IGN GAVE SUBNAUTICA 2 A 7/10 FOR "TOO MUCH WATER"
437,656 people are playing it right now..
Mixtape - a 3-hour walking sim with 2,245 peak players - got glowing press coverage and praise from the same outlets.
Let that sink in. 437,000 vs 2,245. And Subnautica is the one that got the mediocre score.
Same outlet. Few weeks ago. Mouse: P.I. For Hire - 6/10. Too much cheese. The protagonist is a mouse.
At this point I genuinely don't know who these reviews are written for. It's clearly not the players.
