Crysis Warhead vs Subnautica
Crysis Warhead
Crysis Warhead is somewhat like a spin-off mainly because it doesn't really continue the plotline in the main Crysis franchise. Instead, I'd venture as far to say that this game might be a prequel to the original Crysis... maybe? Anyway, in this game, you play as Sergeant Sykes who find hismelf on a life-risking mission to retrieve a cargo that's incredibly important behind enemy lines during the Korean war. The gameplay in this game is amazing visceral and intuitive, and of course, between the suit's abilities and the wide range of weapons, you'll have multiple methods to take out your enemies and walk away smiling.There are also aliens of course - it's just Crysis being Crysis - but the enemy AI is a whole lot more intelligent and may just catch you off guard if you're not careful.
As great as Crysis Warhead is, the game can be a tad bit short for its full price. However, if you can get it during a promotion, the game will be very well worth the experience, the time and the price.
Subnautica
Subnautica is a virtual reality game set in a gorgeous and open underwater world that may bring to mind epic explorative-styled adventure games like Abzu. However, interestingly, the underwater world you’ll be experiencing is not of the Earth. Instead, the game had you crash landed on an alien ocean world teeming with otherworldly life that may be friendly or hostile – you’ll just have to find out which on your own! The game even has a beautiful yet extremely dangerous “nightlife” that will require substantial preparation.Aside from being an explorative game, Subnautica will also see you scavenge, craft and survive in this alien world as well as to build your very own underwater habitat to be used as your base of operations while you go off on exciting adventures to learn more about the planet you are on.
Subnautica may still be in early access, but the game already feels like a complete game. The development team behind this game is also very active, providing its players with new updates and fixes frequently. When it comes to virtual reality games, Subnautica is definitely one of the few that is actually worth more than the price it asks for.
