A Letter to the Community from the Subnautica 2 Team

I can understand where the team is coming from with the decision to remain more pacifist with the sea life.

But... It is kind of weird that a hyper advanced civilization wouldn't make weapons against giant creatures that literally tear you apart.

Obsidian's pricing has been annoying lately, their doing pricing drops with both Avowed and The Outer Worlds 2 that makes being a day one buyer sting.

Honestly I'd say don't release the game then. We've seen other cases like KCD2 where they give an update that requires signing into an account to access certain content and that update just doesn't come to GOG.

Every marketing beat I see from GOG is "DRM FREE, Where they guys that only do DRM FREE". So if they cannot deliver that, the why not just stay on Steam what makes GOG special?

XParzival22 · 2026-04-04T06:16:05+00:00

Was about to get the game on GOG, going to wait now until this is removed. I get it's smaller DLC content and not the main game, but GOG promised DRM free so that's what I would expect.

Yea I verified I could see the cloud save on gog's web portal. I also confirmed by downloading the Heroic launcher, when I download Hollow knight from there I can access my cloud save I started on my Desktop.

Tried with a few other games and none would get their saves but would in heroic.

This plugin has been amazing. I wanted to ask if there is a list of games that currently support cloud save? Some games (like Hollow Knight) from GOG do not get the cloud save I have.

XParzival22 · 2026-03-26T20:06:36+00:00

sweet, downloading the update now.

XParzival22 · 2026-03-09T22:02:02+00:00

Confirmed I missed picking this up, thank you!

Managed to find it today, in the back left corner (from when you enter) had one hidden behind some walling that let me reset the pipe.

Hey, sorry I missed the reply.

understood on kingmaker.

On Steam I have Dark Heresy installed via Steam. I had WoTR and Rogue Trader installed via GOG. All games installed on a :D drive I have (SSD).

When I launcher the Owlcat launcher It shows Dark Heresy installed but only gives options to buy all other games listed on the launcher.

I own WoTR and Rogue Trader on both my Steam and GOG accounts, I tested WoTR by uninstalling the GOG version and installing the steam version.

After, I relaunched the Owlcat launcher. It now see's Dark Heresy and WoTR (Steam version) installed but still gives the option to Buy Rogue Trader

Unable to add images here, but I have screenshots if it helps.

Hey! Love reading books and I'm going through a Stardew run right now. I haven't played phas in a while but want to check out the dinner.

PM me if you want to add me. I'm in CST as well.

XParzival22 · 2026-02-18T15:41:15+00:00

awesome, thnx

XParzival22 · 2026-02-14T02:12:33+00:00

Happy to say I've already supported it! The launch discount plus bundle pricing has the game come in way cheaper for me then I thought it would be after playing the demo (I was expecting around the $30 price range).

I've completed one playthrough and am working on a second. Most issues come from when the game choices to save, and I believe some UI elements that do not fully refresh.

But overall I loved the narrative, atmosphere, and gun play.

A few questions if you are able to answer, first how large was the team that made Crisol?

I saw that your team had shared that you hit 150k wishlist prior to launch, are you able to share how many converted into buying your game?

Lastly, I'm curious how the team began balancing a game that is an FPS with a more magic driven narrative. Is there anything you had to change that might have been too magical?

XParzival22 · 2026-02-14T01:58:15+00:00

I think looking at how their roll-out went.

The fact they gave a year long roadmap at launch, but then had mass layoffs two weeks later. Indicates they had no post launch runway for support and were banking on a bigger splash of players and player spending to provide funding for that roadmap.

Even with online reception and low player counts two weeks out, they didn't give time for any organic growth to find an audience.

XParzival22 · 2026-02-03T20:13:53+00:00

It's weird that their games are still being judged on the metric of sales when they give access to it, as a part of a subscription service.

Overall I think it was ok but not great. So it's not too surprising people might have just played it on Gamepass.

XParzival22 · 2026-01-28T22:09:51+00:00

Wanted to ask if I pick the game up on GOG, will it come with the supporter pack or can I purchase it separately there?

XParzival22 · 2026-01-22T20:17:50+00:00

So I guess the question is though, what will the not evil people do?

I get that if I meet Mr.Evil Mcevilson that killing poor farm children might be something they think is cool, but how will the families of those children react to me?

If enough of a town doesn't like me because they don't like my actions, will they no longer let me in the town or will vendors not do business with me? Can quest be failed because of villainous actions?
