I am so jealous of anyone on their first playthrough of this amazing game! Avoid spoilers and googling, and don't rush through it! Enjoy 🐟🐠

Don't worry bro there will be subnatica 3 2025

[@RyuchiZorro]

Wow, a KZbinr that _doesn't_ have thalassophobia! I thought they were only a myth! Happy to find your playthrough. :)

[@victoriaspongecake2]

Thankyou! 😊 but yes, it is true, phobia free on this channel XD

[@alfandreasstrayrambo]

I would love to see the uncut version of this gameplay. The struggle to get going :D

[@victoriaspongecake2]

@alfandreasstrayrambo I think the raw footage was about 2 hours, alot of it was just me silently swimming around 😅

[@R0d_1984]

@@victoriaspongecake2 Nothing swimming around i did ALOT of it, played this in early access back in 2018-2019...

Your PDA is google for this game. It just doesn't have google maps. Scan everything and read up on it. Reading that the creepvine is edible could have saved you. The only other advice I'll give is to build every single item in the game and use it. Thanks! Good luck!

[@Hauke-ph5ui]

I second the "scan and read everything".

[@ExcentricDragon]

I wish it had some kind of map mode that would cartograph the place as you went, or developed a scanner to do that

[@richardgodivala4680]

Took me ages to find cave sulphur too. Best advice is - scan everything, and read what the databank says about it. So much information....

wish episode would be less cut out

[@OrbitalCookie]

In subnautica, cave sulphur finds you

[@victoriaspongecake2]

It sure does XD

[@eddiemitza2544]

The RNG Gods have not been kind to your first playthrough, I see.

[@Hauke-ph5ui]

One tipp: You swim faster when your hands are empty. To switch batteries in the tool you're holding press R, then you can switch the battery. PS: If you die and loose stuff you can recover it at the location of your death - the items do not despawn.

[@yutzytv]

2:30 nah, nah below the surface isn't bad - immediately gets mauled lol

[@lipgloss202]

scan and read everything

Since this is a blind playthrough: Do NOT, for your own sake, pick up any time capsules. Many contain heavy spoilers. I had my first playthrough of Subnautica completely ruined by a time capsule I picked up in the early game. I didn't know what they were, and didn't know to avoid them. And now I can never get the experience of playing unspoiled Subnautica back.

[@victoriaspongecake2]

Ohh okay thankyou! I find one in a session I played the other day but luckily nothing crazy was in it, so might avoid them for now from now on!

[@petipez5]

I think if you want to charge your items you need a battery in your inventory and press "R". If it doesnt, try to right click on the battery from your inventory.

[@victoriaspongecake2]

@@petipez5 amazing thankyou! I'll try it next time 😊

[@MrACSonline]

Yes, you can press R to remove or replace a battery in any tool. Which means if you are out exploring and your flashlight runs out, you can always borrow a battery from another tool. ;)

[@R0d_1984]

You're an Aussie in the U.K?

[@victoriaspongecake2]

Kind of yeah!

[@maxkorn3910]

"I`m going to get angry at this game" - so typical. Its not me who is not very smart, its game.

[@MrACSonline]

I should mention in case you weren’t aware, Subnautica has no auto save, so save the game before you do anything risky! Back in the day when the game wasn’t as stable as it is now, I lost many hours of gameplay from it crashing without me saving. It doesn’t crash much these days, but better safe than sorry!

[@victoriaspongecake2]

@@MrACSonline ah thankyou! I've been cruising around paying not attention to saving so I shall start remembering to do that!

[@knuckie8056]

I've only played Subnautica Below Zero. This looks very very similar and just as fun. I wonder which one is best 🤔

[@DanceFacility]

Most DEFINITELY this one. Compared to this, below zero sucks.

[@cosmicdraco7041]

I love to watch new playthroughs of subnautica. I absolutely love this game. And it's so great to see it played differently. Amazing video Victoria. Also it was shocking that you don't have deep thalassophobia.

[@victoriaspongecake2]

Thanks so much! Yep phobia free playthrough XD but it is succeeding at creeping me out at least once an episode at this point

[@cosmicdraco7041]

@@victoriaspongecake2 it gets better,the deeper you go.

[@MrACSonline]

I’ve loved this game since it was in beta. And I love watching first play throughs and I look forward to following you on your Subnautica journey! After you finish the game, you should check out some of the early beta play throughs to see how far the game evolved to its current finished form. You can also check out Subnautica Below Zero - sort of a continuation of the storyline. Also, the devs are currently hard at work on a new Subnautica 2 (they don’t consider Below Zero as number 2, lol) so lots to look forward to!

[@huntr5000]

I too have never watched anyone play this, but still haven't bought it for myself so I'm excited for this series!

[@victoriaspongecake2]

@@huntr5000 I hope you'll enjoy it!

[@tomesofawesome8041]

I've posted this comment on every video I've ever seen of people's first time, so here we go again. Most games just say no when you try to do something. Subnautica says yes. If you can squeeze it, if you can bull shit it, they let you do it. So I hope you continue on. Because it's going to be a hell of a ride. And one that will ACTIVELY REWARD YOU, for using your imagination. So have fun, good luck, and live the journey! ❤

[@victoriaspongecake2]

I'm really enjoying it and want to explore it all 😊 I shall fully embrace the Subnautica experience! x
