Anyone playing this on PS4, now that it's available? It's on my wishlist, but it may be closer to Christmas before I'm able to grab it. I'm curious what you think of it if you are playing it - graphics, gameplay, controller mapping, story, etc.

It's on my list, but probably after I pick up RDR2 and Ace Combat 7.

All while biding time for TLOU2...

Its another 'proper' PS4 Pro enhanced game with a 1440p resolution, parity with Xbox One X.

Guess its not using the Cobra engine

. I'll probably check it out at some point. I'll wait till its been out a while and drops in price.

I played on the PC for a bit. It's a fun lil game. And by fun I mean OMG terrifying...
Not a great deal of replay value in my opinion, but of course YMMV on that score.

Dash it all Old Duck!
Saw the thread title and thought you were giving us a review!

I had lots of fun with Subnautica, completed the game on PC. Quite a few things to discover, some in unlikely places! I heartily recommend it if you like exploring.

I'll probably pick this up during Christmas vacation. One of the reasons I didn't sign up for DW2 (before I knew I'd be restricted to Solo) is that I've got so many games I'm enjoying on PS4 these days. DW2 is a huge commitment IIRC, but there be dragons to slay, monsters to hunt, and soon submarines to repair! And someday, horses to brush down and baths to take

Just bought it since I can't play Elite much due to some weird freeze and crashes. Played only 2-3 hours but really enjoying it so far. Always loved that kind of survival / exploration / building game.

Another brillant survival game on PS4 is The Long Dark...not good for my young hearth though

Surviving cold, dehydration, starving, injuries, illness and those god damn wolves !!!
