not familiar with the game will know what is going on, and 2, it takes less time than going around in circles aimlessly, waiting for luck or divine revelation to see you through.

[@UnomagKatzen]

and some are just funny, funny

[@catwhowalksbyhimself]

@@MentalEiva A LOT of people completely miss things they are supposed to know because it's explained or hinted at in the databanks, so you are already above average.

I was gonna say! And immediately realizing that she probably should explore during daytime and leave reading/inventoring/fabricating for nighttime. People read cave sulfur and explore zero caves. And then they wonder where the hell cave sulfur is hiding... great first episode, I must say!

Not her swimming straight to the aurora at NIGHT TIME, no nothing on her inventory omg i admire the willingness. I love watching people experience Subnautica for the first time

[@edgarreoutov9517]

you've prob got like a million comments about this already but uncut subnautica gameplay where u ACTUALLY USE the databank and stuff and actually think about what you are doing is so much better then just wandering around aimlessly like most other content creators do. subbed

[@MentalEiva]

thank you! Hope you’ll enjoy the rest of the playthrough✨

[@Sc0agar4k]

I've noticed that you like to read stuff (what is very handy here), so i suggest in Option menu in Accessibility part, to use "PDA pause". Then when you open your PDA, your food and water doesn't go down so you can read everything with ease. Glad you enjoy this game, its one of best survival game ever made :) There is an icon on bottom right of the screen when you can scan something.

[@MentalEiva]

oohhh, thank you so much for the tips, that’s so handy✨🫶🏻

[@Dnisc]

Whhhat?! This is great information!!! Thnx

[@jeronimirmaximus3367]

Very handy indeed! I always wait till I’m back at my base for reading (near my food supply) 😅

[@UnbelieverInME]

Optionally, if you build a habitat and a chair of some sort within it, your food and drink meters will not go down while sitting. That's how I did it before the Pause While Open option was there.

[@globalist1990]

Best advice. It also pauses whenever you are sorting your inventory in lockers.

[@TheKickKat]

Out of all of the playthroughs of this game that I have watched, you are the first person I have ever seen routinely swap their empty tank for a hot spare. I did not know that is a thing. Very clever. You also did not fill your inventory completely full of acid mushrooms first thing upon entering the water. You rebel.

[@MentalEiva]

haha thank you😅

[@the_omg3242]

@@MentalEiva To expand on that, once you get the materials to build a bunch of high capacity tanks, you can half fill your inventory with them and do some extended dives while exploring the deep.

[@sl9sl9]

Few people know this, but in a pinch you can use bladderfish as an emergency oxygen supply. Yes consuming them raw increases your oxygen by a small amount! Plus they only take up 1x1 inventory space and in the early game chances are you're already carrying a few of them...

[@MentalEiva]

@@sl9sl9 Damn, that’s so cool!

[@globalist1990]

The floating device can travel 215m straight up in about 10 seconds. Or replenish 15 seconds worth of O2. Each take 1 slot in the inventory. So 6 (minimum O2 tank space) is worth 90 seconds. Extra O2 tanks slow you down (not on a seaglide though). A lot of early tools seem to be unpopular, but they are actually really good. I just beaten the game on hardcore without using any vehicle (only seaglide). Vehicles are expensive to build and upgrade (loads of titanium), while you can go 2000m deep with just a rebreather (coral brain ftw).

[@SLAAQ_Music]

Most Subnautica playthroughs don't bother to read the PDA, and instead rely on trial-and-error or advice from chat (if streaming). You on the other hand are playing intelligently, which is much more enjoyable to watch. Subscribed.

[@Hauke-ph5ui]

@prdiptyak when this game came out in 2018 in early access, it was the main part of the game, i spent hours build massive bases, but if you saved and came back, all the parts were all over the place (even spread out in the sky), it was wild, but so fun, some of the things that the developers have done annoyed me SO much...

1:08:13 lol she thinks the Stalker fish are the "big ones"! First time seeing Eiva and I like her style, such as she didn't skip reading necessary info in the PDA. It's funny watching someone else play and I'm going crazy when she doesn't notice something that to me seems obvious, like the spinning circle and symbol showing that something can be scanned. OTOH, in spite of many hours in game I never noticed recipes could be pinned on screen so I wonder in what ways I'd drive other people nuts if they watched me play.

