Slime Rancher vs Subnautica
Slime Rancher
Slime Rancher is a pretty unique ranch simulation that's played in a first person view. In this game, you play the role of a futuristic pioneer who has just settled down on a planet filled with slime. Your job, like the gold miners of old, is to collect and ranch these slimes, make sure they are fed with their respective favorite food types, collect the valuable plorts that they spit out, and turn it into some profits!However, not all types of slimes are friendly. In fact, slimes that are friendly can turn hostile -
these are called Tars - simply by combining with multiple plorts from other species of slimes. Tars will gobble up everything nearby be it slimes or food stuff alike. Aside from having a whole new, and alien, world to explore, there are many ways for you to upgrade your ranch as well just so you can unlock new zones and hence, new slime types for your collection.
Slime Rancher is likely the most recent "big thing" among indie games, and although it won't be the last, the game definitely deserves its shot to fame. The game is incredibly easy to get into and once you're in, you'll be completely hooked! If you're looking for a game that's somewhat casual for the weekends, Slime Rancher is the perfect game to play.
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.
