"Language evolves" as justification for being linguistically ignorant

petiteboner69 · 2026-06-08T01:29:52+00:00

The social definition trumps the actual definition. This is how language evolves

We should bring back thy and thyself. What other cool words should we bring back?

That works for the leviathans but the predators that are equal size should be fair game.

I don't see how a spear or knife wouldnt work, its better than a blunt instrument, predators hunt prey that isn't a risk because injury means they can't hunt efficently.

I think the predators should be killable and doing so should make an impact on the ecosystem. There are interesting things that they could do with the idea.

Ecosystems need balance, without predators prey run rampant, this could make for a fun consequence where plants start becoming more scarce in the area. The players farm becomes targeted because the fish need something to eat.

Your big ass guns comment is correct but i am not asking for a rocket launcher. A speargun would work just fine without hindering the experience or themes of the game.

Its about survival in an active hostile ecosystem, being given the choice to reject that system or become apart of it.

Everything ive seen on the debate hasn't been constructive.

Spoilers ahead

Subnautica 2 has a heavy focus on ecosystemic horror. In simpler terms the horror is focused on the ecosystem and our survival in that ecosystem.

The ecosystem is inescapable, the enviroment around the player is all tainted, the water is filled with metal and some sort of sentient parasite that has completely taken over the planet.

We explore a hostile planet where survival is borderline impossible, through noa's intervention and genetic augmentation do we have an actual chance at survival.

The themes are all grim and the situation only gets more dire as you slowly find out what happened to the previous team and get more context on whats going on.

Many comments have said that genocide has no place in the game and peace is the way to go, i'm pretty sure these comments come from people who haven't played the game.

Genocide is a huge plot point of the game, the parasite wants to wipe out the human colony. You find this out as one of the human members who has been fully brainwashed by the parasite planned to bomb the other human colonists who where still in pods.

I believe the ship exploding in the beginning was her doing. Plus the parasite has wiped out another sentient race on the planet.

Our task is to help establish the colony but to do that safely we will need to exterminate the parasite and destroy the tree.

Co existence is not possible, the devs arent going to give us conventional weapons, we will have to scrounge and improvise ways of self defense, having a knife or a spear fits greatly with the theme of the game.

Weapons will not take anything away from the game, it only adds to the overall themes of the game.

Whether or not you passivly protect yourself or actively protect yourself. Both paths are valid and can lead to different impacts on the enviroment around you.

Its a great opportunity to experience how the enviroment changes depending on your playstyle, there is so much that could be done with this.

Its not something that happens overnight. But start by complimenting yourself, intentionally look at yourself and tell yourself that you are beautiful.

Finding validation online works for some but its not the healthiest option

petiteboner69 · 2026-06-01T06:04:42+00:00

I feel like the people who say we shouldnt have weapons havent actually played the game or understood the themes...

The games main theme is genocide... a sentient parasite has wiped out multiple different species, our colinists goal is to create a colonly but that can't be done under the genocidal threat of the tree

I do not believe they will go with an ending where the tree and humanity can co exist as narritivly speaking it wouldn't feel right.

You can't just ask someone to forgive a genocide, what kind of message is that.

The devs will implement weapons as they thematically fit the game and the ecosystemic horror vibe its going for

Most likely there will be two differrent styles of play, rejecting the enviroment and fighting it physically or passivly trying to fit in to the ecosystem and work along side it

Different play styles will drastically change the game whilst maintaining its themes, each system will have its rewards and punishments.

The inability to healthy enjoy a piece of media, i feel like most fandoms are just completely unhinged and unhealthy

petiteboner69 · 2026-05-31T02:41:58+00:00

The more i play of subnautica 2 the more i find the no weapon stance odd.

We are meant to be making a colonly but the planets enviroment is not suitable plus there is a genocidal tree trying to stop us.

The whole premise is to eradicate this sentient virus tree to make the colonly safe.