[@SebastianWeinberg]

0:08 - *“I'm excited, 'cause I love everything ocean-themed.”* Let's hope that love survives. 'Cause this is the game where ocean-lovers come to gain a fear of water, and where thalassophobes come to become _completely catatonic._ 😉 Nah, I'm just kidding. While it _can_ be scary, it's reputation is a bit overblown. The reputation for scariness, that is - the reputation for being fun, pretty, and awesome is well-earned. 15:04 - *“Damn, that's so deep!“* …she says, while paddling in the "Safe Shallows". If you keep playing, you'll look back on this exclamation and see how hilarious it really is. 😁 24:44 - *“ **_‘Old_** Cooked Boomerang’ Is it gonna be… Is it gonna spoil after some time?”* No, it spoils after _no time at all!_ As you've no doubt found out by now. 27:09 - *“We need cave sulphur. Cave. Must be somewhere in caves.”* This is usually a sticking point for new players, who take a long time before they find any - although you _have_ already read one of the often missed hints earlier, namely that it can be found inside certain flowers. 58:32 - *“I'm quite scared to go there, because there were some huge, huge dudes, and they looked aggressive.”* This is another one of those statements that will be absolutely _hilarious_ in hindsight. 59:23 - _"Oxygen."_ - *“Ah. Hold on. Oh no!”* I cannot tell you how many times I died in this game, when I went to switch to my secondary air tank, only to find that I had forgotten to recharge it, last time. 😆 You're lucky that you were within a few seconds of the surface, when it happened.

[@MentalEiva]

haha I kind of already see how funny these are now! And omg thank you for saying that you also used a secondary tank, got some comment recently that made me feel like I’m a complete dumbo for doing that😂

[@SebastianWeinberg]

@@MentalEiva As the diving time per tank gets increasingly longer, the tank size in the inventory grid gets larger, and oxygen is more easily replenished at the Seamoth or Prawn suit, the trade-off between inventory space and dive time becomes increasingly weighted against a double tank strategy in the late game. But in the early to mid-game, I _definitely_ always go with two tanks, exactly the same way you do.

[@leofhr2966]

@@MentalEiva Dang didn't expect such a quick reply, also I love your playthrough btw, it's incredibly well played and intelligent, most people don't read the Databank or PDA, so they get lost in the game early on because the game doesn't hold your hand or give you directions, it literally throws you in the deep end and makes you learn how to swim through it all literally. Which I love honestly, it's a real full survival style experience. The PDA truly helps feed you hints and clues of information to guide you through things you wouldn't realize at first, so it's HIGHLY recommended to read it all, no matter how "boring" it might seem to you or viewers which btw we love seeing you read, the reactions and us learning through the process together is a lot better than watching someone fool about with no idea of what they are doing.

Maybe you're already aware but my one and only beginner tip for Subnautica is that you swim a little bit faster if you have both hands free (press the button for the currently equipped item again).

[@Supersonic_Sloth]

@@MentalEiva I guess it depends on your definition of "good". 😉 You are obviously more than smart enough to figure things out, especially in a climate of not getting rushed by others. Will you figure every little detail of Subnautica out during your first playthrough? Obviously not, I don't think anybody does. Is that a problem, or does it prevent you from having a good time? Not at all. Your game, your rules. By the way, it also pains me that you think it necessary to apologise for moments in which you simply enjoy certain aspects of the game, like following an interesting fish or appreciating an island vista or sunset. Is that for fear of not "progressing" fast enough to satisfy commenters? Overall, I think you may be better off not reading comments until you finish Subnautica, if only because of the constant flow of spoilers. And yeah, I realise the irony of me writing this statement in the form of a comment.

@@MentalEiva Wait. It turns out that I wasn't using experimental mode which allowed me to pin recipes plus other stuff. It's all good now. I love watching people play this game for the first time. Subnautica was the first game I ever bought (back in August 2015).

[@zelig7165]

yeah its beautiful but dnt be fooled, this is actually a horror game. . . kinda,,

[@MentalEiva]

Yep, 6 episodes in I got a little scares here and there😂

No, it is _not_ a horror game. It's an _adventure_ game. And sometimes adventures are scary. Sometimes _really_ scary. Now and then, downright terrifying. That's just the nature of adventure. You know the definition of adventure, don't you? Someone else having a really bad time. Lucky you, you're playing game as "Someone Else."
