Elite Dangerous vs Subnautica
Elite Dangerous
Elite Dangerous is a MMO space simulation game that not only offers players a ton of customizatable spaceships of all shapes and sizes; it also provides players with a massive open world galaxy to explore and have adventures in. In this game, you'll need to do whatever it takes to improve your rank among the Elites and there are multiple ways to do so - you can literally craft your own legacy. You can take the easy-way out and become a space smuggler, a space pirate, or a bounty hunter, or you can opt to earn a honest living by being a trader or a miner. The galaxy in this game is very much alive and will change based on your actions and decisions... as well as the actions and decisions of all the other players playing in the same galaxy as you do.Unknown to many, Elite Dangerous is actually the third sequel to the popular 1984's genre-defining Elite game farnchise. This polished and drastically upgraded version will definitely be able to appeal to a whole new generation of space sim fans. If you happen to be one of them, you'll want to check this game out!
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.