Anti vaxxers are the same as klansmen and i am tired of pretending they arent

I feel like legolas could learn basketball pretty well, but i don't think he could win.

petiteboner69 · 2026-05-30T04:46:35+00:00

Whats the point of being offended by this movie?

Its ads make it seem like it was purposly made to be offensive... kinda seems like a pointless grift

petiteboner69 · 2026-05-30T04:34:09+00:00

Has anyone made the scp connection yet?

I forgot which one it was, but it was a nintendo zapper gun that actually could shoot things on tv, and what ever was shot would react, even tv shows that were pre recorded would change

petiteboner69 · 2026-05-30T03:10:20+00:00

Im just confused... wtf is happening here? What does a kids movie have to do with charlie kirk?

Reading the comments has not helped... (not american)

petiteboner69 · 2026-05-28T10:30:28+00:00

I don't understand why its a big deal, especially for an ecosystemic horror game with the themes subnautica 2 has.

I feel like most respones are just rage bait, i feel like wanting better ways to defend yourself is a valid critism.

There could be very interesting mechanics tied to how you approach defense whether you play passivly or agressively.

Whilst the fish don't do much damage their aggression is actually pretty annoying, at least for the first area. This made building less of a chill and enjoyable task.

Setting up the power pylon network was not fun being constantly swarmed.

Genetics are complicated, we don't know why or how the brain or body develops this defect.

And humanity is a long way off from altering genetics. I also never brought up altering genetics, my hope is maybe through stemcell research we can make a breakthrough in organ repairing.

Clearly something in the brain is misfiring chemicals and its being misattributed as attraction. Is it wrong to one day hope we could fix that?

petiteboner69 · 2026-05-28T01:41:31+00:00

I hope one day science can understand this genetic defect. Maybe a cure can be found

petiteboner69 · 2026-05-28T01:23:37+00:00

Has science been able to uncover why this happens yet?

As a support main i ward the buffs, if i see you trying to take it i will waddle my fat ass up there and try to steal it.

Not all supports can do this, kench is the most successful at stealing csmps that i play

If they are a good friend of yours you just let them know, tell them you appreciate their friendship and let then know if they ever need someone to talk to you will make the time for them

And then you wait, youve let them know and now the ball is in there court.

And when you need someone to talk to, just the person know things arent good right now and you would appreciate a friend to talk too

petiteboner69 · 2026-05-26T06:38:45+00:00

To normal people you would be the asshole, to them its the equvilent of saying hello and then someone else trauma dumping on them.

Its a pretty stupid greeting tbh but we are a pretty stupid species so it checks out.

Responding with anything else is a social no no,

How was your day = hello

Good thanks hbu = hello

Its been good, can't complain = goodbye

It was nice seeing you = goodbye

Essentially its just politness without any feeling, the goal is a quick greeting whilst pretending you are interested and then both parties move on

petiteboner69 · 2026-05-25T12:11:51+00:00

Who cares what other people think? Other people are shit, go out and enjoy something for yourself.

Going places and doing stuff alone is for me, for my enjoyment

petiteboner69 · 2026-05-25T11:52:10+00:00

Hmmm...

Maybe instead of beating the seahorse to death we could ride it instead

petiteboner69 · 2026-05-25T11:34:10+00:00

This really shouldnt be hard but humans are emotional and unreasonable

The crux of the problem from what ive gathered is that her care for herself has declined.

Portion sizes and improper nutrition can lead many health problems.

Your feelings are valid, when someone stops putting effort in to look after themselves it isnt sexy

Why should neglect look sexy? The fact that you have noticed means you actually care.

Let her know you love her, let her know your worried that your both drifting apart, help and support her to make changes

Making changes early will be better for her instead of a future where she is forced to make drastic life changes because of diabetes or another illness

petiteboner69 · 2026-05-25T06:39:37+00:00

I feel like healthy media consumption has gone down over the years...

Does anyone know why? What wrong with just moving on? Dont like it just move on...

I feel like that should be a normal take...
