Don't expect to kill fish in a future Subnautica 2 patch: 'You are here to exist on this planet, not to dominate it'

Since Subnautica 2's cetacean-sized early access launch last week, a contingent of its players have been vocal about their frustration over their inability to retaliate against its predatory sea life with their own lethal intent. Subnautica 2 devs at Unknown Worlds haven't been swayed by those complaints, urging players to seek out one of the many other survival games if they're looking for a sandbox where they're free to kill whatever they find.

As my ancient PC gets ever older and my hopes of upgrading it someday grow ever dimmer, I spend a lot of time peering through skeptical eyes at upcoming game trailers. "Looks good, but will I be able to run it? I bet those slick graphics are going to set my GPU on fire. Reflective puddles? In this economy?"
At least one game I won't have to worry about is Outward 2. Nine Dots' survival RPG sequel is launching in early access on July 17, and according to the talking potato in the video below, it'll run on just about anything—and still manage to look good, too. And yes, when I said talking potato, I meant talking potato.
